Fur Baby Love

I said there would be kittens. And there was kittens.

And I fell totally in love with one.
Can you guess which?


It may be hard to choose between all of those sweet little creatures. Let me give you another hint.


This little white beauty.

Look at that tail!! And she (quite sure it's a female - only took a quick glance) has super bright blue eyes and a grey nose to match her little ears and tail. I couldn't get a picture of the little angel's face, but trust me. She is perfect, and I love her.

But I probably can't have her...
We don't really own our place, and the person who bought it for us to live in doesn't like cats.

Unfortunately, the mortality rate of the cats on my grandparents farm is incredibly high on average. And right now they have a very aggressive tom cat that has been killing all of the litters that they haven't been fast enough to bring inside to safety.
She's white... she stands out - a lot.... and white cats with blue eyes have a 60-80% of being deaf.

I want to save her and bring her home to love forever.

She needs me.

I need her.

Updates, random shit, and Easter

First of all, regarding my last post...things are looking better. Not great, probably not even good, but better. 
Nothing life threatening is happening at the moment, but she is currently in hospital recovering from pneumonia. We visited on Wednesday and she looks tired, but she is her usual self and just wants to be home and warm. (Why are hospitals always so damn cold?)

Speaking of hospitals, I got the call and my surgery has been booked for May 27. My boss was amazing and is helping me organize with HR that I use short term disability and sick days instead of ALL of my vacation days to recover. Last time the week and three days off work just wasn't enough for how much I flail my arms around to do my job. 
I'll be off from May 27 to June 12 (plus the two days of weekend after the 12th).
Fingers crossed that everything works out with HR, and that this second surgery actually fixes the problem.

I finally bought a new purse. Not very exciting news, but my old beast of a purse was killing my shoulders because it was so massive and heavy. The current one, with all of my usual junk inside, weighs as much as the old one does with nothing in it! That's pretty bad. Plus, the new one has a shit ton of pockets, just like the old one. So, I'm not really compromising anything with the switch.
It's only been a couple of days and I already feel a difference. Ladies, heavy purses are NOT worth it.

I got my NuMe hair set in the mail this week. I'll do a whole separate post on that thing.

This coming week, Chris is going to paint the spare room for me. Then we can move all my stuff in to it and leave the larger room for a guest room, for now. I plan to buy a mirror and lights For above my desk to turn it into a kind of vanity. It will be nice to sit while doing my hair and makeup every morning. Plus, I won't have to worry about the steam/heat from the shower ruining my makeup products.
I'm looking forward to the finished product, though I'm still struggling to figure out how I'm going to be setting up the room. 


Tomorrow and Sunday I go to my grandparents' for each side of the family (dad's side and mum's) for Easter dinner. Good food, family, and probably a new litter of kittens to see! My grandparents (dad's side) raise the most well behaved and friendly cats I have ever met, and they are mostly outdoor barn cats. KITTENS!!!! So excited
There will most likely be pictures.

Happy Easter. I hope everyone eats until they burst. I know I will
