Do something outside today! Even if it is just taking a walk and enjoying the scenery! Plant something, feed the birds, clean up your yard, pick up trash. Get out and do SOMETHING! Our Earth is in need, and we are the keepers!
May your day be filled with sights and sounds of something special, Mother Nature!
Make a difference!
Good Evening!
I haven't done much to blog about lately....but I did finish my first block for the Kitty Kitty RR, this is for the House Cats Group. I had a ball getting this together!
I am working on the second block for the Alley Cats Group, so keep checking back for a picture of it! It is going to be all about my Speckles....she is my sweet kitty!
Well, that is all for now....hope everyone is having a super Thursday and a terrific week!

Good Morning all! I must say, living in Indiana brings more and more challenges each day! For the past 3 weeks we have had the most incredible weather! Above average temperatures....now....it's frickin' freezing! Yesterday's high temperature was 75*F, now it is a whopping 31! UGH!!!!!!!! I'm ready for spring and summer....no doubt about it now! I managed to get out of this house for a few minutes to take some pictures of my spring beauties, and they are beauties this year! All of this spring cleaning has put me in a place where I want to be outside playing in the dirt....after all, gardening is therapy for a dirty mind...HA!
So, I thought I'd share some of my pics with you all today! I haven't had time to get out and clean up my flower beds yet, but hopefully, by the time this weather breaks I'll be ready to get it done! I had to get the yard mowed and that is as far as I got....but hey, my house is almost clean! HA!

 You aren't just the life of the party, you are the party! You mix a good drink, bust out some great music, and know how to get down. |

Just have a few minutes this morning, but I wanted to share pics of the work that I did on Lisa's Mardi Gras RR. I loved this block! It was simply gorgeous and I hope she likes the work I did!
Here I outlined the music notes with metallic threads that matched and did the seam treatments on each side. The top is a series of straight stitches with detached chains at the tip. I also added hot fix crystals on the opposite end from the detached chains. On the bottom, the fans are made of detached chains with turquois flowers and pearls.
Here I added the pink beaded trim and all of the stitching on top.
Well, that's it for me today, gotta be getting to bed, I plan to mow today....yay rah.....
Have a great Monday!

Okay, so it has been quite a while since I've blogged...I've been busy, with nothing really to blog about! Spring cleaning doesn't allow for much to talk about! However, I was playing with my baby cockatiels last night and they decided, (NOT ME!) that it was bath day. So, I went and got their bathtub and they were drawn to it immediately! I haven't laughed that hard in quite some time and the more I laughed, the sillier they acted! Tux decided she wanted to do it on her own this time....she is becoming way more independant than she used to be. However, the boys, Pearl and Bandanna, wanted me to sprinkle them with water. What a mess we made! But, we had a great time doing it, so I guess that is what matters!
I thought I'd share a couple of the pictures of them...they were so cute! This is Tuxie, she was the first one in, and the first one out! She was soaked and dripping everywhere, so the first place she went was my lap. So, I was then wet as well!
Here's Bandanna enjoying the "rain" that was falling on him! He has never liked to be sprinkled before, but yesterday he totally changed his opinion! He was soooooo silly....and WeT! I am calling this, "Did you get my wingpits Mom?".
This is Pearl. Now, this bird has more energy than he knows what to do with most of the time, and yesterday was definately no exception! He was doing all sorts of didoes when I started sprinkling him!
I have had the best experiences with these baby cockatiels! Bandanna is the elder, he's 10 months old now. Tux and Pearl are 8 months. I do miss the attachment of feeding them every 2 hours, but I don't miss the lack of sleep! They have grown up to be so sweet and well behaved and I guess a Mom can't ask for more than that, can she?
Well, I hope you have enjoyed seeing my babies! I love to share them!
Have a super Sunday,
Christy
And the back:
Well, not too shabby from they way I see it!
