Playing dice for Q-Tips...

What a busy few days it's been! I guess that's why it's been so long since my last post -- 1 week tomorrow! So, I left you with Norman and his penis issues. Well thankfully, things are finally starting to look up (knock wood), The color has practically returned to normal and it's retracted by 80%. We've been keeping him very lubricated with Vetericyn and KY Jelly.

He's been living alone for a week now, which is heartbreaking. After he started to heal, he starting crying for his family. He's 4 months old, but such a baby in some ways still. Once he's 100% recovered from this, we're going to introduce him to Ginny. They will (hopefully) make the cutest couple!

Speaking of gliders, I'm going to give you a rundown on all the happenings with all the mamas and their babies. Ellie is FINALLY starting to show, quite a bit, actually. Charli is fairly huge and was evening singing a couple days ago. Chloe's babies are huge and fluffy and so sweet. Jim has a home lined up, but Dale is still available. Kira's little girl is so cute, but she's a little punk. I'll probably create an ad for her later this week.

In cat news, Toby is still missing. Have I even mentioned that he's been gone for 2 weeks now? Bart disappeared for over 3 weeks, so I'm still holding out hope for Toby. Mason and Jasper have been MIA for the past 2 days now, but Mason showed up today, thankfully. Cersei and Bart hang around the house almost all the time, which is great. I just wish the boys would stop running off. As much as I don't want to admit it, I think Bart is chasing them off and fighting them.

So, aside from animals, not too much as been going on. I've been working and sewing, that's pretty much it. I worked Saturday for just over 3 hours -- not that I'm complaining. Sunday I sewed a cage set, vacuumed the house, vacuumed the glider room, cleaned drop trays, did laundry, and cleaned the rat cage. Busy day! Monday I had to drive my aunt to Cape so that she could get an injection in her back... Not fun! We left the house just before noon and didn't get home until almost 8.

I was so aggravated at myself. I completely forgot to get the Redbox game and movie that we rented, so as soon as we got home, LaVaughn and I had to turn around and go straight into Piedmont before 9 that night. This was after we shut the chickens and ducks up, fed the cats, dogs, and put the groceries away. I also had to feed the gliders when we got back from Piedmont just before 9. I was so exhausted! I also had to work the following day, which completely sucked. It didn't help that we were super busy -- you have no idea how sore I am from running all over the place at work.

Today I've been semi chill. I cut out a cage set last night. Oh yeah, let me break here for a second and tell you about the fleece that arrived in the mail. I ordered fleece from Hancock last week and it arrived Monday, but they were out of 3 different things that we ordered, so I had to order fillers from Fabric.com which won't  be here until Saturday. Sigh...

Anyways, I had one that was paired up, so I cut that out last night and sewed it up today. A lady that ordered a cage set from me last week and paid via money transfer (at Walmart) commented on the set I posted a little while ago and then she sent me a message. She told me that she loved it and wanted it, but she didn't get paid for a few days. I could tell how much she wanted it, so I told her I had no problems holding it for her.

I hate that the rest of our fleece won't be here for a few more days. I badly want to cut more and sew.

Hmm... what else. Monday while we were waiting on my aunt, we decided to do some much needed grocery shopping. We loaded up on Morning Start and Cinnabon coffee creamer while we were there. After that we headed to Hastings where we walked around and ended up scoring Clay and Gemma POP! Funko's to complete our Sons Of Anarchy collection. Yay!

They had a "Buy One Get One For 50% Off" sale on their POP! Funko toys, but we thought they were all 50% off, so we had like 9 of them -- 7 being Walking Dead ones. It didn't take us long to put them all back once we figured out what the sale really was, haha. Oh well, maybe next time. :)

Well I guess that's all for now. There will be lots of cute joey pictures at the bottom that I took today. Hope you enjoy...

Love & Peace

Until my fingers bleed...

I have cut out SO many cage sets today. I think I've done 6 now? I don't know, but that's close to 50 individual pieces, not to mention dozens upon dozens of tabs! Each item has at least 2-4 tabs, so you can imagine. O.o Now if only I had time to sew them all today. I'm aiming for Sunday, because we're planing on going out tomorrow. IF that happens, you never know about us.

Laci received her sets and pouches today. She loved them, thankfully. She's already talking to me about ordering 3 more 8 piece cage sets. I really hope she does, we could use the extra money right about now.

Have I mentioned that we're doing Christmas now? My aunt didn't really want to do anything this year because of their situation with my uncle's work. He's apparently put thousands into his truck already this year -- no fun. Well she talked to us about it Wednesday and said that she would like to if we were able. We, of course, agreed to it. After all, we did get all those awesome Christmas decorations the day after Christmas last year. We haven't done a themed tree since I was probably 10. It's so exciting to be doing one on our own this year. Well, not really on our own, but close.

I have to admit, I've been bummed for weeks now that we weren't planing on doing anything. I honestly don't care about gifts, it's the tree, decorations, and the festive feeling that you get when you're looking at all of your decorations, lights and so on that I love! But my aunt is the type of person that will not have a tree if there are no gifts under it. She won't even put up decorations, she things it's too sad and depressing. I mean, I guess I can relate, so there's never an argument about it.

So as of now, Christmas is back on!

I'm so unbelievably full right now. I made Indian fry bread for dinner, sigh... Don't get me wrong, it was delicious, it's just such a filling meal. The bread like triples in size in your stomach. I walked around outside with the cats and my aunt's dog for a while earlier and took some very odd pictures. Mainly of the cats, but some surrounding areas as well. Those will be featured below.

Love & Peace
