Happy Valentine's Day!

Hello to  Everyone, I hope things are good for you and your day is going well. 
I've manage to put the parasite treatment on Teallach, I've got to psych myself up to do it, and I've got washing out as it's not a bad day, so all in all my day is going fine.  Tomorrow, it's the turn of the wormy treatment for puss...oh he hates it and I think hates me for doing it to him.  The joys of having pets lol.

Thank you all for your lovely comments on my last card and the well wishes for our Jim, all so much appreciated.

Well, Valentine's Day, and I've made a card for Alistair;
I took a little inspiration from a card I'd spied on Pinterest. I've had the tiny envelope and the cushioned hearts for the longest time and so pleased to have a chance to use them. SU embossing folder, Xcut heart die and an Inkylicious sentiment. Glad to say he love it.

I bought a M&S Dine in for 2 Valentine meal for tonight, and the best bit is that I don't have to cook.

Well, that's me for now, a quiet day at home, although I've got someone coming to measure the living room windows for slatted blinds, Teallach has ripped the vertical ones and what a mess he's made of them. Cuillin too had a go at them years ago, but I managed to sew the damaged vein, boy was that tough going, so the time had come to renew them and I think wooden blinds will be cat proof.  
So cheerio for now and see you soon,
