Hypothermic!

Is that a word? Well it is now! I've only had the door open to kick the cat out - literally! I had to shoehorn him out as I only opened it an inch! I'm kidding.... I opened it 2 inches! It was fun as this kitty cat is about 8 inches wide! He was a bit like a cork... Still he's got a fur coat on... He's back in now though tucked in his little furry igloo. Rather cosy, I wonder if they do human sized ones?

So a couple of pictures of my latest Birthday Book - in pink as requested. I did alternate the pages with a rich cream which I think works quite well as a contrast, a hint of green here and there to make it a bit more of a grown up pink. Well that was the plan! Even my OM looked at it and said how pretty it was - comments like that are usually crowbarred from him!

This shows the inside pages, I suppose in retrospect I could have done the text in green or pink. By the time I'd realised that though I'd got half of it stuck together!


Finally a picture of Albert! Albert is a caramel corn snake. The only thing is we now think he is a she... Albert has no idea of 'her' name though (ever seen a snake come running when you call it??) but Albert seems to have stuck - so Albert it is! Snakes aren't slimy, or cold. Albert feels lovely and silky when you hold her. If she gets the chance she heads up your sleeve or for a pocket. One of my favourites is when she got in the BIg L's pocket - she stayed there for ages and only came out when she'd had a poo! Oh how I laughed! He didn't think it was funny somehow..


Anyway Bloggettes keep warm and if you see any big furry igloos let me know!
