Musings on a Small Life

It must have been a wild night for Derry, or a wild few seconds anyway, because when I came downstairs early this morning, this is what I saw: Eight of his nip toys scattered, plus a ninth one off to the right, out of view. Derry hardly ever gives them any notice, even when new or "renewed" in a baggie of catnip, so he was full of beans for a short time. :-) I have no further progress to report on the bathroom reno, because we're still waiting for the vanity to come in. Until that happens, the guys can't proceed. In the meantime, I'm making do with the tub and toilet, and I have three other sinks to use in the house (kitchen, basement bathroom and basement laundry tub). I did find a pretty (to me) shower curtain on Amazon, though: I had ordered four shower curtains, returned two and am debating on the third one. The fabric of this one is the heaviest of them all (though still not "heavy"), and the colours are the nicest, not garish like the two I sent ba...

A week and a half ago I ordered a small tie-dyed tote bag from the husband of one of the famous (or is that infamous--lol) bloggers, i.e. the Katnip Lounge human dad. He has an Etsy shop with tie-dyed hippy wear and sells tee-shirts, towels, bandanas, totes, and the like. Mine arrived yesterday! Pretty good transit time from the U.S., I think. And I'd like to point out that he shipped it right away, excellent customer service. Very reasonable shipping fee too. The tote will add a bit of colour and fun to my otherwise conservative (read boring, bland, dull....) clothing and accessories. And it will be perfect for my work lunches or for a few items like treats for the boys. I'd love a big one, too, large shopping bag size (hint hint). So thank you, "Scrotchy." I'll check back to see what else you might be adding to your on-line store!
