Weekend Wrap Up

We had a whirlwind of a weekend! Yeah, we relaxed a bit...

But we worked a bit too. Well, at least I did. Isabella continued relaxing. Mommy finally felt crafty for the first time in months so of course I helped...

She's also does workouts from her personal trainer but of course I have to snoopervise. Especially when she's on the evil foam roller...

Yesterday it was rainy and cold with temps in the 50s. I was freezing my patooty off until Mommy turned the furnace on so I could warm it up...

Ah, yes, it felt good...

The warm, sunny weather returns today so I'll make sure to relax a bit in a sunpuddle or two.

How was your weekend?

Hope you enjoy a sunpuddle today too!

Boring with a Capital B

Mommy doesn't have time to make beady goodies during tax season but that doesn't stop her from looking for more beady stuffs. Thing is, I happened to be out of bed so she took my spot to look through the beady catalog. To hurry her up I decided to help her look...

Oh my Cod. Looking through a catalog filled with pictures of beady things is like watching paint dry. Please let there be a birdie or two out the window to keep me awake...

How many pages are in this stinkin' catalog? 

I don't mind helping make beady goodies but looking at pictures of beads is completely mind numbing. That's the last time I waste nap time helping her look for beady stuffs!

Our weeks are busier than ever it seems so we apologize for not visiting as often as we should. We hope all is going well in your neck of the woods!

Have a great weekend!

Weekend Wrap Up

Welcome to the last week of February! Weekends are short this time of year and they're rainy too. We made the most of the rare sunpuddles on Sadieday...

There were zero sunpuddles yesterday so for the first time this tax season, Mommy decided to get crafty. Of course that meant I had to snoopervise...

We were pleased with how our beady goodies turned out...

They're topless because we're out of earwires but they'll be complete soon. I'm just glad she finally made something. It helps her relax and with seven weeks of tax season left, everyone is happy when Mommy is relaxed. Trust me.

How was your weekend!

Hope you have a great day!

Weekend Wrap Up

We hope you had a great weekend! I was on bead duty so helped Mommy make a kitty necklace...

She accused me of sleeping on the job but I didn't. I snoopervised her plus watched for birdies...

Multitasking is my specialty.  Looking at the camera, however, is not...

Anyway, the kitty necklace turned out really cute...

She's keeping that one and got a request to make a shorter one. She has to get more kitty beads though because our cat mom friends are asking about them! Probably because I helped with it.

What did you do this weekend?

Happy October to you!

Finally Friday

We're glad it's Friday but more than that, we're glad it's September 15th. It may sound like a normal day but for us CPA cats it's the tax deadline for business returns so we spent a lot of time in the office this week...

It was grueling let me tell ya. After we finished working yesterday, somemommy got out her newest stash of beads...

Beading relaxes her but since she had zero mojo there wasn't much relaxing happening. Well, except for one of us...

Eventually she came up with these earrings...

Thank Cod they were Tortie approved...

One more tax deadline next month and the 2016 tax season will finally come to an end. We're not even going to think about the 2017 tax season just around the corner. Nope. Not gonna. Uh uh. *sigh*

We plan on doing a whole lot of nothing this weekend, what are your plans?

Happy weekend!

Angel and Isabella

Finally Friday

It's the last Friday in July! Tax season will be here before we know it! I think summer is going so fast because we're working so hard. As soon as we're done working on taxes, I have to snoopervise the making of beady goodies...

Somemommy pointed out that I was paying more attention to the birdies than beadies. As if. Anyway, if that's what she thinks, I'll snoopervise from a much closer vantage point...

Of course she complained that I was too close. Okay, how about I snoopervise from here?

We finally got the beady goodies made. They would've been done much quicker if she hadn't stopped to complain so much but whatever. After I did my snoopervising duties, Isabella had the easy job of modeling...

It took just a few shots to get that one. It helps that she moves at a snail's pace so her poses last an eternity. She really is a Tortie slug. 

We're hoping to relax this last weekend in July. August is a busy month for us with birthdays, an anniversary, noisy strangers on the deck, many thousands of people coming to our town to view the solar eclipse and even a visitor coming to our house the end of the month. Our sporadic posting will be even more so but we'll pop in from time to time. 

