Whats on my desk this week is 2 of the Christmas cards that I have been working on.  I feel they are a little bare and need something else on them.  So if anyone else has any ideas of what else I could do to them please say.
For those who like to see the kittens  2 of them went to the same home so here is a picture of 2 of them in their new home.

WOYWW week 75

Here is my desk this morning and it's piled high with no space to work.  So what's in all the pile, CD's that I have been using.  I love the Joanna Sheen messy rabbit cd it has some lovely decoupage on it and was a bargain at £5 from Joanna Sheens web site.
Here is a picture of the kittens under the desk playing with my OH's trainers that he has just abandoned. Later he will moan about why his laces are all chewed.

WOYWW week 73

Well whats on my desk today.  The kittens are now climbing on the desk so 2 of them are on my desk today.  As they are 6 weeks old now they are very mobile and are eating me out of house and home.

People have asked if they are a breed well  they are cross Maine Coons as Sammy who was neutered about 3 months ago managed to breed with Polly much to my horror.  It turned out that I was a week late neutering him.  At present 3 of them have confirmed homes. 

Some people were asking about my die storage system well if you want a better look it is Here

WOYWW week 72

Well what's on my desk today.  I have been using my cuttlebug so the storage folder and some of the scraps are still on my desk this morning.  I have had a long lie today and didn't get up till 9am so the sun is now shining in the room which makes a lovely change.

For the people who like to see the kittens they are 5 weeks old now and mum has moved them again to under my desk.  Which means that I have to be very careful when I move the chair so as not to hurt a kitten that is running about.

WOYWW week 71

Today I have a picture of my new chair.  A few weeks ago I saw a rather nice looking orange chair on a blog sorry I cant remember whose it was.  But they were saying how comfortable it was.  As I was needing a new chair I decided this chair was what I wanted so here it is.  And I have to add yes it is very comfortable so if you are wanting a new chair check out Ikea for this Markus chair
For those who like to see the kittens they are doing really well and are now starting to eat real kitten food.  So here are 4 of them having breakfast this morning 2 of them are not as interested yet but they all soon will be fighting over the meat.

WOYWW week 70

Well time to show my desk again so what's on it this week. The biscuits that my son made at school are and I haven't eaten them all yet so that's a achievement.  My purse it seems is on my desk far to often this means I must be spending to much money on-line.
 For those that are interested the kittens are 3 weeks old and are starting to show their personalities.  The smallest 2 are the most feisty and seem to be the most active.  I am still hand feeding the 2 small ones but they are doing fine and gaining weight easily now.  They come running over to me as soon as I go near them and can climb up over their bed to get out to me for their milk and boy can they scream for milk.  They will soon be getting real food.

WOYWW week 69

Well Wednesday again and what's on my desk today a mess I think sums it up.


For those of you who like to see the kittens they are now 2 weeks old and some of them are huge and 2 of them are rather small so they are getting topped up with milk.

WOYWW week 68

Well what's on my desk this Wednesday.  My desk is quiet tidy today and not much on it.  The jug with the syringe in it is milk for the kittens as 2 of them are smaller than the others and I have been topping them up.  So that was left on the desk after  feeding then at 5am. 

So now a picture of the kittens they are cross kittens as Sammy who was neutered (just a week to late) is the daddy and Polly is mum.

Hope you have a great Wednesday.  If you want to see some more desks pop over to Julias Blog

WOYWW week 67

Well what is on my desk this Wednesday.  I had to do a sympathy card for a friend of my OH.  So as usual I couldn't find anything suitable so ran to a couple of local craft shops but couldn't find anything there.  So had a look at a download site and found a decoupage sheet that was just what I was looking for.  But there was a minimum spend so found some nice looking cupcake sheets so I have been printing them.  Also are some decoupage toppers from the La Pashe christmas range that I have made up as I am going to make some christmas cards soon well I hope to.


For those that are interested in the pups there is only one left and he is going to his new home on Friday.  The rest have now left for their new homes.  So I parted with Buster who was my favourite.  Next week I will have kitten pictures as Polly gave birth to 6 kittens yesterday.  Yes I know I am mad with all these animals.

WOYWW week 66

Wednesday again and time to show whats on our desks.

Well mine is a mess today.  I have been finishing of some cards that I made a wee while ago.  I am bad for doing the front of the card and not finishing it so I have printed out some inserts to complete a few cards.
The puppies were 8 weeks old yesterday so 2 of them have left for their new homes and I have to say the work load has lightened. So here is a picture of 2 of them having just finished breakfast they are having a morning snooze.

Wednesday again and time to show what's on our desks. Well today I have the blog candy prize on my desk if you would like to win the candy click on the image at the top of the page.
 For those that are interested in the puppies here is a rather cute picture of Buster.  He always seems to get in front of the camera and sits so nice for photos.  They will be starting to leave for their new homes soon so I guess I should take loads of pictures this week.
