Revisiting Antique Rugs

another stroll among the antique rugs
looking for the just the right cats
for my Magdalena style rug
in progress


a long time favorite
of course
but these cats might just need to be
the center of attention
 in a different rug


this guy might do


or these two

another favorite rug
love their little white boots 

did I mention I love antique cat rugs


even if they say Halloween!

*****

my sister and her dh are on there way home 
this morning
they had a great visit with mom
I got a little rest
 they'll be back in July

I can't image how they feel
I hate leaving for work every day

Love finding old cat rugs and the different expressions.
I am glad your sister was here, wish they were closer so you could help each other and take the burden off of you. You go above and beyond, you should not feel guilty. Doing things for yourself, makes you a better caretaker and time to unwind so you can think clearly when you have to make decisions, so take that time for yourself each day.
