Crazy cat lady living with her husband in SWVA. Known to play in the woodshop, make messes in the kitchen, read a book or two, and avoid peopling in person.

This retired motorcycle pen kit details life on two wheels - an eagle's head for the pen tip, twin pipes for the pen clip, and a kickstart click. The woods paired with these beauties (from L to R) - Honey Locust, Brazilian Ebony, Ebiara, Honduran Rosewood, and Chestnut.

Another book for February! It's easy to love and recommend Maya Angelou and Toni Morrison books - but if you love Science Fiction/Fantasy - you should read The Fifth Season by N.K Jemisin. I just started it but it's wonderful so far...

This February - I'm sharing the books that I have devoured and admired about the black Americans that have shaped and contributed more than most.
First and foremost, Katherine Johnson - a brilliant mathematician and NASA employee that was critical in our start of space exploration.

There are probably only two things that'll get me through the next four years - our cats and alcohol.

This is our Petey - she's the mom of Muppet, Ali, Bruce, and Marble. She showed up on our doorstep over 3 years ago, super pregnant and with a puncture wound in her leg. So we accepted the distribution ticket and took her and her babies in.
Fun fact: Petey has never meowed.

Smash (one of our tuxedo boys) came in, laid down on me, and proceeded to stretch his beans in my face. So here's a bean photo as payment for his invasion of space.

This is Dot - and a rare event where she graced me with her presence and used me as a pillow. She is one of our four gray & white cow kitties.
It's funny how much I adore black cats and torties but out of the twelve kitties we own, we only have a single tortie and no black voids.

It's been a while since I've been in the workshop but since Thanksgiving, I've been brushing away the cobwebs and turning some more. I have 16 pens ready to list on Etsy and a few more to get done by the end of the week! It feels good to get back at it....

Muppet is the oldest of our 2.5 years old kittens - we originally named her Harry but after her personality bloomed, it was changed to Muppet. Here's a perfect example why.

Filled the Cat TVs a couple days ago - the birds are happily emptying them. We used to keep bird feeders all our house but quickly learned that trash pandas or our neighborhood bear would just empty them at night. These are safe on the second floor.

Fluffy beans that make my day - Muppet is our long-haired, insane but adorable cat. Part of the four kitten clowder we opted to keep and each kitten is a completely different personality.
