What I wonderful holiday week! Hope you all got some BBQ, beer,
sunshine, and celebrating done!
Collections of thunderstorms and exams kept my schedule pretty 
during the last few days. Happy to report I got a little yoga time!
But down to business... Another lifetime ago this sweatshirt once
belonged to a husband of mine. Now that I am single, fabulous,
and broke (they all correlate :) ) this is being rehabilitated from
a Men's XL lounging sweatshirt to a tailored, striped Cate affair.
We'll see how this turns out... there is a lot to cut down.
Seems there is a smaller individual in this house that
doesn't really manage thunderstorms well. Memo
got his kitten nerves all set on edge more than once
during the storm and decided to take it out on an
unsuspecting jade plant. Thankfully I was able to get
a couple of the ravaged stems back into some dirt in
a clever mini shell planter.
Cat + Lightning = death to plants = succulent + shell =
NEW PLANTER!
I had to fill the back of the shell with loose dirt, so I decided to use cactus potting soil. Then I added just enough filler dirt for the stems of the rescued succulents into the wedge. It took a little trial and error to figure out the best way to situate the new little environment.Once I was able to anchor one of the spines on the shell into a wooden pencil holder (which, yes I made) I was able to happily put the new planter with his new friends. I added a couple crystal gems for good measure.
Working away on many, many projects. Adopted a table, started creating a miniature gemstone collection, and made a whole new collection of iced teas. Ri (Romantic Interest) is starting in a adult competitive baseball league which means I will have quite a bit bleacher time coming up. Research, reading, and working away on projects while I can...
Love from Me and Memo
XOXO
