Pink Wednesday on Tuesday!

It's a Pink Wednesday post on a Tuesday!! I figure if I jump ahead a day, I won't feel like I'm so far behind!! Yay! Hey, it makes perfect sense to me at this moment. Tomorrow I may feel different. Today....it's all good. Ha!Family and friends have been sending me sweet little notes telling me I haven't updated my blog. I know, I know, I know! Sorry everybody. I've been a wee bit swamped with projects like the one above. I've been arranging and rearranging furniture to accomodate all the furniture from our little hairbrained idea. That's what I'm referring to it as these days. File it under: What the heck were we think'n?!!
I've also been training these three (Gracie, Max and Walker) not to step out the door if the screen is open. Don't they just look thrilled with the whole idea? Ha!

Who says cats can't be trained?!! Pishaw! This training is a result of the neighbors cat getting out and being lost for two and a half weeks. We all thought the coyotes got her. The story ends on a happy note though....Sophie was found in....our garage!! We don't know how long she was there. Our garage door is always open when we're outside. All I know is that I went to take out the trash and there behind the bin was a cat tail. I tentatively whispered, "Sophie" and she ran right to me just a meowing her little head off. It was one of the happiest phone calls to make....letting our neighbors know I found a furry member of their family!! Yay!!

My space at Monticello is taking up a bit of my time too. People seem to like what I'm bringing in so I have to fluff my space pretty regularly. It really should not be as much fun as it is!! ;o)
I've also been thinking toward Halloween and collecting bits and pieces here and there. White, black and pumpkin orange! Hey, I have cats in those colors!! I see you scrolling back up to look. ;o)
Christmas is on the brain too! I've signed on to do the annual Christmas show in December at Monticello so I'll have my main floor booth to decorate as well as a space in the garden room. I love decorating for the holidays!! It should be a blast!! Oh, the ideas!!
Been spending lots of quality time in the studio too. Notice the settee and chairs? Finally, family and friends have a place to sit besides on the floor when they join me. Yay!! (It only took three and a half years!) There has been some good to come out of that little hairbrained idea metioned above. Ha!
And just to show you that I have, indeed, been working on bears. Ta da! They're a little further along than this. I worked last night until I couldn't see straight. I'm trying like the dickens to get three bears listed by the first of next week. Cross your fingers!!

So, there you have it. A long winded Pink Wednesday post on a Tuesday!!

Warmest bear hugs, Aleta

P.S. Happy Birthday, Justin! My son is 27 today!! Of course, I had him when I was, like, ten. :-0 Ha! ;o) Yeah, right!
