No explanation needed!

Some of the things that I love!!!

I love things that are unique and that make me smile!

This I got from my boyfriend about 6 years ago.

I love animals and it holds coats!!!!

This I saw in a second hand shop and thought was just to cute!

 (Plus it reminds me of me cats and fish bowls, and shows that they are not the only ones who like them)

I got this about 15 years ago.

First time I saw this and fell in love with it when I was about 13 years old.

I was raised by my grandparents and my grandmother brought it home one day.

When she passed my grandfather remembered how much I loved this picture and he gave it to me.

This is one I received from my mother about 18 years ago, 

we both had a love of animals, and big cats. 

Can't remember how I got this one but I have had it over 15 years.

Who doesn't like kittens sleeping. 

Now these two are paintings done by a woman years ago,

they were given to me by her children when the woman's husband died almost 20 years ago.

Still have there name in my files.  If I ever parted with them or died I would like them to go back to her family if they want them.  There was a third but my ex had it and he died before I was able to get it back.

I still hope to find it and put it back with these.

Been offered money for both but the tiger everyone who sees it wants it.  ;)

It is about 3 feet by 3 feet.

This one makes me think of more peaceful times.

The third one was of a pair of lions, male and female.

This one second hand store again!

Had it is my bathroom.

When I decide to convert dining room into my computer/ craft room,

I decided I wanted to put it above my aquarium  

Will do it when I find away to make sure it doesn't fall.

;)

 And yes they are Webkins above it, I have over 20, sorry lost count and I have at least 7 to register still. 

(they are such cute stuffed animals and the online games are great for kids)

This cat is needle point I received from a friend for Christmas about 6 years ago.

 This my cousin in Arizona made and gave to me.

This first is light behind it.

and without light.

This I also got from my cousin, bought I believe she bought here from a store that sold art like this.

 This was my best friend's mother's, 

when she passed (about 20 years ago) it was given to me to remember her, she knew I loved cats.

 As you can see my tastes very!

That is true about book, movies and music.

I do have one collection to show you one day,

It is a collection of book marks.

To me they are a perfect gift.  When some goes out of the country or even another town, bookmarks are a nice Souvenir, not expensive and doesn't take up a lot of room.

;~)

Well hope you like the things I love! 

What kind of things do you love?

==============================

Update:  I made a mistake on the last one,  I got it from a different best friend, (I will call this one my new best friend) but it was about 3 yrs ago.  The piece I was Thinking about that I received was of a cat figurine also but you place on a bowl or ledge (I like fish bowl) so it looks like it is watching the fish.  I do not get to see this best friend (I will call her my old best friend but always my best friend) very often because she moved away a few years ago.

Charity Ball for Jack

I saw a story on the news, CHCH Hamilton, that I would like to share.  

It is about a little boy, 7 months old, don't worry it is a good story. 

Before he was born it was discovered he had Congenital Heart Defect (CHD) called Transposition of the Great Arteries (d-TGA).  (the "great" arteries are reversed in their origins from the heart, with the aorta connected to the right ventricle, and the pulmonary artery connected to the left ventricle-exactly the opposite of the normal heart's anatomy)  Here is the address to the article I found on-line:  

 Gives Back Fundraiser in Honour of Jack White

When he was born he had to have to surgery's to correct this problem.  Happy to say that to date all has worked out and he is a normal 7 month old baby.  Everything seems to be great, his heart is normal and it looks like all that remains are the scars from the surgery.  I am so happy for him and his parents plus 2 older brothers. 

Here is the address for the video I saw on CHCH news:  The heart of a fighter I do not know how to post the video's from this site.  

The reason I put this here is two fold, one to share this good news that a child has been saved and two that there is a Charity Ball called Jack Gives Back in Hamilton at the Renaissance Hall on February 9, 2013.   Here are the details:
