Happy Caturday! {CoHost} - Cute Cats Everywhere

Art print available here.

Hey there people and Happy Caturday to you! I hope you are well, wherever in the world you may be!

As always, I am linking up my grateful list with Octavia and Vicky. My Caturday posts always follow the same formula. I'll talk about everything I'm grateful for then point out some fantastic kitty-related goodies. Grateful + Cats = Catful. Totally logical. Go with me on this :)

Hosted by A Cat-Like Curiosity & Butterfly In The Attic.

Here's what I am saying thanks for this week

134.  I am very grateful that I have Sunday off from my day job. 

135.  I am also grateful to have a day job with which I am able to support my family.

Here's my feline goodness for this week

This week I wanted to feature Simon's Cat. Have you ever seen any of his cartoons and videos? You really should - they're cute and funny at the same time. Here are some of my faves from the Simon's Cat website. Enjoy!

Cat vs toys - why is it they never want to play with the toys you buy or make? Why do they always want to play with something else entirely? Like a pen or whatever they're not allowed.

Cats as tigers - they are tigers really. I didn't realise there was an international Tiger day but I bet my cats did. Kitty sixth sense or something.

A cat for every occasion - even for Valentines!

A kitty food scrum - chaos, kitty fashion.

Before you link up your grateful and feline goodness below - I'd love if you would tweet about our hop. I love that people come along each week and link up here and I really want to invite more and more people to join in. The more linkers we have, the more goodies being shared around the blogosphere. Just click on the pick below to spread the Twittery goodness.

Now it's your turn - link up all things feline or grateful below. I can't wait to see what you'll link up this week :) Don't have a blog but want to join in? Tag your pics on Instagram with the hashtag #caturday to get involved!

Have a great day people!

Wednesday Words of Wisdom

Good Morning, I am supporting another wonderful but detailed project for my day job and have been burning the midnight oils.  So today's post will be short and sweet.  My friend re-shared a great quote this morning on FB so I thought I would pass on these Words of Wisdom.  I hope everyone has a blessed Wednesday (and Saturday hurries up and gets here LOL.)

Showing Some Love Hump Day Blog Hop {Co-host}

This blog hop was born in true "hippie fashion" with the idea of giving, sharing and spreading LOVE in mind. 

There seems to be so much dark in the world (especially on the news) lately so why don't we band together to help spread more of the peace, LOVE & beauty in the world? 

Let's stand together and shine our bright lights of positive energy and overcome all of the darkness!

"We live in the North Country, the Adirondacks of upstate New York. The snow falls steadily from late November sometimes until Easter. The mountains of Vermont are visible from our town and are reflected in the lake. We call our 1880s Victorian "Memory Hotel", so many families have lived here before us, so many memories remain. We invite you to come and stay for awhile, take something away with you... Share the memories......." ~Facia's Mom

You can now join in the fun even if you don't have an Etsy account by joining the Pacific Postcards Team on G+ . Another great way to share our passion for postcards. I have not built a button for this yet so here is the link to our new community. If you know anyone that is in love with postcards and ephemera please pass this link onto them. Go to

The only difference in the memberships is that the latter will be included in shop

interviews, BNRs and postcard related activities. We also plan on having activities for

the general memberships. Hope to see you there soon.

**********************************************************************************
Please remember that we have our very own Postcard Forum for any questions about specific postcards, collecting, creating, basically anything and everything about postcards. Finally found a rare card for your collection? Use the forum to show off that new found treasure.
