The cats at the door

It's 2009 - So Fine...

Amid huge displays of fireworks, light shows, massive numbers of revelers and half-frozen celebratory crowds, the New Year was greeted by the world, - and the old year was kicked to the curb like a bad bf on Jerry Springer.

Not that we participated in the festivities. I did look at MSN's slide show this morning, but that's about it. Today is sunny and crisp, - 46 degrees. Just perfect.

Mr Fox says he's turning over a new leaf and will now be waking up early instead of staying up late. I guess that means I'll be doing the same. It ought to be an interesting change of pace.

Best wishes for a happy, healthy, productive and peaceful 2009.

Monday Tuesday Wednesday

Here it is, the Last Friday of December. I hope everyone has made their tax-deductible contributions to charity by now- If not, you have just Monday Tuesday & Wednesday to do it.

Local food banks, animal shelters, homeless centers, your religious group, your kids' school- all these are good places to share a bit of what you have and receive a tax deduction on your 2008 taxes.

You can also make political contributions, donations to Diabetes or MS research, Breast Cancer research, the ASPCA, - there's many, many more--- choose a few and share the love. There's still time, so get busy!!

Macro Monday

Just listed - on Etsy!

I added 3 things to my Etsy shop last night. The process, though tedious - 5 pages! - went fairly smoothly. Since views have bee re-calculated, or using a different set of criteria, views have fallen significantly.

The antler pendant got 4 views; the red copper pearls has 3, and the lampwork earrings garnered 2.

That's sad. Just sad.

Lookie Lookie!!

I bought some of those cute little flower beads- in my continuing quest to create items just like Etsy likes...

The beads were fun to use though, and I think they came out well.

Look on Shophandmade (link at right) for these two...
