Yard Work

is mostly what I've been doing the last several days. I got some tree trimming done and some plants that had been in pots waaayyyy too long in the ground.

I'm also fostering 6 kittens right now. I took in the Momma from my sewing buddy. As usual, momma cat just showed up at her house (perhaps dumped) and she produced 6 kittens. She and her husband couldn't keep them. We had to trap them and fortunately were successful after a couple of weeks. I've had Momma spayed now and she is actually taming up nicely. I'll keep her, and after I tame up the kittens more, I'll take them to the animal hospital where I volunteer and hopefully they will all be adopted. They have been taking quite a bit of my time. Nothing cuter than a litter of kittens--so entertaining!

I'm revamping the sewing room. This has been planned for some time, but things are finally falling into place. I have given away the double bed (this past weekend) so I'll have more room. The girls will have either a sofa bed, day bed or air mattress to sleep on when they visit now. I plan to take up the carpet up (then paint) and put down the wood laminate flooring. This will not be a quick project as I still have some sewing I want to do before I clear the room. At least the process has begun and I hope to get it all done within 5-6 months. I'll be doing most of it myself, and you know how life always manages to 'get in the way.'

I'm going to try to squeeze in some sewing this afternoon.
