Critters, Flowers & Free Earrings!

The Squirrels are driving me "nuts"! They have managed to destroy every feeder in my yard! I did a head count yesterday and there were 17 of the pesky little fatties munching away. We really enjoy the birds, but I don't know what to do about all the squirrels! Any suggestions??? Katie??? Jen???? Any other of my little country girls??? I caught this little fellow this morning making a fast getaway down the handrail of my porch! And Melanie, I already thought about trapping them and floating them down the river on the wine bags, but I live in the forest and they'll just keep coming back :)Although, I don't mind the white ones, since they are a "novelty" around here. We have 1 that lives in our yard, but he don't really seem that interested in the feeders. He stays on the ground to munch, along with the doves & the chipmunks :)And the Jonquils are just everywhere around here! They are so beautiful!! So with that being said, I'm wrapping it up for a couple of hours and heading outside. But before I go, I have to share this week's give away:These gorgeous "Earth & Sky" earrings! All you have to do is comment on this blog post for a chance to win them! The drawing will be Monday! Good Luck & have a great day!

♥ & peace always ~ Kathy

Friends & Critters

I just had to share this with all of you today. My Mom found this when she was going through some boxes of pictures and things she had saved from when I was a kid. She e-mailed me this today. I must have written it in 2nd or 3rd grade. It just goes to show how some things never change. I still love to write stories, tell stories, draw & color. But most of all, my love for critters started when I was very young. I hope you enjoy my little story, obviously my teacher did {hee hee}. I was such a good student!

Well, I bit the bullet and cut almost all of my hair off! eeekk ~ I love it though. Although, I have a slight resemblance to "Harry Potter" when I have no makeup on and just my reading glasses. Still in all, I can't believe I was never brave enough to cut my hair until now. Actually, I didn't cut it, but got it cut at a salon. I'll have to share a picture later.

I managed to get several new things made and listed in the shop today, so please do check them out when you get a minute. My most favorite thing is this awesome little wrap bracelet. I just love how it turned out and it's just so perfect for every day ~ Bohemian & funky, like me:
Plus, it's named so appropriately "That's A Wrap".

I talked with my bestest friend Sharon at length today. We just yaked & yaked for over an hour. She convinced me that I need to come spend a weekend with her soon. She lives right on the beach in Florida and we just walk & talk for hours collecting shells and listening to the peeping of the gulls & splashing of the seas. I promised her I would come soon and I will. So Sharon, when you read this post, you'll know I meant it :0)

When you sit back & think about it, Friends & Family are all you really have that mean anything. Everything else is just lagniappe {except dogs, of course}. Anyway, I need to go get dinner ready & fill a few orders. I hope everybody is having a wonderful Tuesday!

xx00 ♥ & peace ~ Kathy
