I'm so terribly sorry for the loss of your little Maxxine. What a lucky girl she was to have been discovered<br />by you and loved in your family.

Which, as you noted, was not an option. Dang, we're old.<br /><br />I can jag out a tear any time I think of my old cat Larry, who was a similar age.

So instead it was Home Ec, where I regularly burned meals and "sewed" a couple of things that were supposed to be some type of garment. Humph. I think we've showed them now. ;-) I would love to see the cradle you created for your daughter. Could you email a picture?Lisa Walshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13881705944744985243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6034593589876200675.post-89309970282272731232010-12-01T22:37:42.719-06:002010-12-01T22:37:42.719-06:00Your fence is amazing!

Have to admit that I wanted to take shop when I was in junior high - not home economics - but it wasn't permitted. Sweetest revenge - I have my own power tools now :) <br />When my daughter was born I designed and made a cradle for her doll babies - and she is now using it for her daughters.<br /> <br />So sorry to hear about your beautiful, sweet kitty cat. There is such a hole left behind when they are gone.Claire Beadon Carnellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15601511184498614133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6034593589876200675.post-9889557300142534202010-12-01T10:44:25.900-06:002010-12-01T10:44:25.900-06:00We appreciate everyone's sympathies about Maxx...We appreciate everyone's sympathies about Maxxine. We really miss the little goofball.<br /><br />Thanks oodles, Deb. There's no hubby, I'm the construction maven around here, and it's something I enjoy. I thought about becoming an architect long, long ago, but got bitten by the zookeeper bug.<br /><br />LOL Rhonda, I can just picture you sitting comfortably on the veranda, fan in one hand, glass of iced tea in the other, and fluttering your lashes at a capable handyman. hee-hee<br /><br />Thank you, Cynnie.

Whenever anything mechanical involving power tools has to be done, I just take out my fan and say, "I've always depended on the kindness of strangers" and let someone who knows what they're doing fix it for me. I'm just not mechanically minded. This looks good, too :) So sorry about the passing of your lovely kitty.RH Carpenterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05497161758269292809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6034593589876200675.post-52110065881889347952010-11-30T16:19:35.927-06:002010-11-30T16:19:35.927-06:00Your varied talents amaze me, the fence looks grea...Your varied talents amaze me, the fence looks great (did you let you husband help at all??).
