ok.. I guess I can mindlessly type something about me.

I have 1 rottweiler and 2 psychotic kittens. I used to show dogs in conformation and obedience, and trained in tracking and carting but didn't have the time and energy to get into protection work. Oh and I have a betta fish named Lt Shinytail (bf named it).. and I have an amazing man though he doesn't currently live with me, that's a sports nut but we're both Cowboys all the way baby. So.. luckily for me.. we both like blue.. and greys and whites and soft greens.. aka.. beach colors. But I don't like the whole beach cottage look. It's entirely too shiny happy for us. haha. We're both of the grouchy sort.

I also have a huge love of chocolate brown with mauve or dusty blue or turqoise. I don't have that going on in my house... YET.. hehe What I do have is super comfy overstuffed rather old beige furniture. Except for the GIGANTIC Couch of Napping, which is a weird yellow corduroy but the most nap inducing couch you'll ever find. The only way to avoid it is to sacrifice someone else to it. I have a dark wood coffee table that has a old world kind of map inlaid into it and brown metal scrollwork for everything else on it. I have a medium dark round dining table with a slate top and black wrought iron everything else. I have medium brown window shutters, beige carpet, brown bookcases, and about the only thing with any color is my rug, and that is blue and white and black and ... coral? I dunno. I love it, the cats love it, it's rather old but best darned $60 I spent on ebay I tell ya what.

Pretty sure I already said in my bio that basically i like blues, whites, silvers, greys, blacks, purples, etc. that kind of thing. Chocolate brown, cream.. whatever. I don't decorate.. like.. at all. haha. I have 2 pictures up, they're both of horses and they were both gifts from my sister. And the only other thing on my wall is my gun target that's a zombie shot up with all my bullets. hehe. First time shooting souvenir.

Oh.. where was I going with that? I dunno. On my table, when I'm not using it for sewing, or feeding hordes of relatives, is a dark brown bamboo reed mat thing, on which i put a boat shaped dish filled with river rocks and blue ocean scented candles. I have matching placemats with tthat. Well actually the thing I put under the dish is the placemat, I just stole it to be the center table topper

I don't decorate for christmas, mostly because I'm lazy, and also I don't have any room. I would have room if my dog hadn't come up paralyzed over the summer and now he can't live where he used to live in another room downstairs.. he's smack in the corner of my dining room.. aka takes up 1/4 of my dining room. another 1/4 is my sewing area/table. So he is occupying the spot that a tree might fit, assuming I wanted to give the lunatic kittens something to destroy... they would. You know how in movies and whatnot, or maybe you've done it yourself.. I know I have... where you go through a doorway and you run through it, leap, and slap the wall above it, just to see if you can? well.. my cats do that for everything in my house. They race through it, and they Parkour off of everything and literally reach out and slap things that should be too high for them, just to say they did it. I should enter them into some Parkour contests cause man they got moves. It often involves launching off of my head unsuspectingly though.. read "as I'm drifting off to sleep on the couch of napping" .. friggin ninjas. At least the fish is quiet.
