Thanks for all your love and support. Saying goodbye to Fiona was sad but it felt very right to end her suffering. I took home some fur and let the other kitties smell it. They know, I am certain..thanks again. I think the first time I sent this post through I forgot to attach the images. Sorry! I am still worn out from the days events.


! Our Dairy Queen has opened for the season. My first choice of the new year was a strawberry kiwi artic blast....it came with a head freeze....

My sister's German shepherd had an injury and is doing rehab. Look at that girl do her workout on the ball. She's amazing. Such a smart dog. Here's hoping she is back to doing agility soon.


I finished another cowl. This one is for me. SOft acrylic and warm too. It is blue Jean colored done in Vanna's choice.

I am already knitting another cowl in the Garden Haze Socks That Rock colorway from the Take and Replace Swap.

So Im on a cowl prowl.

Have a Happy Monday!

sorry to read about Fi!!! I think it must be so hard to get so attached and then have to say goodbye.

Our day has started with a goodly amount of snow. Rather unexpected but hopefully won't last the day!

Off to conjure up some breakfast since I will be staying in today!

:( The Knight's aunt and uncle - the ones in the house next door to his parents' - had to let their cocker spaniel go Saturday too. So sad. I hope the other kitties are comforting you.

Sorry to hear about Fiona!

Your Dairy Queen closes? I'm confused!

I'm knitting a cowl as well with yarn from the take and replace swap!

You brought Fiona fur to the other kittyies--what a sweet thing to do. They will miss her as you will. My prayers are with you!

I was on a cowl prowl last year before Christmas and found so many I couldn't believe it. I wanted to knit all of them. I made a bunch of them for the daughter, granddaughters and daughter-in-laws. They wear them even now when the weather is getting warmer.

Okay, I'm a little confused. Are there supposed to be other pictures with this post?

After thinking I would never knit a cowl until I did. I love it.

so sorry to hear of your sweetie.
Good news that the Dairy Queen is open. I used to live next door to one in college, and we would be first in line on opening day, and often with our mittens & hats & snow boots still on....cold in Northern Michigan, but not too cold for a Dairy Queen Blizzard!
Keep up your knitting mojo!

I've never heard of therapy for dogs! Isn't that amazing! Hope your sister's dog heals up soon.

I work out on a ball very similar to that. LOL

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...
