Happy Cattiversary!

On August 2, 2022 By nanasworldwebIn Foster and Panda15 Comments

"Hey, Foster, guess what day it is?" I pondered the question for a moment. "Umm. . . I don't know," I replied. "Tuesday?" "Well," Panda replied, "that's a good answer, but think again." I thought some more. "I give up," I said at length. "What day is it? "Dude!" Panda responded, "It's your six-year cattiversary!" …

More Blog Material

On July 21, 2022 By nanasworldwebIn Foster and Panda18 Comments

So, being a cat, I often find myself the subject of "blog material". The problem is, Mom is constantly taking pictures of me, citing "blog material" as the reason, but then she never seems to use most of them in our actual blog. So the other day she said I could pick out some pictures …

Panda’s Pajamas

On July 2, 2022 By nanasworldwebIn Foster and Panda16 Comments

Okay, I have to admit this is a little embarrassing. Mom decided I needed a new outfit...again! She says it's because Foster and I play so rough that I'm always getting holes in me and she's afraid my stuffing will come out. She's repaired me so many times, but now she says even my patches …

Table Update

On June 14, 2022 By nanasworldwebIn Mosaics13 Comments

We all know that grouting is the best part, right? I guess it is, if you're outside and you're not too stressed about getting the color wrong. The other day it was time to put the grout on the mosaic table. I was almost out of that color, but fortunately I had enough to finish …

Finding Frank (Or Not)

On June 6, 2022June 10, 2022 By nanasworldwebIn Family History11 Comments

First, I’m starting to think there never was a Frank. Second, I’m getting irritated at the census taker who either: A) Wrote the name “Frank” on the 1920 census when he never existed, or B) Wrote the name of a kid named Frank who did exist but wasn’t John Alfred and Madge’s son. In the …

Almost Done!

On May 11, 2022 By nanasworldwebIn Mosaics14 Comments

Or, "It's All Over But the Grouting!" This is where we left off on March 29, in "The Table Mosaic". The view is from the back living room window, and I had just started to put the pieces around the little plate in the center. Gradually, the design grew. And as you can see, I …

Tea and Crumpets

On April 12, 2022April 12, 2022 By nanasworldwebIn Uncategorized18 Comments

"Uhhh...what are crumpets?" As soon as I saw this clue on the crossword puzzle I was doing awhile back, I knew what I was going to call this post. April 13 of this year, as you may know, is the sixth anniversary of my husband Mark's passing. In memory of his life, and his love …

The Table Mosaic

On March 29, 2022 By nanasworldwebIn Mosaics12 Comments

You can only let a table sit there for so long without a mosaic, right? You may know by now that a flat, empty space anywhere is just a project waiting to happen at my house. This is not to say that much contemplation hasn't gone into (most of) my projects. But finally the idea …

Thy Father’s Commandment

On March 21, 2022April 5, 2022 By nanasworldwebIn Family History18 Comments

"My son, keep thy father's commandment, and forsake not the law of thy mother." Proverbs 6:20 March 21, 1954 I'm sure everyone remembers phrases their parents "always said". Later in life, we can "hear" them in our minds, and often we hear our own voices saying the exact same things, to our children or grandchildren, …

Gems on the Driveway

On March 14, 2022March 14, 2022 By nanasworldwebIn House and Yard, Mosaics12 Comments

Did you ever notice how plain your driveway looks? Don't you think it could use some decorations? Or am I the only one who thinks like that? Well, if you have the mosaic supplies, what doth hinder you? It all started out innocently enough. I thought it would be fun to put little mosaic flowers …
