Today is Valentine's Day, as well as my and my husband's second wedding anniversary.
Hopefully I'll have some good posts for you later on in the day. There should be some fun to share.
I still have have to write up and share a post about my seaweed addiction (with photos of my seaweed haul). Hopefully might hit up the Asian supermarkets again today. (My husband finally got paid.)
Gonna have a breakfast feast, including seaweed and matcha salt scrambled eggs and bacon with jasmine rice and maybe hashbrowns. :D
I also have cute cat pictures to share.
Anyways. Need to go. Gonna try to make a origami magic rose cube for my husband as a present before he gets home. He's already on his way, so I need to get crackin'! (Not that he'll know what I'm making when he gets home, lol.)
So good to see this happy post from you. Have a great day!
It's nice to have happy posts to write! I have a couple more I need to get posted up.
I hope you've been doing well.
Much love and miss you! ♡
I'm making you an orange felt cat. I think it is a bit hideous actually but I am going to make a black one too, and no matter how bad they are I'm sending them and you two are going to love them anyway.
Of course we will. ♡♡♡♡♡
My husband made me a felt plush of Tuxie for Christmas several years ago. He was gonna Make Cosmo and Nova as well, but never got around to making them. Years later, location and cat family has changed. Tuxie is no longer with us, we have Apollo again (as an adult, no longer a kitten, though we wish we'd just kept him and not entrusted him to the genetic cesspool), and Comet, our newcomer. (Who really isn't "new" anymore, but is still our newest.)
So we welcome two new additions to the felt cat family. I bet the Tuxie plushie is lonely.
Which black cat are you crafting? The big black majestic beast, or the short-haired kitbull that moos? (Kitbull = Kitten + Pitbull. It's a nickname we have for Comet because he's shaped like a pitbull in the chest and front legs, and he acts so much like a dog we often tell him "good puppy" when he's being good or obedient.)
Hey, would you maybe be interested in collaborating with me to illustrate a children's story I wrote a few years back? I don't think cutesy by itself can do it justice. I think a hybrid of our very different styles could make something very beautiful.
I'd really like to try to get it illustrated by June 4th. I don't necessarily know where we'd go with it from there, but I'd like to at least have it illustrated by June 4th.
Yes I will give it a shot!
I haven't gotten far with my creation so any suggestions or added features are welcome.
I was looking at big cat, I didn't realise you had more than 2, you really are a cat man. I should do a family.
...maybe you should send a portrait 😂 😜;)

We have four, haha. Had five, but losing Tuxie made it four. Four just doesn't feel right after having five.
If we manage to get proper custody of the house, we're trying to decide if we're gonna breed Comet, adopt some black kittens, look for a flame point kitten (like Cosmo, so he can have a proper apprentice to train in his healing arts) to adopt, or register with the local no kills to be a kitten foster home. Basically, anytime they get kittens that need special care (like bottle feeding/incubation/other things/etc) they call us kinda thing.
Cosmo loves kittens, and raising kittens makes him young. We joke that if we make sure Cosmo always has kittens to raise, he'll be immortal. Cosmo is the kind of creature that loves pretty much all other creatures (except wild mice in the house) and cares for them.
Cosmo is fifteen and a half and survived total renal failure in June 2016. Tuxie was his older brother. (Actual brother.) Cosmo is "The Healer" and "Kidney Cat" and "Ol' Blue Eyes".
The story I wrote and need help illustrating is about Cosmo.
Nova is our giant, Comet the newcomer, both of which together are our "Black Cat Brigade" or "Black Cat Brothers" as we call them.
Apollo is the "Ginger Menace" and "The Monster Under the Door". Don't worry, we usually call him 'Pollo Puff, or just "Puff". He likes that.
I'm hoping to afford some fabric to make plushies with my sewing machine. If I get decent, I hope to sell them under the branding of "'Pollo Puffs". :3
I'll be making an introduction post for my boys again. It's been a long time. There'll be plenty of pictures. Will get it up this weekend.
I think I merged Cosmo and apolo as one reddish cat. Then I forgot about the new little black one. I'm onto it. Family of cats.
The special care business and the idea of a giant male cat being nurturing is so unknown to me.
I think I have told you of my pet misadventures.
I could do a truxie angel cat too if you think it's a good idea.
Congratulations @novaatebatman! You have received a personal award!
