It's not my fault!

I know, I know what you're going to say... "She started off well, but there's just no follow-through." Not true!

I wanted to blog, I promise, but I was struck down by a vicious sickness last week! It was awful! I had a medium-high fever for 48 hours and felt pretty crappy the next day, too. I've been coughing nonstop since then. Last night I got the first good night of sleep in seven days. So, after a week's hiatus, I'm back.

Yesterday we went to J's sister's place to celebrate the three February birthdays in J's family. Here he is, enjoying his limited time with a cat. He's very allergic, but they have a breed that is very non-allergenic, so he thinks we're getting one in a few years. Wrong.














I also finished some fun crafty stuff last week that I didn't get pictures of until after the sickness hit. This is a design called "Ghost Birds" by the fabulous Amiee Ray of Dreamfollow.com:













Her original version is very much a winter design, which I like a lot, but I wanted to see if I could play around with the colors a bit and get something much more summery. What do you think? Does it work?
