Refinishing and reimagining old furniture pieces.
A tea cart, originally dark brown and left on the neighbor's curb on the left.
One the right, my grandmother's old console, oriniginally stained a fake pecan.

Nabi here: hate to break the news, but we cats find all sorts of things to do in human absence. There's sleeping, bird watching, hunting for toast crumbs, boxes, paper in boxes. Need I go on? Illustration of box with orange impediment.

So glad my best friend and I are still together after 15 years, during which:
a couple broken legs -me, cellulitis - her,
sticking our leg through the fence and ripping it up - not me
All I ever wanted was a horse. May you all have that "one wish" granted.

Nabi here: controllable heat blankie sounds like something mom should put on her Christmas list - along with a blow torch. Seriously. For meringues she says. At least she didn't wish for a flame thrower. Arggh. She just read the news.....

Nabi here: I don't sing, but I do chirp like a cheetah - if you need that in the choir. The orange menace shrieks, so count her out. Although she seems to think she'd be good as Mary in the nativity. Warning: she'd eat the baby...

Nabi here: I can get with the wang chung.
The orange idiot has to have special-special food, so guess who gets her wonderful leftover special food mixed with my kitty weight watchers; it is for skin and coat. Mom says I have the fur density of a sea otter already.
Whoopee! Picture me celebrating

Hidden all summer by leaves, some sort of nest.
Never saw any creatures in this tree, so could just have been a failed attempt.
