Free Cat Toys!

i don't know about you, but my cats LOVE cardboard. They play on or in it, scratch it and chew on it. I found a site that sells some swanky cardboard scratchers, but they've got some DIY templates for cardboard cat toys! These should be fun!

Santa was good to me,
Xmas Eve
and even brought me a gallon of paint for the kitchen. Sherwin Williams Duration Interior, which by the way i'm going to highly recommend. It costs alot, but the coverage is amazing and barely smelled. Anyhoo...the color is called Slick Blue...a close match to a 56 Bel Air....it's more turquoise than this photo shows, and BRIGHT!!!! and i LOVE it!!!
BLUE KITCHEN!!!!!
I think i'm still recovering from it all, what with going back to work and all, so it was nice to have a quiet New Year's Eve....Happy New Year Everyone!
