Find the Kitty Friday
My daughter snapped this on her cell phone. Where could that skulking kitty be?! She’s doing it rite! LOL Well, another year is winding down. I haven’t been thinking of any thoughts on renovation lately until about a month ago. It was about that time that I really “let” my desk “go.” I have always [...]

27. September 2011
I wonder if Livvy is the first cat to ever climb Blue Mountain, in the Adirondack Mountain range of New York State? Our climb was quite the adventure! The mountain rises about 3700 feet into the atmosphere, and the views are incredible. The climb, however, is rather laborious. Livvy could only get so far. She [...]

1. September 2011
…and how do I know that? Why the stink in the dog room is starting to subside. A little. Like celebrity wedding trends, the smells of doggies waxes and wanes with the humidity. LOL. But aren’t they the cutest little things? We’ve been doing a little experiment with Smell Control. So far, the best cleanser [...]

25. August 2011
She’s been doing it ever since she was a baby: cuddles. Unfortunately, I don’t have any photos of her cuddling because, well, because she usually cuddling the photographer (me) in the wee hours of the morning. It’s like a routine with her. Early every morning — sometimes as early as 4am but other times later [...]

13. August 2011
We’ve been away from the house so often this summer (a roofing project) that Livvy has spent long periods of time alone. I’m starting to get a little concerned. LOL Seriously, when we leave, she moans and howls quite loudly out the window. As we drive away, we can hear her pleas through the window. [...]

4. July 2011
Oh she’s a BIG BAD PUMA when she’s outside. But put on a great big Uncle Sam hat for the Fourth of July, and Livvy’s a little baby cat who needs her mommy. LOL. My husband got a huge patriotic hat for Independence Day. Think “Cat in the Hat” size. Yeah, it actually spooked me, [...]

27. June 2011
Well, well. This will take care of the weeds in the garden. I came right up to the thing, about 3 feet away. It’s a young buck, can you see his stubby antlers? He kept rubbing them on his leg. When I tried to touch him, he jumped out of the garden and wandered around [...]

3. June 2011
It’s one of her favorite chores. Can ya guess? From what I have seen on your blogs, it looks to be one of a kitty’s favorite things– “helping” to make the bed. LOL. Livvy LOVES it. She races all around the mattress as the sheets and blankets flap up and down, snagging and grasping the [...]

I’m Rebecca
:) I’m a married mom of four teenage children. We live in Upstate New York. We bought an old 1855 home and acre property, over 10 years ago. We've been in the slow, agonizing process of living in the home while (trying) to renovate it. When I'm not renovating, I'm a freelance writer and blogger.
We've learned to dig a French drain, plant huge flower and vegetable gardens, wire a circuit panel, install furnace ducting, understand the enigmatic complexities of the plumbing system, and more. It's been *quite* the adventure.
You can read more about us here, read up on the history of the home, and read about what we've renovated so far. Thanks for visiting!
