Alzheimers - support
We all know what Alzheimer's is and know at least by reputation what it does. A dear lady, Cornelia Rutherford, has put together a team for the September 12 Alzheimer's Association Memory Walk in Fredericksburg and she needs sponsors. Cornie is the CEO of Out of the Woodwork Productions, the not-for-profit that owns and runs the Virginia ( Read more... ) -
Just in case I fat-fingered anything
Just did a bit of clean-up, mainly groups and such, but if I inadvertently clipped anyone, tell me. (I checked and re-checked but I'm still groggy after 12 hours in bed and R's taking a rare sick day so odds are I'm even less sharp than usual.) -
To help a talented friend
Heard from a friend who's a talented fiber artist (felting, rug weaving) -- she's got a store on Etsy so take a moment to check her out. Hey, cat people!! Her felted wool balls, with or without jingles, make excellent cat toys. -
Heads-up - dangerous pet toy
For the animal lovers on my flist that aren't also on Kimber's flist, please be aware of this dangerous pet toy and Four Paws' lack of appropriate response (imnsho) so far. It makes me crazy that FP is telling people that they've recalled the product and that they've advised vendors to remove it from their shelves when a simple check shows that ( Read more... ) -
Quick LJ Idol post
It's down to the final vote now. I've enjoyed the entries for all three of these from Topic 0 onward and have never been surprised to see them continue on to the next round.

And now for a 'real' post
Friends, if you happen to have a flexible schedule and are comfortable traveling with animals you don't know (crating's usually okay), please consider keeping an eye on driveforlife. From the community's userinfo: This community was started after a realization that there really was no network in place on LiveJournal for those that may wish to help transport ( Read more... ) -
Huzzah!
It's here! It's here! VARF opens this weekend! I have a handful of passes available so if you want a cheap excuse to spend a day around great music, lots of humor (some of it even intentional!), and interesting vendors, let me know. And did I mention it's at a vineyard? (Chite, are you and ladyozma still thinking of coming down?) -
Memo to me and all that
The following was also posted as a comment to wyrdwriter earlier today. Am doing it as an entry as well, both as a 'memo to me' and just because the Bimbo Boy amused the fire out of me this morning:
I have a cat toy, a bat with floppy wings, hanging in the doorway to the computer room on a nice, new (hence tres bouncy) elastic cord. Masque ignores it but ( Read more... ) -
'Cause I was asked
Because I was asked, here are the rest of the fencing masks I've painted on commission. I'm now working on an Anubis-based design for the next one, hopefully we'll settle on the working image in the next few days.
