Hey @Snowie today was ok. But I’ve crashed pretty hard since being home.
we left pretty early for the book fair. Cause we had been before we knew where to go to first. I got so many Alice books and D got a couple of books. I should have taken my loop earphones cause the noise in there was getting to me. In particular a little girl with those plastic kid high heel shoes, stomping around making so much noise. And then a baby that just cried and cried.
my loot!
then we went to the beach. We recently found a really cool beach that has a section where it’s all rocks and shells and driftwood. Everything I use to make my art pieces! So we went and got a whole heap of rocks. Played in the water. Had some lunch by the water.
I had to do my accountability check in, thing was my SW wasn’t in today, so one of the other SW’s did it. And it was a male. Which was really challenging. But I don’t wanna fail or disappoint my SW, so I did it real quick and hit send.
came home to some kitty time. They are so cute!

Their little beans are so cute @Jynx and they are starting to get tiny little pin sharp teeth… can just start to feel them.
we didn’t get home until 3pm. The beach was most definitely nice and calm and quiet. But I forgot to take sunscreen and I tend to just burn, so was very conscious of that. On the couch now having some chill time.
And ahuh! More Alice books! There’s a couple of folks I follow on Instagram that have huge collections.
how was your week?

They are giving me nibbles @Jynx starting to play heaps but still walking around as if they are drunk. D and I were down playing with them last night and D had put a blanket over a table and made a cave… they were all in there wandering around and then a cockroach appeared, ran straight at my D…. D screamed, went to get up, hit her head on the table, tried to back up, kittens went scampering and I lay on the floor laughing. Evermore and Folklore like to stay close by. Climb all over me and find a spot to sit and play.
my legs are a little bit burnt unfortunately. They are red. Wish I tanned like my D. She is so brown. No idea where she got it from cause her father is whiter than me.
Just found a lady with 750 books!
oh no spring cleaning! I had a bit of a clean downstairs. Cleaned stuff up, put things away and set up an extra table so I could smash out some art pieces for market.

Hey @Bow
How's the cricut pixie dust stuff going? I'm so interested becase I don't know what it is.
Those kittens are gorgeous! I'm starting to like cats more and more... I was always against cats, but I'm beginning to get more attached!
Is that bad?
How many will you adopt later lol???

So I’ve made @tyme I haven’t finished them yet. But it’s a wooden card holder, you’ll see the slot at the top. I did the writing and stuff with my cricut. And I’m waiting for some beads to arrive which I’ll sit on the top (a red fluffy bead and then a black mickeys head bead on top of the red and then two little yellow beads kinda hanging on the front) it will look like Mickey is sitting on the top. And then I’ll do up a little card saying something about pixie dust and print your favourite photo from the trip and display on it. That’s probably really confusing and I will post a pic once I’ve finished them. But pixie dusting is just basically random acts of kindness. A lot of people do it on Disney cruises and also around the parks at hotels and stuff.
I’ve always been a cat person. Have never really appreciated the slobber that comes with dogs. I hate dogs licking. And their barks argh!!
only negative with cats… the litter box. My cats are always indoor cats, so gotta have a crap box. Cats can be moody, like I’m just gonna ignore you today. But then they can just know. They know when you’re having a bad. I love ginger cats. Did you know it’s rare to get a female ginger cat? 🐈
I won’t be adopting any of these! I’ve accepted that just one cat is a good number for me. Mum knows it and reminds me when I say how cute they are. Maybe one day I’ll get a Maine c0on though.
