I'm afraid it won't be for many years for me. Poor Sadie. I can't even imagine trying to harness most of my cats. Maybe Pickles would tolerate it, maybe. I miss the NewFo challenge. I actually started a lot of projects that I probably wouldn't have gotten to for years. Most of them still aren't finished, but that's this year's hope. Yes, I say that every year, but a girl has to have hope, right?

But Sadie does look quite fashionable! Fermentation? Are you making your own hooch now - thought that was just bread. I'm not fond of those sorts of things, but you give it a go. Oh, I remember those two projects - good for you in getting them out again. A little here and there will get 'er' done.

Most of us have quite a few, waiting their turn to be finished.

I love that little birdhouse quilt. It should go pretty quickly since you've got two rows done. Tell Mike that I am celebrating his special day with you two, cause it's my special day too!! (Only for a different reason). I will raise a glass of wine on Friday night and be thinking about you two celebrating too. It's fun to be retired, but you will be busier than ever. He will wonder how he ever had time to work!Darhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05960683751935834250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5045426307379086704.post-58056805749428905142017-04-25T14:18:22.900-07:002017-04-25T14:18:22.900-07:00The cruelty that emanates... well, let's just ...The cruelty that emanates... well, let's just say, she acts really really well. Did she have a small part in Moonlight this past year? I'm certain I saw her onstage during that fiasco !~!<br /><br />Good luck with the old UFO's. I'm trying to find motivation.

Good thing we don't get to hear what they are thinking, eh? That's what I love about cats -- they have so much personality! I hope the harness works out. Boy, wish I would've known about your blog when that challenge came around; I think I could've taken the prize on that one! Haha. I have a pile of UFOs that I keep ignoring. It's just too much fun to start something new. The fermentation book looks interesting. I have a recipe from a blog and a book with some fermentation recipes too; I'll email you that info when I'm back home (I have to look at the book, can't recall the title). Glad you get to go to Mike's party. How fun for you both! piecefulwendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02256164519304112032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5045426307379086704.post-75104240602224970992017-04-25T06:05:23.758-07:002017-04-25T06:05:23.758-07:00She looks beautiful in her new harness.

I'm constantly cleaning Maya's thunder coat's velcro so if you come up with a gadget or trick on how to clean it, please let me know, washing seems to make it worse :)<br />I miss the challenges they kept me blogging, otherwise I never seem to find the time, LOL.

We did forgive you for the NewFO and enjoyed seeing lots of inspiration from those who participated. Of course, I tackled easy projects that I could finish in a month or two, so it really is about the picking :). I remember the bird houses and wish you well on the finish.Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14418828972427644899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5045426307379086704.post-89076280900501470262017-04-24T21:38:34.661-07:002017-04-24T21:38:34.661-07:00Sadie, you look great in that new harness!

I wish it was me. I know you both will truly enjoy his retirement so you can travel a bit. Sadie does not seem fond of her harness , I do hope she learns to love it so she can have fun on your travels as well. Love these last two scarp quilts. I think my scraps multiply at night while I am not looking. I did just finish a sting quilt make from the scrab ban. It feels really good to use some of those scraps. I am anxious to learn about the fermenting so please share. I don't think I know what this is so Off now to google fermented veggies.

Her initial reaction is similar to my sister's cat who absolutely refused to stand up and walk when in her harness and leash while we kitty-sat for her. I hope Sadie understands this will give her much more outside time.Quilting Babciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16225825007525655805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5045426307379086704.post-51998646321428947262017-04-24T14:42:10.499-07:002017-04-24T14:42:10.499-07:00Yay retirement!
