After my family and faith, I think it’s pretty easy to tell which things I’m passionate about. Books – I’ve been a voracious reader since I was a little kid. Not do I only love to read, but I love to collect books as well. I’ve been adding to my hoard for almost four decadesContinue reading “Small Life Thrills”

Animal Rescuer (and Avenger)
This was the first thing to come to mind. I waste a lot of time on various social media crying over animal rescues in all the tenses – animals that have been rescued, that are currently being rescued, or that still need rescuing. I always wish that I could be helping out and then heapingContinue reading “Animal Rescuer (and Avenger)”
Crazy Cat Lady Checklist
Certified crazy cat lady here, so my answer’s obvious. But, really, it depends on the personality and temperament of the person. Some would find dogs more ideal (I love dogs too, btw) and others, perhaps a bird or a fish. I’d be more interested though if you’re another cat person. If you’re not sure aboutContinue reading “Crazy Cat Lady Checklist”
Cat Lady Post: Deadly Flowers
My husband and I are celebrating our 20th wedding anniversary (and our 28th year together) today. He presented me this morning with a lovely bouquet of two of my favorite flowers: lilies and daisies. While I love them, I immediately took them out to the porch and did the business of putting them in aContinue reading “Cat Lady Post: Deadly Flowers”
Cat Lady Post: The Catch in Cat Toys
Do you tend to get silly over cats? Do you find yourself spouting gibberish in an insanely squeaky voice to communicate with them? When asked about your boss, does your mind go to your cat? Does a considerable percentage of your income go to cat care? No, there’s nothing wrong with you. Cats rule, soContinue reading “Cat Lady Post: The Catch in Cat Toys”
Book Review: Sprinkles and Sea Serpents
This is a cozy fantasy-mystery I recently read. I don’t usually go for mysteries with a paranormal or supernatural element, but every now and then, I give one of them a whirl. I think the cover drew me in. I got the one on the left. I’m not sure which version is more recent, butContinue reading “Book Review: Sprinkles and Sea Serpents”
Cat Lady Post – Cat Care, Birding, and Amateur Geology
Which topics would you like to be more informed about? I like trivia. I have decades of being a huge Trivial Pursuit and Jeopardy nerd under my belthyttt. My knowledge was vast, but pretty superficial outside my concentration. General information was my territory. Once upon a time, my hippocampus was on top of its game.Continue reading “Cat Lady Post – Cat Care, Birding, and Amateur Geology”
Cat Lady Post: A Season Of Goodbyes
The past few weeks have been rather painful. They consisted of goodbyes in one form or another. Let me start with Rocky. Rocky was the runt of her litter, a minuscule calico who was so scrappy that I firmly believed she would beat the odds. She survived for almost two months before she took ill.Continue reading “Cat Lady Post: A Season Of Goodbyes”
Cat Lady Post: Mid-level Cat Lady with Some Seniority
Dogs or cats? It’s not that I don’t like dogs. In fact, I love them. I wouldn’t mind taking care of one or two. I want all the dogs in the world to be happy, taken good care of, and know that they’re safe and loved. Cats are different though. I’ve always wanted a catContinue reading “Cat Lady Post: Mid-level Cat Lady with Some Seniority”
Cat Lady Post: GozeFurGang on Instagram
I’ve gone and done it! Relax, it’s not anything heinous, unless you’re a deeply troubled and antagonistic being and might think so. I created an Instagram account for my kitty cats! As you may or may not know, I’m already deeply entrenched in the bookstagram community. I’ve been wanting to share silly things my catsContinue reading “Cat Lady Post: GozeFurGang on Instagram”