Do you have plans for the weekend? Any big events happening for you in August?

Hope you have a wonderful end to July!

Weekend Wrap Up

Our weekend technically isn't over until Wednesday but we're wrapping up our weekend so far. We've had glorious weather - mid 70s, open windows and sunpuddles! Of course that meant Mommy and Daddy went to the coast on Saturday. She said it was beautiful over there with lots of tourists and lots of seals hanging out on the rocks...

Yesterday I helped make beady goodies...

I also napped. I deserved it. I work hard. 

How was your weekend?

Hope your weekend is off to a great start!

Beady Helper

One of our BeadedTail customers purchased some beads online that she had sent directly to us to make earrings. That's a lot of pressure since she hasn't even seen the beads in person yet but thank Cod I was on the bead mat and ready to help...

We sent ideas to the customer for her and then we made these...

And these...

The customer was happy with how they turned out. We are too. Mommy couldn't have done it without me... 

It's a tough job being beady but somekitty's got to do it!

Have a beady kind of day!

Angel

Snoopervising

Somemommy thought she'd make beady goodies while I was napping. Thank Cod I woke up before anything was made...

She should know by now that an inspection must be done first...

Nothing gets by me...

Inspection complete. You may proceed Mommy...

What would she do without me? It's a tough job being a snoopervisor but somekitty's got to do it!

Did you do anything exciting this weekend?

Hope you have a fabulous day!

Weekend Wrap Up

After days of rain, we finally had a sunny weekend! We enjoyed the sunpuddles and even some window whiffs...

It wasn't all rest and relaxation though. I helped Mommy finish up a kitty necklace...

Later I even helped her take pics of the necklace and list it in our shop. There's no rest for the furry around here that's for sure. It's a tough job but somekitty's got to do it!

How was your weekend?

Happy Monday!

Santa's Helper

We had a whirlwind weekend doing last minute Christmas stuff to get in the mail today. Mommy was busy making handmade presents - some beady, some involving glue! For some reason I didn't get to help with the glue projects but I did get to help with the beady ones...

Hey, aren't these supposed to be a surprise?

I better make sure they remain a surprise so I'll just lay right here...

It's a tough job being Santa's helper but somekitty's got to do it!

What did you do this weekend?

Have a great day!

Working Holiday?

Since it's Labor Day weekend, I thought that meant time off from laboring but somemommy had a different idea. She decided to make beady goodies which of course meant she needed me to help pick out the beads...

Then I helped her come up with ideas. Normally she can only handle a few ideas but this time I gave her a lot of ideas. They're laid out because being a right brain challenged accountant, she has to know where she's going before she starts...

Since I can't work the tools, she took it from there while I went on a well deserved break. She ended up tweaking a few but don't worry, they all got my approval first...

Speaking of tweaking, she tweaked her back doing yard work the day before so she couldn't sit long enough to finish making them all. That was fine with me because all her complaining about her back was disturbing my break time with my sisfur...

I'm declaring today a no Labor Day and we're all taking a well deserved break!

Hope you get a break today too!

Happy Labor Day!

Behind the Scenes

It's no secret that we're the inspiration as well as the quality inspectors behind our BeadedTail beady goodies...

But when it comes to being the model, well...

I'm not interested in that type of work at all...

Apparently someTortie isn't either...

I am interested in Birdie TV though...

That's a glimpse of what happens behind the scenes around here. It's a tough job but somekitty's got to do it!

Hope you have a relaxing Labor Day weekend!

Angel

Tortie Tuesday

It's no secret that I'm a behind the scenes helper on Mommy's beady goodies but sometimes she says I'm a distraction...

Yeah, I don't get it either.

Hope you're appreciated this Tortie Tuesday!

Weekend Wrap Up

We're in the middle of a heat wave causing the Birdie Network to be on the fritz so we had to find other things to do this weekend. Since we're behind on making beady goodies, I helped Mommy put together some earring ideas...

Of course she didn't appreciate my help so I was relegated to snoopervising.
You're seriously going to put those colors together Mommy?

After all that hard work, a well deserved break was in order...

Later I expect a well deserved treat too!

How was your weekend?

Enjoy your day!
