Puzzle Pictures

This one hangs in our bedroom. The scene is by Sandra Kuck. I have her 8 plate set of Hearts and Flowers. They are for sale as well. Trying to get money to pay for my numerous medical bills from my two hospital stays in later part of 2008.

Puzzles that have been put together and sealed make great wall hangings. I have made several, some tiny other huge.
The bear one I made for my oldest daughter that collects bears.



These kitty ones I have for sale.

I am currently working on a large one, but not doing well. It is mostly shade of white and shades of blue. I think it will take me forever to get it put together. It is of a couple of children angels and will be lovely when finished and framed. My dear husband makes the wood frames around each finished puzzle. I will put photos here of the few I have done.

Testing Territory

Yesterday, I think our two cats were testing territory. They both came to us as older feral kittens over three years ago. Both have very different personalities. One is black and the other is calico. We were warned that calico cats are very independent and like to be the only cat around. She escorts any other cat from the property no matter how big in comparison to her size. I am always taking photos of them. So, when I couldn't find them in their usual spots I went looking for them.
Black Beauty had taken Shadows spot on the stereo cabinet and Shadow was on top of our kitchen cabinets. It is a big leap to both spots and it always amazes my husband when he sees them jump to either spot.
Shadow will take the next leap and go on top of our china closets which is even higher. Thankfully, the cabinets are so heavy she can't tip them over. See her snoozing on top of the cabinet! Actually, she is watching me through tiny slitted eyes.

They both keep their feral ways except they want and expect their food and water. Except on cold days they are out more than in. Neither one likes to be picked up. Shadow tolerates me for about thirty seconds, but not Black Beauty. We have become their staff letting them in and out!

Late & Early Gift

Late & Early Gift


My dear hubby sells big truck parts at a company that sells and services heavy equipment. Periodically, he has to take classes and exams. Last year he took three exams and passed all of them, so he got the choice of products in a catalog from the company that gives the exams. He was unselfish and chose something for me. I was in the hospital for the second time in three and a half months with major surgery again in November. He told me while I was in the hospital that he had got me a Christmas gift. A watch as mine died over a year ago and we could not get the back open to replace the battery, not even the jewelry department could open it. So, I just didn't wear a watch. It didn't bother me. He was so disappointed when it didn't come in time for Christmas. We didn't do Christmas in our house as I wasn't recovering as good as I should have. Thank goodness it is just the two of us.
Well, low and behold yesterday the watch arrived at his store. He was so delighted that he called me right away. I was pleased to here him so happy about something. It is now a late Christmas and Early Birthday gift.
His company has been downsizing again, so we have decided to just live one day at a time, just in case he is next to be let go. When that day comes. We will put our house up for sale and move back to Maine where most of our family lives.
Here are a few photos of the watch for everyone to see. It is huge on my wrist since loosing so much weight, but hey it works and given to me by my dear hubby.
