A Precarious Perch

Here's the little climbing toy I made for Fiasco. He seemed to like it at first...

Then it came crashing down and he landed on his face. I hope he didn't get hurt!


Guess I'll have to find some of that sticky stuff that miniaturists use to hold things up. What is that stuff called anyway?

Poor bird. I'm sure he's wondering why he ended up here! I really ruffled his feathers this time!

Caught in the Act!

When I woke up this morning I found Fiasco sitting at his own little computer just typing away!
I'm not happy with the looks of him.

What's up with that pirate hat and the eye patch? He must be up to NO good!

I'll really have to keep an eye on him now!

Something about this makes me very nervous...

A Toy for Fiasco!

I've been working on the construction of a little climbing toy for Fiasco. He is watching me very closely!

He still hasn't spoken to me. Perhaps it's the crooked ladder? I'll try to fix it but I think he will be able to manage it just fine. I'm sure he will like his swing! Maybe this will keep him off the beds?

I'll post a photo when I'm finished.

I want to welcome Carmen as my 50th follower! This is a real milestone for me and I am very thankful! Each one of you brings joy and inspiration into my life! WELCOME!

Hope you have a beautiful weekend!

Blessings, Kathi

Fiasco

No wonder Fiasco hasn't spoken a word to me since he arrived. I just realized that he's Italian! Not from Spain as I thought. I guess he doesn't speak Spanish either? I really don't know how this is going to work?! I don't speak Italian!

He was very interested in those wine glasses. Perhaps this is why?

Fiasco: Noun. Italian for FLASK or BOTTLE. Venetian glass workers operated stiff quality control; any ornamental vessel which wasn't absolutely perfect would be scrapped or sold as a mere wine-bottle. The word spread to include any sort of miserable failure.

I hope this is not a sign of things to come...


Royal Mail from the UK!

My package arrived from Matlock Miniatures this afternoon! I am so excited to show you what I got!
These little deck chairs fold up just like the real ones! I love the yacht! It will be perfect somewhere in my beach house! And yes, here's "Fiasco," the parrot. He flew in too! Isn't he beautiful! "Bienvenido Fiasco!"

He just made himself right at home on one of the chairs. He didn't have much to say. I think he was tired from his long flight. He did give me a look that worries me though. Not sure what that was all about?

I think he is thirsty too. The wine glasses are empty. I'm sure he will have something to say about that!

Guess I'd better go get him something to eat and try to coax him down from the deck and into the house. I don't want him flying off somewhere. I heard several seagulls calling to him but I don't think he speaks English. Looks more like a Spanish speaking bird to me. I sure hope we get along. I don't need any trouble around here! I've got too much work to do!

Blessings, Kathi
