So it’s been over a year since I’ve updated this blog! I’m going to be leaving it up for a while, but in reality I’ve moved house. You can find me now at Tea Kettle Kitten, my tumblr. Tumblr is a bit of a nuthouse compared to a regular blog, but I’m having fun carving out my own little corner of crazy. Come and visit sometime!
We are as clouds that veil the midnight moon;
How restlessly they speed, and gleam, and quiver,
Streaking the darkness radiantly!–yet soon
Night closes round, and they are lost for ever;
Or like forgotten lyres, whose dissonant strings
Give various response to each varying blast,
To whose frail frame no second motion brings
One mood or modulation like the last.
We rest. — A dream has power to poison sleep;
We rise. — One wandering thought pollutes the day;
We feel, conceive or reason, laugh or weep;
Embrace fond woe, or cast our cares away:
It is the same!–For, be it joy or sorrow,
The path of its departure still is free:
Man’s yesterday may ne’er be like his morrow;
Nought may endure but Mutability.
“Well,” said Pooh, “what I like best,” and then he had to stop and think. Because although Eating Honey was a very good thing to do, there was a moment just before you began to eat it which was better than when you were, but he didn’t know what it was called. ~A.A. Milne
Jon made me this over the weekend. It’s under an inch high and super adorable with its tiny door and chimney :D The backdrop is an old knitting project, a seed stitch blanket that will probably never be completed.
These are two of my favorite little friends who live on my desk at home: Teeny Kitteh and the Happy Hermit. The Happy Hermit is extra special because he is hand felted by my favorite artist duo, APAK. He was a special present from Jon a Christmas or two ago. I sometimes like to call him the apple head man, and talk about his life of leisure :D
