<\/a>Mia is all curled up in a ball on a chair that sits next to my desk chair. It is covered in a sunflower patterned blanket and serves no purpose whatsoever, other than to allow Mia to nap next to me!<\/p><\/div>\n
Dan and I have recently been renovating my office so that I now have a cozy space that is a beautiful concoction of gorgeous jewel tones in royal blues, hunter greens, blazing golden hues, and rich burgundies.True to my creative nature, I have taken a plethora of colors and themes that one might not traditionally think would compliment one another and created my own eclectic world that is purr-fectly suited to my unique tastes and personality. I have combined the warmth and beauty of sunflowers (I originally came from Upstate New York where these stunning flowers grew along side the road in a glorious infusion of color and I remain in love with their carefree, yet proud stature) with the wild and untamed pattern of leopard print accessories that is my calling card and trademark. The results \u2013 a room so rich, warm, inviting, and cozy, that you immediately feel a wonderful calm and happiness when you enter the room. I guess you would call it “Sunflower Safari” for a lack of a better style description!<\/p>\n

The cats seem to share my feelings because they took up residence in this room immediately, despite that we still have a few more things to do before it is completed and I have never seen them more relaxed or content. And mind you, my cats already had the art of relaxation and contentment down pat\u2026. While form and function do exist \u2013 I have my computer, my printer, all my file cabinets and bookshelves, etc., that has clearly taken a backseat in this office, as comfort is the name of the game for my fur-babies who think I have created this soothing and peaceful haven for their own personal habitat. It\u2019s funny \u2013 a question was recently asked on facebook by the renowned author and veterinarian, Dr. Marty Becker, as to whether or not people were neglecting their pets by spending too much time on their computers and the Internet. My response to this, as evidenced by the pictures I have provided of my cats,\u00a0is the proverbial “If the mountain won’t come to Muhammad, Muhammad must go to the mountain.” In my case, seven highly loving and devoted furry little Muhammad’s! And I do mean all seven, all at once!<\/p>\n
