“My name is Missy: Cheeky monkey, scribbler, screwball, clutterbug, night owl, nerd and crybaby.

I love belly laughter, books, light cast by birthday candles, and when I die I'd like to come back as a corset. I have 2 beautiful babies, Ashton and Sadie, the little candy apples of my eye. My husband is my oxygen, my children are my vitamins, and friendship is the fuel of my existence.

I live in pigtails, go to work in my pajamas, and swear that chocolate milk runs through my veins. In short, you could sum me up by saying I have a cluttered heart, my head in the clouds, and a crush on every god damn thing that moves. :)

I'm a small town girl who'll probably always be happy staying close to home, but if I were still single and not already blissfully tied down to the husband of my wildest dreams and the disgustingly perfect kids we produced, I'd pack my bags and live like a gypsy.

I really feel conscious every moment of how fast life moves and quick it can end so from the second I get out of bed every morning to the minute I lay my head on the pillow at night I try to do as much living and loving as I can, right down to each sentence I write or way I wear my hair.

I like to consider myself Buddhist, but I believe in God and just about everything else. The simple Buddhist lifestyle and mind frame is my ultimate goal, though as someone with such a scattered mind who acquires new mental and material junk each day, I've a long way to go for that.

I rarely ever buy clothes new and collect everything from vintage squeak toys to bizarre or striking images from magazines for my journals, collages, and insatiable greed for beauty. Besides my family, food and friends are my LIFE.

Nothing beats a giant plate of something scrumptious or a friend to goof around, giggle and gab with - or better yet - both at the same time! I just wish the majority of mine weren't spread across the globe.

I find it impossible to be bored, even without a soul or book around for miles, for I can always climb inside my head and feel content there with the disarray inside. Whether it's dreaming up my next tattoo or just getting lost in how lovely the sun is hitting something, I never run out of things to ponder.

I love people. Watching them, studying them, memorizing their ways and their wonders, but still know how to appreciate being by myself. I've been a loner and a misfit as far back as my mind will take me and kinda love that quiet and the space. Could spend my life in a library, movie theater, darkroom, art store, or anywhere with an ocean view and have far too much of my time and heart tied-up in good TV and favorite celebs.

Still, my strongest addictions are laughing, thinking, growing, and in life, I draw my deepest inspiration from anyone who really understands how lucky they are to be here on this crazy planet. “

Organic Babies!

Hannah and Tim were parents to a baby daughter!

At that point they wanted to protect their vulnerable child, but didn't know what clothes they should buy. They were looking for alternatives to conventional cotton.

Why did they choose organic cotton clothes for their baby?

A baby’s skin is up to 5 times thinner than adult skin, they have higher metabolisms and lower weight making them extremely susceptible to absorbing toxins and more sensitive to chemicals (more information). Organic cotton has none of these harmful chemicles and is produced without the use of pesticides making it a much healthier option, especially for infants and those with skin conditions such as eczema.

And this is why Earthlings was born.

Hannah and Tim started a family run business and now specialize in truly organic baby clothes. Earthlings is an ethically conscious brand producing beautiful and environmentally responsible organic cotton clothing for babies, toddlers and kids. Their designs are made using completely chemical free fabrics and they are committed to trading fairly with all their suppliers throughout the supply chain.

A happy ending!

Becky, their baby daughter is happy, they are happy, kids are happy, Fairtrade is happy, the Earth is happy!

A Pink Velvet Christmas!

One day I fell in love with this girl... Velvet!

I also fell in love with her pink blanket...

So Corinne, Velvet’s mommy decided to make me a pillow!

Velvet and Corinne’s Love Story

“I live in London, Ontario. I have a lovely whippet named Velvet Undergrad III. She was given to me from a breeder at an annual dog show in 1997! I believe I was in the right place at the right time. I truly adore the whippet as a pet. I really wanted to have a greyhound, but when I saw the smaller sized sighthound packaged as a whippet...I just could not resist.

In Feb 2005 my whippet Velvet suffered a (multi-focal) Fibro- Cartilagenous Embolism Stroke. When it happened she fell down stairs and could not even move. Her left side was affected; hemi-paresis. Temporarily though!! We were both traumatized by her inability to get up and walk in the very beginning. I rehabilitated her almost non-stop for the next 7 dys. She was shaky & weak, but standing; taking baby steps by the 5th day. She could walk again by 2 wks time. The veterinarian said that Velvet made an amazing recovery, and that most dog owners would have euthan...oh heck, I can't even say that word!

Velvet is no longer able to run really fast like she was used to, she looses her footing. Plus, she has to think of placing her front left paw down for each step she takes. It's kind of sad in a way because she has lost most of her muscle tone and that is why she looks very thin now. Some people think I do not feed her, however, that is clearly the wrong impression because they do not know her health story.I understand the affects of a stroke and how it makes one weak, whether they be a human or dog. Even as a slightly disabled whippet, I still have her with me to love and take care of. Isn't that just the best?”

Celebrating the world of Teletubbies!

(click to enlarge)

The Teletubbies have been around since 1997! They live in a magical world where they have everything they need. They love each other very much and love to share Big Hugs.

Teletubbies love their house (it is called the tubbytronic superdome, but Teletubbies can't say that). The Teletubbies' house is full of tubbytronic technology making all kinds of funny technological noises. The Teletubbies are "at home" with all the tubbytronic technology in their house and operate it with a joy and confidence.

Just as real children relate to other children the Teletubbies love to watch children playing and their television tummies are a gateway between the two worlds.
