My Thirteen favorite things

1. Socks…he is one of my favorite fur-babies. He chose me and my family as his own.

2. Abby…She is our little feral fur-girl-baby. We initially started looking for a friend for Socks, but when I heard and then saw Abby, I was hooked. The fact that Socks and Abby get along so well, well, that is an added benefit Oh, and slowly Abby is starting to trust me (not that you can tell by my arm, which she used as a launching pad) she is laying on the floor at my feet, and she will stay here as long as I dont move.

3. Blackie…He is my favorite fur-foster-baby. He loves to cuddle and just loves to be kneeded.

4. My computer. When my computer needed to be killed last week, I felt so lost. But fortunately, I am getting it back to where it used to be. It was a great way to get me to clean the garbage off of the computer.

5. My camera…I take it with me most places, and usually take more pictures than I need to

6. My van…A little over 2 years ago, I bought my eggplant colored van (and no it isnt purple). I am so very grateful for it. I cant fathome how I ever made it without my van.

7. Yarn, Yarn and more Yarn. I am thankful to be able to create such wonderful things for those that I care about. My family doesnt always have alot of money, but I know that I can always make something pretty for friends and family who are having birthdays, babies or just need something nice for comfort.

8. I am thankful for blankets. I am a person who always has a blanket close at hand. I sleep under at least 4 blankets even during the summer (ok, the AC is on)

9. I am thankful for my patio furnature. It sounds silly, but I love to be outside and having my patio furnature allows me to sit under an umbrella and enjoy the outdoors without a whole lot of sun beating down on me. Now if I could just get rid of the teens in the complex….

10. Candles. I love candles. I am very particular about the scents that I buy. I am not one for sweet smelling candles, I like flowers. Lilac, freshia, hydrangia, berry are some of my favorites…but I dont care for rose.

11. Magnets. It may sound really strange, but one of the things that I tried while trying to get rid of the headaches was magnetic jewelry. I ordered a couple pieces from a company that I found online, then I discovered that I could make my own!

12. Garden…My little pet project is my garden and pond. I have a bulb garden which has so many wonderful bulbs in it, and I have beautiful flowers from about May through July. It is wonderful to have the windows open in the spring

13. Books! I am a avid reader. I am always reading something. Currently, I am reading “A Tale of Two Cities”. My daughter and I were planning to read the book together, but she found it a little to difficult. I however, found the book to be interesting, but find my reading time very limited…such is live.
