One of the blogs I read, Domesticali, ran a "Seven Days of Specialness" swap and I joined. I had some troubles making items for my partner, as my concentration seems to be shot lately due to the recent deaths of loved ones. I just can't settle down and DO something, I feel all drifty and floaty and flitty. I haven't been able to manage even a blog post - twitter seems to be about all I can handle these days, 140 characters.
But oh, the specialness I received!! I'm so spoiled. My partner Sonya really hit the bullseye with her items, because not only were they items I liked, they are specifically styled the way I like - I just adore it all.
Today was Day 1, and my special item for day 1 is: A lovely warm gorgeous cowl! (Photographed in the box it came in, otherwise the cat was *ALL OVER IT* - wanting to lick it and sit on it!)
I *LOVE* it, as it is a big *tall* cowl, it's a big circle so it doesn't choke me, and I can shape it and use it in so many ways. I can keep the furnace off all evening if I wear this at home! :)
I am going to have a very special week with the things my partner sent, oh such lovelies!
And of course i have more cat photos to share. Of course.
Here's Phoebe in her floofy poofball pose - she tucks all four paws/legs under her, and her tail, and somehow poofs herself out extra poofy (can you tell I like the words poofy and floofy?!).
Here are a couple calendar cat poses - she's entranced by the gang of bushtits in the tree, out the living room window, at twilight.
And here's the little charmer in the sun again, right before she decided to squirm and wiggle her way into my fabric stash pile next to her, and take a nap in the middle of it!
