Support Small Business Saturday!

Thanksgiving to Black Friday to Small Business Saturday followed up by Cyber Monday. What a great reason to shop! I hope you had a great Thanksgiving. Mine was quiet and I got allot of stitching done with the cats about me and one on my lap.

If you have registered your card with American Express, any purchase of more than $10 using your AMX card at your favorite needlepoint shop will give you a $10 credit on your next statement! Now how cool is that? It is like shopping for free.

A few cards of thread and a package of needles and you’ve spent $10! easily and at the same time you are supporting the small businesses that are so important to us. I will be supporting all my favorite small businesses in La Jolla this morning….threads, Warwick’s, Adelaide’s and The Cottage.

I am thankful for our small business where we can enjoy some serious retail therapy!

AlleyCat is doing better and has been pretty good with her pills. Last night was a little challenging, but finally! Today she went for a little blood test. Appetite is great and she was very mischevious tonight. The kids and I are going to take a few more days off, you know shopping and decorating and all that stuff takes up allot of time!

and until next time…keep on stitching

Needlepoint, morning noon and evening! what could be better than this? I work on the computer in the daylight hours editing stitch guides and drawing stitches that you will see in the next Needlepoint Now for your stitching pleasure! In between this, there is time for taking pictures of my stitching adventures, Facebook and writing stitch guides for canvas that I am stitching for Needle Deeva, Maggie, Ruth Schmuff and others. Mostly needlepoint you ask? well we will talk about my cats Sylvester and AlleyCat, better known as "the brat". Of course I can't forget Felix who was the love of my life for over 14 years. He broke my heart as he departed for the Rainbow Bridge last year. Oh did I mention baseball?

  1. Regarding Ally Cat’s reluctance to digest pills, I had the same issue with a Bearded Collie who amazingly could eat an entire meal and leave behind the smallest of pills. The solution = a compounding pharmacy can turn most scripts into a liquid. You put a few drops on his food and he’s medicated. They even offer that liquid with a half dozen flavors to choose from. Your vet, of course, will tell you if this is a good alternative. If you don’t have a compounding pet pharmacy in your area, you might check out Pet Health Pharmacy in the Phoenix area. That’s who we used and they shipped the meds overnight. Hope this helps.
