Never too late to teach an old cat new tricks.

I am not sure, but I think my cats are rubbing off on me. It must be that. They certainly aren't about to be influenced BY me, so what else could it be.
Maybe what I am learning from them isn't a bad thing.
I am beginning to be more 'mindful' of what I do, even the mundane.

I like to position myself in the sunniest window, and find myself some days following the sun around the house.

I am learning to love myself enough not to beat myself up over a 20 extra pounds.

I am learning to be calm, learning to let life unfold.

Who knew that four stray cats could teach me so much??

But lest you think that all the time I spend at the studio is a lark, there is a lot of drudge work to do before the weaving begins. Winding the warp, threading the heddles, sleying the reed, then searching out colors and cutting lots of fabric. I immerse myself in the task at hand. I accept it as necessary preparation for the end result, which is where I find my mojo.
