This and That

There could be a meeting of pretend friends coming up! Kathryn from TX is coming up for a wedding. She sent me the lovely blue wool yarn in the image you see. She knows my color that is for sure. Wish us luck. We are hoping to meet, eye to eye, needles to needles , heart to heart later next week!

The Kerry Gold car pulled up next to us in the grocery parking lot this week. I do love their cheese. My neice is name Kerry Ann, so I love the cheese even more. What is it about BUGS that makes adverising so darn cute?

Pippa is devoted to the kittens. They are over 2 weeks old now. She is protective of them. No neighbor kids can visit until momma is done and at the shelter....Fireman hasn't gone back into the cattery since last Saturday! Pippa likes me, but I feed her every time I go in the room. She is inhaling food, trying to grow her kittens. Little Bea is still very little. I am rooting for her. If she makes it, I will want a hand in her very special forever home.....

Off to work tonight! My sweet little friend that I follow has a present coming to her. I bought her something to hold onto other than all the wires she is hooked up to. I bought her a soft little elephant on a ring. Prayers for this special baby are always appreciated. She has an uphill battle. Just pray for N. Thanks!

One of our neighbors has a VW Bug painted to look like a ladybug and the taillights look like flowers. LOL Makes me laugh every time I see it.

Cute bug!! Prayers for baby N and Bea.

And Sissy, who stepped on something or got bitten/stung by something on our cut-short walk this morning. Must not be too bad, she kept trying to hunt on our race home, when I just wanted to get her to a clean, dry, well-lit place where I could look at her foot!!

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...
