I thought it would be nice if we started our day off at the Wizzley Round Table with a cup of coffee or tea and welcome in the new day. What are your plans today? I plan to finish an article I'm writing and hopefully start another one.

Yesterday I bought a nifty, new mop, and I'm going to see how well it works. Exciting! lol

I forgot that we're all on different time zones. It's 9:20 a.m. here and I'm having a diet coke now. It's hot here also. The U.S. is having the hottest summer in recorded history. I find this very disturbing. I wonder if we are all going to join the dinosaurs.

I imagine there is an air of excitement in your country. Have a wonderful day or at least, what's left of it.

I overslept. I'm having my coffee to unglue my eyes. today I'll do some laundry in my mini washer. I'm still on my 20-minute plan for cleaning. I have to tackle the craft table. It's going to be a hot one so I'll hunker down in front of the ac and at the computer. I'm going to try to come up with an idea for an article. That's about my day. Oh, and do dishes that I neglected last night and walk the dogs.

lil, your life is exciting as mine, but I enjoy it. Have you thought of writing an ebook on living on the lean. Show people that it can be done. In a way, I envy you. I'd like to have a not too big motor home, and the money to travel around the U.S. with my four dogs and two cats, writing and looking for a place to settle down.

I realize that you aren't traveling around, but that's what I'd like to do.

I would love to have a big motor home pulling a trailer that would be my studio. I could go from one craft fair to another. But I wouldn't have a garden or sheep or all that good stuff. Not that I have it now, but maybe someday again.

I'm living a bit more lean than I really would want anyone to.

I just realized I have to run to the store to get more toilet paper. I refuse to do without!

I got a brand new kitty yesterday, after being kitty-less for a couple of years. My husband -- who has awful dander allergies but loves pets anyway -- has been bugging me for months to let him get a pet. He lured me into a pet store and talked me into holding this adorable two-month-old mix-but-mainly-Russian Blue boycat and all it took was five seconds of holding him and there was no way I could say no. Also, hubby's puppy-dog-pleading look helped his attempts by a fair bit too. :P

Lots of love and attention going to this little guy who is currently warming my lap and my heart. In between that, I'll finish up an article I've been working on. Then later I have to go to the store and get some people-food and some tin foil + string for a cheap cat toy that won't leave my hands scratched when our brave little kitty Valor gets overzealous with his toy mousie and gets the toy and my hand too. Plus some Benadryl and Claritin for the hubby -- Benadryl for at night since it makes him sleepy, and Claritin for the day since it's non-drowsy but less effective. Which shouldn't be a problem with him working outside of the house for most of the day. But I'm still kinda nervous. Wish us luck!

JShea, Good luck with that kitty. I say a man who loves animals is a good man.

Hi Everyone,

It's almost 4:30 now but I mainly sat here at the computer today working on a new design for my Zazzle store.  Sometimes I get very caught up in creating and the time flies by.

I had some trees taken down yesterday and had to move huge limbs and logs by my lonesome so I'm giving my back a rest.

Congrats on the new kitty Jshea - hope you are having fun!

Brenda and Lana - glad you remembered to buy the toilet paper!

Have a good evening - morning or whatever you are having now.Wink

It's Friday morning for me, I've got a load of washing in the machine, I've dropped dd off at school and am now sitting at the computer with a big mug of tea and a to do list - I'm feeling very organized today................don't know how long that will last though! 

I haven't planned on doing any Wizzleying today, but I had to check out the forum anyway as I'd hate to miss out on anything.

I haven't owned a cat in 13 years, although my dog seems to think he's a cat at times which is funny - he would love to sit on my lap while I was on the computer as well, but he's much too big for that so instead he'll lie down near the computer seat and when he thinks he's been neglected he'll stretch out and push the chair away from the computer and then jump up as if to say, 'oh you've finished'.   Gotta love our pets haven't we Smile

Well I'm off to start on my to do list - catch up with you all later.

I ordered a miracle berry tree today, after building a wizzle about it, my wizzle was designed to tell people about the berry (that turns your taste buds into all sweet for an hour just by eating one of them) and how they could throw "taste tripping" parties (they're called), or start a business selling the plants that make them etc... it ended up getting me more excited to get one and play with it... going to try to use it to curb my sugar addiction- think of it, drinking cool aid with no sugar and it tastes full of sugar... 

Haven't been motivated to write new wizzles or fix old hubs then Michelle mentioned this berry thing and a page was born... funny where inspiration comes from huh?

p.s. we have 2 cats and a kitten- just got the kitten a year ago and she's been a joy!

I was up at 5 am, had a burning idea for a wizz, fininshed it, not published yet, went outside for my morning coffee and breakfast @ 8am and cleaned my garage.  Then soaked in my hot tub, came inside again showered dressed and played the rest of the day.  8pm and I'm back to work...

Pets are great and I too have a wonderful cat, jelly bean is my shadow and bestest buddy.

This is great that it's morning where some of you are. I stay up really late and sometimes until 1,2 and here lately almost 3 in the morning. For some reason, I just could not focus today, but I hope to get back to my articles tonight.

I have 2 cats and 4 dogs. I used to be mainly a dog person, but now I'm leaning toward a cat person. I love all animals, and I'd probably have a cow and pig if I could.

Dusty, I've been working on a Zazzle shop and later I want to get your opinion on it.

My cats and kittens are so amazingly cute, they are always laying in cute cuddly positions (bigger cat and kitten). I'm considering just snapping a bunch of HD images and making zazzle shirts, mugs etc... but finding the time ah the time... I'd probably like to pay someone later to jumpstart my shop :) for now I'll gather images...
