We like to share a photo and thoughts from our week, but I confess, that the above photo was taken two weeks ago while we were on the East Coast. It shows little A in his element  – surrounded by kitties! That guy loves a cat like I would have never expected. He now has 4 stuffed kitties of varying sizes, and while I tried to capture him holding all of them at once (he’s been walking around the house with them), the photo escaped me! Maybe it’s because I spent the week feeling sleep deprived. I stopped drinking coffee while we were traveling for the holidays, but this week proved that I had to start up again (just a half cup in the morning), if I want to survive Alex’s early mornings! The coffee has also given me the power to start a few new knitting projects, finish others (more soon!) and straighten up this house, particularly my craft room/office, in an attempt to get our year off to an organized and creative start!

I can’t believe January is nearly over! I feel like 2015 is moving way too fast already.  To slow it down, I’ve been taking longer dog walks and drinking bigger smoothies.  That makes sense, right?  This week I came up with a new way of holding Ca$h’s leash.  It’s basically a way to pit my entire body weight against his strength.   That sounds complicated, but it’s really not.  I’ll post a pic to IG tomorrow so you know what I’m talkin’ about.  Yesterday I made an enormous creamy cashew smoothie and it was SO tasty!

Here’s a smoothie sippin’ outtake. This is why I don’t allow myself to appear in photos.  See my smoothie ‘stache? Cashew smoothies are so creamy and delicious. Yum, yum, yum!
