A Re-Found Dress And A Puma

One of those days when I had nothing to wear, I re-discovered this light blue one with small, white polkadots. I made it a few years ago, after a vintage pattern from the 50s, and since I've only worn it about two times since then, I thought it was a good idea to let it have a day out in the sun - or in the office... - again! Something else I discovered when coming back home from my funeral-weekend, was that a litter box had been placed in the bathroom. And where there's a litter box, there is usually a CAT! So I looked around in the apartment, and found this: 

This is Fanny's sister's cat Puma. She's staying with us for a few days, and since I've met her before, I'm glad she's back! 

As I'm a crazy cat lady, I have met many cats in my life. But Puma is seriously the cuddliest one I have ever come in contact with! Since she feels I like her, she likes me too. As soon as I look at her, she starts purring, and she follows me around the apartment wherever I go. In the picture above she's "helping" me editing photos for a blog post.

Here she's guarding my precious vintage clothes! When she's not "working" she usually just tries to look as cute as possible - to get as many cuddles as possible...

If I haven't payed her enough attention - for about two seconds - she usually lies down on the floor, on her back, to show me how adorable she is...

Puma is also very interested in lizards. Here she's examining Tyra, one of Fanny's two leopard geckos. Right now though, she's lying beside my computer - purring like an engine. So I guess I'd better give her what she wants - my full attention! I hope she lets me sleep tonight though. Last night she was snoring like a human being...

...Moving In

So, yesterday I told you that I finally was able to move away from my parent's house, and back to my beloved Stockholm, where I will rent a room in my best friend's apartment.

My new landlord and landlady had prepared my room for me. They even repainted the walls, and Fanny had put jasmine flowers on my nightstand! The room was already furnished, so the only "furniture" I brought was my big mirror, and the lamp in the picture above which I had just found in a thrift store. It matches my red curtains perfectly, and when it's dark it gives off a very cosy, red light!

Morris quickly found his place in my bed...

...and Milfred moved into my lingerie drawer!

I'm also sharing the house with Fanny's two leopard geckos - Tyra (skinny tail) and Lizzie (fat tail)...

...and their food. Mmmmm, yummy...

We celebrated my arrival with sushi, Dawn of the Dead, and champagne. Of course Milfred had to taste some too. Goddamn alcoholic mink!!!

The only sad part of the day was that my grandmother decided to die around an hour after I had arrived to my new den, so I guess you could say we both moved that day... She became almost 96 years old, and was a really cool, strong lady. Now she's probably dancing around in the heavenly ballroom, young and dressed in a wonderful 40s gown! Love you grandma! See you in the future!
