Adding sparkle to the top of my sewing desk; little bit of twilight sky, little bit of magic.

Varnish next and then it can be installed! Finally. Next up...the cutting tabletop.

As a much needed moment of peace, here’s an elderly rescue cat asleep on a heating pad with one of his favourite toys in reach.

Imagine starting a car that hadn't run in 21 years, that's 15 billion miles away in interstellar space. That's what the NASA team just did with Voyager's thrusters. People are amazing. jpl.nasa.gov/news/nasas-v...

Hey, Canada 🍁! Positive interference from the North! On April 28th, vote based on candidates' merits and hearts that show care — not on messages that create distances among us or simply on someone who looks like you — to bring joy across the nation. ❤️

Every situation, no matter how overwhelming it appears, carries within it the seeds of change. So if your present situation is making you worried, remember that everything is temporary. From the Yukon, Canada, I am sharing joy, hope, and positivity.

All of the asymmetry that was prevalent in fashion illustration of the early #1910s is realised here in this cobalt blue velvet and gold lace gown. There is a languid air to the structure of fashion during this short period, of details seemingly haphazard @phxart.bsky.social #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡

Older photo of one of my cats but I love it. Mara Jade still likes to watch videos in bed with me. 🥰
A gray diluted tabby cat is laying on a bed watching an animated video on a tablet with one paw reaching out to touch the screen. It is nighttime and the background is hidden in the dark.

Do you need some emotional floof support today?

Color photograph. Up close photo of a long haired gray, black, and tan tabby cat looking straight at the camera with her head slightly tilted as if asking a question and expecting an answer. She is perched atop a teal color mat on top of a deep brown cabinet.

Apparently I am done with my embroidery this evening. At least, according to my foster boy anyway. 😸

My newest fosters arrived today. Bonded, older cats. One is 8 yrs & is palliative (black). The other is 11 yrs (orange). They're both staying until end-of-life for the one, then it'll be support time for the 2nd. Unfortunately, FiV+ plus age & health issues meant they've been difficult to adopt.
Two short-hair adult cats pictured on the back of a couch. The orange cat is sitting in a loaf position while the black cat is sitting upright. They are facing opposite directions.

I'm in need of a rug in my bedroom. I have a stash of upholstery samples, so patchwork rug is going to happen. Unfortunately my QA supervisor is hampering production. But she is very happy & so very adorable. #catsofbluesky

With great whiskers come great responsibility…and floof.

Color photograph. A long haired tan, black, and gray tabby is sitting on her hind legs atop a tan colored platform shelf on a cat tree. She is caught midyawn and her mouth is stretched fully. Her face is in focus and you see her very long white whiskers caught by the light behind her.

A short-eared owl locked onto its target. These aerial acrobats are masters of the sky, maneuvering with breathtaking speed and precision.

Trump is freaking because we are standing up to him.
MAGA is spooked by our hockey slang (seriously).
They ask us to "turn down the rhetoric" but accuse of us being as ungrateful as "Ukraine."
Canada is Ukraine and Trump is a cheap Putin.

Because both (1) Spice deserves your likes and adoration for her hilarious quirks and (2) Bluesky deserves the laughs and opportunity to caption one of Spice’s trademark behaviors.

Up close color photograph. A gray, tan and brown tabby cat sits up on her hind legs and looks particularly human as she stares at the camera. She looks a bit like a meerkat as she is perched atop a red platform of a scratching post.

Canada is Trump's number one enemy.
There is dark method in his madness. American Autarky is the economic philosophy of MAGA.
They stole it from Nazi economics.
It is about building a tariff wall and relying on politics of plunder.
