Update on the Critters

The furry babies are playing great right now.  Fuzzy still swats at her but he is more tolerant when she decides to play with his big, orange tail :).  She follows him around like a pesky little sister now.  I think he now realizes she is his new partner in crime and he can teach her mischief.  She likes to walk across the key board so I have to keep her busy when I am on the computer.  She feels she has a lot to blog about.  She might be right :). (I need to hurry.  She is sweetly sitting on my lap and not being a wiggle worm.  I keep her occupied and Fuzzy gets some rest from being chased for his fluffy orange tail.)

Luckily this weekend was a lot more productive than last weekend.  I was able to make some sales, visit some friends and get some PR work done.  Today was lazy. You have to have those lazy days!  I am looking forward to a great week.  It will be good - I will it to be so!!!!

Truly Sexy

In the product launch on August 6, Pure Romance announced a perfume - Truly Sexy.  It smells awesome!  I took a sniff on Monday at our team meeting.  Light, beautiful, fantastic scent.  Go to my website kimberlywhitford.pureromance.com for more information!

(I truthfully love that bottle!!!)

I can just see the mischief she is planning!

A little bit normal

The whole weekend was a blur. I slept a lot however I felt like I had no rest.  Monday at work I was emotionally drained.  It was a 5:30 AM day and that makes the day rough to begin with -- add being just drained, it was all I could do to make it.  I can usually handle the chaos of class day, but I really just didn't want to deal with the yahoos this week.  I can say I was ready to get the heck out of dodge at 2:30.  

That night I had a PR Team Meeting and it was great just to get the energy and support of my fellow PR Sisters. When I got back from the meeting, Jimmy had a surprise for me.  A little black and white kitten. She is such a beauty!  He said he had been thinking about it for a few weeks.  And that she is not a replacement for Sierra (she could never be!).  I figure I can't deny a cute little feline a cozy home and lots of cuddles and love.  She is a nut!!!  Fuzzy is still not sure about her but I think they will soon be best friends.  I am picturing lots of mischief.  

I want to give a big shout out to All Paws Go to Heaven.  That is the company Jimmy found to gather Sierra up. They delivered her back to the apartment in a pretty cedar box.  They also gave us a candle, a copy of the Rainbow Bridge and a paw shaped seeds to grow a plant in memory of my sweet baby.  We had to deal with my car and a dead battery so I was very relieved when they came to pick her up. 

I have lots of pictures of Lucy on my cell phone.  Gotta get them to the computer so I can post!  

 

Worst Weekend in a very long time

My sweet Sierra went to the Rainbow Bridge on Friday night.  It's been a rough 24 hours without her, but I had folks rally around me as I dealt with her loss. It was kind of a shock for me but I think she knew something was happening.  She cuddled up to me as much as she could that last week.  It was like she was trying to show me all the love she had.  She was 14 years old and  lived a pretty cushy kitty life (well, others have said I spoiled them too much.  I don't think that is possible!).  

  

My main thing was that I wanted to have her cremated.  Jimmy found a cremation place that would actually come to our place to pick her up.  We will be able to get her back in 2-4 days.  The apt pickup made that part a bit easier. While Jimmy was dealing with the guy in the other room, I was able to come to my own bed to cry.  I decided that she was going to be cremated with Mr. Moose's head - this toy she's had since she was a kitten. It was so shabby and tattered!  But she still loved it.  It's fitting.

Fuzzy has been giving extra cuddles to me and I appreciate his ability to know when mamma needs kisses.  He hasn't been an only child for a few years so I am curious as to how he will do.

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge. 

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. 
There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. 
There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable. 

All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. 
The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind. 

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent; His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster. 

You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart. 

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....
