International Guitar Month

Apparently this month is International Guitar Month.  Who know?  I guess this is the sort of stuff you find when you are looking for obscure holidays.  Hahaha :)

This guitar was given to me by one of my friends a long time ago.  There have been two distinct times in my life since receiving this that I decided that I would teach myself how to play the guitar.  The first time, I learned about four chords that let me do a couple songs I had.  The second time I decided to use a phone app that would guide me through lessons.  Both times I quit practicing before I got any good.  So I guess that makes me one of those people who owns a guitar that they can't play.  :)

Stuffed Animals

The Zoo opens today!!  I won't go today, but I can't wait to go next week!!  Tarcil is helping me celebrate this exciting time by posing with his favorite stuffed animals.  :)

Antique Clock

This antique clock belonged to my husband's grandma.  It was made in Germany, and it still works!  Well, I can hear it ticking all day, but it doesn't seem have the correct time on it at the moment.  :)

TBT - Administrative Professionals Day

Yesterday was Earth Day which was widely known, but it was also Administrative Professionals Day! And as the administrator for my church's youth group, I wanted to do a throw back to this picture of Tarcil in my tote bag that I use for my work at church.  :)

As I mentioned last time I posted this picture, the design on this tote bag was created by the incredibly talented Aimee Ray!  You can check out Aimee's artwork at aimeeray.com, follow her blog at www.littledeartracks.blogspot.com, and buy original art at www.littledear.etsy.com.  She is also on instagram at aimee0ray.  This particular pattern on the tote came from her book: Doodle Stitching: The Motif Collection which can be found on Amazon. You really should check out her stuff... it's amazing and adorable! :)

Earth Day!

Happy Earth Day!

I bought myself some herbs, and Tarcil is "helping" me plant them!  This is the start of my very own herb garden!!  :)

Bailey

I am dog sitting for my brother's dog, Bailey!  She is so much fun and a little crazy sometimes... Haha.  I let Tarcil in her bed when she wasn't around.  I just can't get over how tiny he looks in that big bed!!  :)

New Tower

Today is Patriot's Day!  I have been working on this new tower for Tarcil for quite a while now.  I finally finished it!  This gives him so much more to do in his cage while not taking away from the ground space he has since this is multiple levels above the floor.  He loves it!  And as you can see, he claimed it for America.  Haha :)
