Thanks Jennifer

Major Jennifer sent me goodies, just because. What a great surprise. I have always wanted to knit with Happy Feet yarn and I love this color way. SHe sent a pattern, the darling card, and some chocolate to boot! It really made my knit week. Thanks again Jennifer. It doesn't seem right to just say thanks to such a wonderful gesture..

It is the workend for me. I hope you all enjoy the Oscars if you are so inclined. I won't be able to watch them. I may bring popcorn to my fellow nurses, however, and slip in a few quotes from my favorite movies during the night....

"Sir you have no call to get snippy with me, I'm just doing my job." Marge Gunderson.....Fargo

Thanks for your kind comments, it is funny how your blogging friends can say just the right words and make you feel so much better. Love your knitting gift. Have a good time at work, hope it is quiet and you can have a few laughs with coworkers.

What a sweet thing! Kudos Major Jen!!

The Oscars are my least favorite TV watching--right up there with watching paint dry! I do love quotes from famous movies though, and the Fargo quote is a good one. If you love Downton Abby as I do their website has a lot of wonderful quotes from Lady Violet, the acid tongued grandmother.

Kathy - I'm so glad you liked your surprise. I think that one of life's real pleasures is an unexpected gift - no matter how small - just to say "thinking of you" - hope you got some rest from your workend!

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...
