Since I'm also a #hulahooper and #hoopMaker, I thought I would share a bit here 😅
You can find my custom-made, fabric covered #hulahoops at SkratekArtHoops.etsy.com 😊

I mean.. it just never ends.. 😭
I was driving home, and there, on the road, sits this poor little #kitten, starved, tired, resigned..
So kitten no. 5 now, and I have no more rooms left for quarantine 😰
I'm running out of kitten food, dewormers and my nerves.

What I've been up to lately: 4 tiny foster #kittens 🫣
..and one foster half-feral kitty, still hiding behind the couch even after a week.
I also finished 1 custom hoop, so lets call it a productive week.. 🙈

Then my #cats started walking all over it and I had to hide it away.
I'm not sure if it was hunger or art critique.. 🫣🤷😅

My mare is officially colic-free! 💪🥳
Incredibly grateful to our wonderful vet.. 🙏
In these last 2 weeks I've realized there are some upsides to this:
- I'm still so exhausted that I can fall asleep almost any time with no problem
- my mare loves our new walkie tracks
- I appreciate life much more ❤️
