We have a hard fast rule--no politics or religion at family gatherings.

I feel the same about diaper covers. I don't get it!

I'm for Trick or Treating but against later than 9:00!! I really hate it when teenagers show up at 10:30.

I'm with you, I don't knit diaper covers. I'm also not crazy about any of the blow up lawn decorations.
And I definitely all for hand knit socks!

Inflated lawn decorations are simply ridiculous - a waste of electricity.

I'm for metal knitting needles and against bamboo.
I'm for cell phones but against talking on them in public places.
I'm for having pets and against those who allow them to roam freely.

We'll second your walks and rain.

I'm for family-style dinners at the firehouse, especially when a former member or two is home for a visit, but not against much of anything this fine afternoon!

I am ALL for Halloween treats, but not inflatable giant pumpkins. All for the great outdoors, but not for 95 degree days and 0 degree nights. I'm all for cooking, but but not cleaning up.

I so agree about circular needles and socks.... What's your favorite kitty food..Beatles, that is? As for walking in the rain...we'd have to move not to do it, but at least you don't have to shovel rain. BTW, love that latest Beatles photo. What a little cutie!

We're opposites on needle preferences! I like aluminum so that I can knit really fast.

I'm for reading novels but against electronic books.
I'm for cooking delicious meals but against washing dishes.
(This activity is way too fun!)

 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...
