This is Gus, originally uploaded by mewpaperarts.
Gus, who’s been tugging on my heart strings since he bumbled into our family last night. We went to a party to celebrate our friend’s 50th birthday. One of the guests had a litter of 3 male kittens arrive at her door, so she brought them to [...]

My creation, originally uploaded by mewpaperarts.
Well, in order to balance all of the negativity in the "10 things I can't stand" post, here are ten things I love the crap out of! Now, there is no mention of Dino in this grid, but not more my lack of undying love for the fella…more, because it's [...]

I was tagged once. This is kind of like being tagged. I searched on flickr for the name of ten things I really [...]

The scooter adventures continue…I can hardly believe that I’ve already clocked 100 miles on the thing just zippin’ around town. Most of my journeys involve getting ice [...]

Farm Girl, originally uploaded by mewpaperarts.
Look familiar? She ought to! This little farm girl started out as a tawny brunette a few weeks ago, and after posting her on my flickr page I got lots of postive feedback and requests to make her into "something".
Being a stationery designer, it seemed natural to make her into…stationery. [...]

Queen Anne, originally uploaded by mewpaperarts.
Now, don’t be getting your knickers all in a twist, he’s on his way back! He went up to Rochester for the weekend to visit his family for Father’s Day. I wasn’t able to go with him because I had my darling nephew’s 2nd birthday party to attend, [...]

Let's be clear–there's no way for the helmet to look stylish or sassy. Most especially so when donning it in your [...]

It really IS a small world after all!

Now, stop humming that incessant tune and get on to reading the post!
Lately I’ve been starting to delve into the idea of some more overseas travel.  It’s been ages since I’ve gone to Europe and I’ve never been to Italy.  My dad, Vito, is a first generation Italian immigrant who came from a little, rustic [...]
