Find the Kitty Saturday
It seems like I never have my “big” camera around these days (I keep it in a drawer for safekeeping) so I usually resort to the cell phone camera. Unfortunately, the phone camera is not so hot, but hey– it’s a photo! I was laying in bed one morning, shuddering under the mountain of blankets [...]

Thursday, January 19, 2012
Goofy is my mascot. He’s a small resin character and he sits in my desk. He tends to flop over easily. But I still love him. This morning, Livvy hopped onto my desk and sat in front of my computer monitor as she usually does 200 times a day. Goofy seemed a little miffed. He [...]

Livvy the Half Siamese Cat has acquired this new penchant for super-duper, fresh spring water. Can you find the kitty? She’s so cute. Whenever we open the door to run water from the spigot, she reaches in, between the door and the fridge, with her paw to “catch” some of the water. If we dare [...]

Thursday, December 1, 2011
We went on a two-day trip and left our half-Siamese baby, Livvy, alone in the house. Well– we also left the two Yorkshire terriers and the cockatiel, too, but they are mere pets. They are also contained (the dogs in a large penned area and the bird in a cage), so Livvy has the rule [...]

Oh we haven’t had such a cute Find the Kitty Friday photo in a long time. My daughter got this shot with her cell phne (which explains the grainy-ness of the photo). I love it when she makes that “peekaboo” face. CUTE! She’s been in a “hiding mode” lately. We have to constantly check for [...]

What IS it with cats and laundry? At least, with THIS cat and laundry. She’s always skulking around the dirty and clean clothes. She likes to hide behind the mounds surrounding the washer. Then she likes to try to hop in the dryer while I’m pulling them out. Finally, she jumps in the basket of [...]

Yep, we’re still here. Still in the same rickety old house! I’ve just been busy and renovating has come to a grinding halt right now, although Lord knows we have yet to batten down the hatches for winter. We still have to fix the chimney, and the windows need to be ordered so we can [...]

Tuesday, September 27, 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 [...]

We’re back! We were gone for a week in the Adirondack Mountains in Upstate New York! The Adirondacks is the largest park in the country. It’s 6 million acres of mountains, lakes and thick forests. In the northern parts, it’s pretty rugged. I was going to leave Livvy to fend for herself alone at home [...]
Continue reading...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!
