I first had the title of this post as "my little atticus" but then I remembered that Atticus is actually NOT my cat! :-) Although.... Miranda has acknowledged that when she moves, Atticus should stay with us because he loves me so much! Eeeeeeek! That makes me so happy!
So my day started off really bad! When I went downstairs this morning, I could instantly smell that certain kitty stink we all dread! Geri, our 14 year old cat, who had been inside all night had let loose in several spots in the house, with "loose" being the operative word here. EGADS! I thought I had encountered a crime scene! I just about barfed! As I'm getting older, I just have less and less of a tolerance for that kind of thing! Too many pit toilets I guess. So needless to say, I spent my morning shampooing the carpet!
Not sure why I thought to share that with you, other than it fits the "cat" theme of today's post. Sorry! :-)
Okay, so moving right along (yes please do!), I have two pictures of Atticus to show you! I know it's been awhile and he's just getting cuter and cuter!
Miranda and I went to Goodwill Friday evening and I went nuts with the fabric. I piled it up on the piano while I was running around and later when I went back to get it, I saw this...
So cute! That blue and pink fabric you see there will soom be curtains for Miranda's bathroom! I loved the fabric and Miranda "approved" it. Now to just find the time to throw that together, ideally before my family arrives!!!
Later, after the fabric found it's way upstairs, Atticus stashed himself in the bag, clearly trying to initiate a game of "guess what I am!" I guessed "fabric" and I won! :-)
So today the official count down starts! One week from today, my sister Simone, will be in the house! In MY house! :-) Then Wednesday of that week, Renee, my other sister, will also be in my house! Eeeeek! I'm so excited!!!
Okay, see ya later!
Ah, Atti's such a Cutie! Good luck with getting the house ready for Sisters & Co. :)

Atticus is such a cutie! I don't know how many times I have said that in the past when you post pix of Atticus but he totally is and he is such a character. Yay, for sister's coming over!!! Have a great time w/your sisters.

What is it about those crunchy bags that cats love so much? LOL My cat seeks them out all the time. Maybe it's the noise? Cute pics! :)

PS...I forgot to tell you...I have a cat for giving...she is evil as all get out and only wants to be petted on her terms and at her will...I am deathly afraid of her and will gladly ship her to you (at my expense, that is!) for a yard of grosgrain ribbon or a few vintage buttons!
