Message in the Snow

By -


In an apparent desperate attempt for comments, Kathy B diligently worked this message into the snow with her bare finger on a 24 degree afternoon in Chciago. It is plea. A plea for help.

Seriously friends, Jen an old friend from a knitgroup I used to visit, left me a message via my email. She says she has been trouble leaving me comments. Have you been having any trouble?

Would you leave me a comment here if you aren't having issues? Please email me at Harpnut@gmail.com if you are having issues.

One other thing, I noticed on my profile that it says my interests are knitting and Afghanastan. I noticed on a few of YOUR profiles that many of us have a strange interest in "Afghanastan" What's going on here? Emily at Yarn Miracle has had someone fiddling with her site as wel. Please help us figure this out. MANY blog thanks.

I don't comment as often as I should . . . but I've never had a problem leaving a comment for you.

As far as I know there hasn't been a problem commenting.
In regards to where you live though go down to the profile area and switch it and then click off to the side for it to hold. I has happened to me often.

Nope, never had a problem commenting that I recall. And the Afghanistan thing -- I found it came up on my own profile. Seems it's the profile default, or something, but it just needs to be reset.

We had a dusting overnight too. I haven't checked my profile settings, maybe I should.

You're making me cold. I'll comment anytime you want, just put your mitten back on!

(Blogger comments were messed up for me for a while - and I am glad they added the URL back to the "nickname" option. How is anyone supposed to know which emily I am without the URL?)

I read this everyday. I too used to go to the knitting group. I haven't seen a post from Alyssa since Nov. and hope all is well. I read hers and Jens too and there hasn't been any from Jen lately either and hope she is okay. I wondetr if they have new sites I don't know about. Hope the post comments go thru now.

Hi. Lucky you, being able to write in the snow. Here it is sunny and dry at the moment - yesterday was storm and rain. LOL! Time for new mittens? (just kidding)

Hi Kathy! Had no prob leaving a comment on the Garden Party Blanket post, but then it took forever to get the comment page to load for this one... go figure. Was about to give up and send an email when it finally loaded. Thing is, I am not sure if it's Blogger or my PC (I have AOL, which has its own issues). In the interim, though, I was able to commnet on other blogs (non-Blogger/Blogspot) with no difficulty.

I checked my profile, also... I don't see any sudden unusual interest in Afghanistan (or any other far-off countries) either. Hope you figure out the problems! Good luck!

No problem here! And I just checked my own profile and nothing about Afghanastan.

However, I did get spammed the other day and had to put word verification on my comments.

Hate Spam! Good luck.

Every Once in a While I Might Post

 Is that vague enough for you?  It has been a too busy complicated Spring.  I had no energy to blog.  All is well now, so I can share some things with you:   1. When I shoot photos of the moon I think of Dear Teresa.  Gone too soon. She took fabulous moon pictures.  2. I did not see one shooting star last night.  I only got up for a few moments around 3 a.m.  The local weather guy said he saw a few quick faint ones.   3. How can I can have one grown child in Oklahoma under flood watch, and One Child in Mexico under hurricane watch?  On the same day.  Tis true.  4. What have I knitted lately?  I am pretty sure I've ripped more than I've knit.  I ripped out a shawl that I was making up.  It was cotton and pretty.  I need to follow a pattern.  5. I was trying to make socks and decided to make mittens instead.  I haven't worked a thumb in a long time.  I may have to frog it too.  So I ha...

Dear buddy nurse and spay neuter pal Linda, came to visit yesterday.  We knitted. We laughed.  We shared books we are reading. She Showed me her scarf.  It looks like a shawl but it is a scarf. Here is her yarn choice. And the( OUCH) price.   It makes her happy to knit.  If Linda's happy I'm happy.  I dont' know the pattern and neither does she.  Her dog literally shredded her pattern.  She was at a point where she had memorized the easy part and she's nearly finished.  So there you go, anyone know the pattern? You are all so sweet about the move and the house. This morning I got my cuppa joe and headed to the porch to write you.  In the distance, my nearest neighbor, whom I can see through some trees.... well one of their teens came out, stretched, peed on their lawn casually, and then laid in his hammock for 5 minutes.  I'm sure he's not the first boy to do this.  I'm not even sure he's the...
