Catchin' Up, Cats and Stamps.

Sheesh it's been a long time since I was here!

For those of you who wondered where I've been...nowhere. It's just been another hectic few weeks at work.
I am so darn tired that my mojo has packed its bags and gone looking for somewhere else to live. We've also had a few weekends which have been taken up with visitors or visiting, and weekends are my only playtime!
I have nothing in the way of cards to share...so I thought I would fill you in on other bits 'n' pieces of what's been going on here. Feel free to not read any further!

We have had two cats, Bart and Lisa (yes, the kiddo's watched the Simpsons and named the cats)
Bart is actually a girl...long story but she is a girl and almost 13 years old. Lisa (aka The Killer, Tigger, and most frequently Naughty Pussy) is 4 years old.
My cats are very well looked after and totally adored and I was devastated when Bart passed away.
There was no indication that was poorly, she'd eaten as usual, been in the garden chasing leaves as usual, had 'tummy tickles' and she lay down in her favourite spot on the bedroom carpet for an afternoon nap.
I was in the spare room turning on my laptop when I heard a noise like a sneeze or a cough, I heard it again so I got up to see what the noise was and Bart had died, as quick as that.
I am very thankful that it was quick and she was at home, it was just such a shock.

Just to make me feel really terrible, a fortnight ago I was discussing the new Tim Holtz Distress Markers with Karen (Mrs Funkykits) and I asked Karen if she fancied a swap? She could send me a complete set of the markers and I would send her one husband, one son and two cats in return. She didn't take me up on my kind offer, but I really was only joking..I would never swap my cats for anything.

On the subject of my missing mojo...I went looking for it in my craft room, figuring it was just hiding somewhere between the rubber and papers. No, it's definitely gone :(
But I did find other stuff instead...like lots of unused stamps! I figure if I have more than a dozen stamps off one particular company that I've never inked then I ought not to buy anymore of them!

Stampin' Up....I love SU products, particularly the sentiments, and I did intend to write a bit about SU, but I fear this post is long enough to be turned into a mini series already, so I'll save it for another day.
If you've read this far then you're either very bored, an insomniac or my best buddy so I'll leave you with this...

A set of brand new SU stamps, Swirls and Curls. This is a Hostess set which I got multiple packs of so maybe someone else would like to give this pack a home.
These are rubber stamps pre-mounted on foam and they come in a clear DVD type case.
There are 5 stamps: Congratulations, Thanks So Much, Happy Birthday, Thinking Of You and Hello.
If you want them to come and live with you please mention it in a comment after this post.

Thanks for looking
Love
