Remembering December 2024 as told by Yang

Fenris was still with us. I sure did love my brother. We hung out a lot, especially after Socks died. The girls were always getting hissed off at me.

Sometimes I had to find a man cave.

Mom says she needs to clean up the garage. 

This is a favorite spot of mine and Yin's.






Chimera liked to hang out with the dog guy and Mom, when she didn't feel good.


We think she fell on a nail in the garage. The cabinets (where she liked to get) started falling and there was a nail poking out.

Dr. Lisa fixed her up.

Fenris spent most of his time indoors with Mom.

And Scylla supervised the Holiday decorations.


 This picture was taken shortly before Scylla died.

Remembering Chimera and Scylla as told by Yang

Chimera really liked the dog guy, when she got a puncture wound on her face he helped take care of her. 


Scylla liked him to he feed her treats.

Alas the dog guy wasn't here when Scylla died so youngest boy had to bury her. He and Mom decided to bury her in the Charybdis bed, so they would be together again.

I watched the proceedings and paid my last respects.




Ladybug likes it when the dog guy is here he buys them hamburgers, and after Fenris died he started bringing Maize with him when he came. Maize is his dog. Eventually he decided to just leave Maize here.

Caturday Art with Slippy and Yin

This was Connie Prince's Mini Kit Challenge since Mom has been busy working in the yard Slippy and Miss Yin lent a paw.

Created with rewards. Doesn't the black cat look a lot like Hershey?

Daily Download with Slippy & Miss Yin, they were helping with the yard work too.

Slippy and Miss Maize helped with the Jumpstart Mini. Miss Maize is M's dog but she lives with us now. Alas M doesn't, he only gets to visit sometimes.

This is a mask challenge. Mom always has trouble with them but she thinks this turned out pretty good.

Mini kit Challenge. 

Another Mini Kit Challenge. We just love the bunny.


 This was a Template Challenge. 

Hope you enjoyed our artwork. ~Miss Maize, Miss Yin, and Slippy  

Remembering Jackie

 


Jackie traditionally posted each Friday for Flashback Friday and Caturday Art.  
A direct LINK to what is now her final post on May 1 is shown below.  
Her dear husband, of over fifty years, Ivor, will be able to read any 
comments of condolence you may wish to leave on this post.  


 
Eric and Flynn use to go on adventures with Socks, oh those were the days! In later years Jackie never failed to comment on our Caturday Art post, we so looked forward to reading her kind words. And we always enjoyed stopping by her blog to remember Eric and Flynn's past adventures and admire Jackie's artwork of the boys. She will be missed so very much. 

The Art of Memories

Instead of Scrap Bingo this month Pickleberrypop did the Art of Memories. It's harder for me to do as you have lots more requirements and less artistic freedom. This was the art of mixing. You had to mix different kits together and you weren't allowed to recolor. 

This was a single line of focus.

The Art of Extracting. I find extracting easier now thanks to the new software. I actually do a lot of the extracting on my iPhone. 

Use it All Challenge. This was one of the easiest to do.

Tic Tac Toe Challenge, you had to pick a row and follow the requirements for that row.

Decorate a Face. This was one of my favorites.

The Art of Thinking Inside the Box. This was the hardest for me. But thankfully Oreo and Ladybug were willing to help. 


 The Art of Balance.

 

Thanks for visiting us. ~Sandra
