He's Gone....

My Pookie is gone...

My heart breaks today as I fear I am mourning the loss of my beloved "old man." I have had him since he was a baby. He turned 17 this past April. He has been such a good cat all his life. Well, no, that's a lie, he was the meanest kitten ever known to man, but he grew into a very loving older cat! He has been with me through several moves and has always made himself at home... and stayed there.

This morning I got up and he was not in his usual spot on the wicker couch on the back deck. I didn't think much of it because Mouser was not there either. I took Katie to school, came home and Mouser was wandering around, but no Pookie. Later in the morning, I went out again, no Pookie. We have known for a few weeks that his time was coming, but he was still able to get around and eat and drink. Him being "gone" this morning was quite a shock. Am I sure he is dead? No I am not... he's just not here. He NEVER leaves the area. Mom and I searched all over our properties. No Pookie. I am afraid he went off somewhere to die, I am sure of it, but I wish I could find him. It is so hard not knowing for sure. It is so hard to say goodbye when you just don't know.... But I fear I must. So, Goodbye Old Man. I love you, and I will miss you!

I hope that by tomorrow I can some print a "retraction" and he has shown back up, but I fear that hope is futile.

A Couple of Pages...

Here are a few pages I have done recently!


This one I did for the DT of Sketches! {by Tamara} for the recipe challenge to use Chipboard, 3 Patterned papers, and Circles.




These I did today for a crop at my Yahoo group Scrap_Happy. I did some more, but the pictures are terrible, so I will post them later!

I love hte Little Yellow Bicycle papers used on this page! I used a Sketch from Becky Fleck at PageMaps. Stitching has become a favorite of mine!
I was so glad to be able to use up some of my older stash of Kaleidescope papers on the next two pages!


Thanks for looking and come again soon for more pages!!!
