Cat and the Fiddle Win!

Hi All, Hope your New Year's has started out really well.  I have no complaints (so far).  I'm even able to remember to write 2011 instead of 2010 on my checks.  We are in the process of tearing up our kitchen floor to put down laminate.  Why are we doing this? Well, I am married to Tool Man Tim and we NEVER have anyone do something that Tool Man can do.

And yes, I helped! I'm the clean up crew and floor nail puller.  Hopefully we will get the flooring this weekend. After we get the floor in hubby would like to tackle the cabinets. We are thinking of painting them white or cream to brighten up the kitchen since its so small and doesn't get a lot of natural light.

I also won another giveaway! This time the winnings will go to my new grandson who is set to arrive anytime after January 11th.  Isn't this Cat-and-the-Fiddle blanket just adorable and it is hand made by an absolutely wonderful gal named Carol.

Carol makes wonderful items.  I love the little kitty scarf that she has listed in her Etsy Store.  Please take some time and stop by and browse through her store, CC's Kittenknits

I'm still busy with work, the house, and the new arrival and haven't had much time to craft, but I did go through my pattern stash and have picked out some projects to work on for spring and Valentine's Day!

We had a lovely snow last week, but now its all gone and it's just cold outside and kinda brown.  The kitties are staying warm, though.  Here is a picture of Oscar and Ms. B. snuggling. Aren't they cute!

I'll sign off for now and try by best to find some time to visit all of my blog friends and see what you have all been crafting!

Stay warm and hug a kitty today!
