I’m in dire danger

April 28, 2007 by ausxser

Dire danger of becoming a ‘cat blog’ and never stitching again!

In the past two days I have learnt some very amazing things about myself…

  1. I like to sleep – preferably all night without too many interruptions….see point 2.
  2. I used to like having my ear lobes nibbled…however at 2.00 am by  Banjo – I have now changed my mind.
  3. Kittens, like babies of the human kind, are very good time-wasters and the ultimate reason to put some awful domestic task off till later!
  4. My camera has not had such a work out since LHM was a baby – the pictures of LHM stopped at around 5 years of age, I’ve taken more photos of Banjo in two days than I have of LHM in two years!

Banjo – reclining on the sofa!

Banjo’s weepy eye is all better now so expect lots of pretty pictures of his beautiful face this week.

    How could you not take a picture of such a cutie ?!
    But I understand about the pictures and kids…I took roll after roll of my first three kids and poor Ellie our baby doesn’t have near as many pics taken of her :(

    Who could resist taking lots of pics of this beautiful kittie. Looking forward to face shots.

    New kitties are like new babies – can’t get enough of them! LOL

    Congratulations on your newest family member. Cats are wonderful and I can understand you spending lots of time watching and playing with him. He is such a sweetie. I was a naughty girl today and bought my 50th birthday present. I am not 50 until September but I am picking up my new little man (A
    Somali) on Wednesday. His name is Harry. So we will be new parents together.

    Congrats on your newest addition! He sure looks like a cutie and I don’t think I could resist taking lots and lots of pictures either.

    Hi, Tannia, Vonna steered me to your blog, and I’m so thrilled to meet you. I’m a needlepointer and XSer, too!! I’m really a needlepointer at heart with a love of XS as well, but I haven’t seen any other stitching blogs that show work of both. So, you are a breath of fresh air!! Love your “Desert” piece…your stitching is impeccable.

    I could’ve sworn I’d commented before, but obviously not … I just wanted to say a huge congrats on getting a kitty – Banjo looks positively gorgeous!

    He’s delightful! I wish I could have a cat here, but we’re not allowed animals in this building…=(

    You’ll have to stitch more though, else how can I keep you on my Blogroll of ‘Needlecraft blogs’??=) I haven’t done much with the needle over recent months either, (although I may be comparing it to the amount of stitching I was able to churn out when home seriously ill for 4+ years!!!), and am wondering how much to expect of myself there.

    Two weddings coming up though and a baby due June for whom I have planned to make a crib quilt. So, best get on with it.

    I’ll be investigating other blog services, but I think it would be a shame to have to move. Maybe I should try and contact Blogger about the carriage returns issue first. Moving would be a pain.

    I am laughing at your cat’s story. Thank you for stopping by my blog and left me comment. I saw your amazing biscornu piece at Carol’s blog. You have amazing work here as well.

    I know how you feel about taking photo after photo of Banjo. New kitties are priceless and they grow up so fast. Thank God for digital cameras – snapping away endlessly and then being able to delete the ones that didn’t turn out as you wanted!
