So we have a picture heavy post today.
Flowers thanks to the Chicago Botanic Gardens
cotton hats for Haiti thanks to Kathy C. Our little knit group committed to making more yesterday.
FO! Another Life is Good Shawlette.
I'm going to cast on for another Life is Good Today with Lorna's Laces in a color way I'd call Huckleberries. I'm going to bathe 4 new foster kittens today that are a bit shy.... I'm going to run off to spay neuter clinic now.... I'm going to have my neighbors for fried fish tonight... I'm going to fit in a good nap this afternoon.. I'm going to thoroughly enjoy the 80 degree weather and storms today. I think my day will be full of wonder and fun. How about you? Any wonder? Any fun?

Yes! I am leaving shortly to go to the "big city" with a friend for shopping, a meal out, and STARBUCK'S. That is such a treat for us "country" folks who do not have a coffee shop anywhere near us. Have a wonderful day with all of your errands to run. Enjoy the fish tonight... YUMMO!

hmmm - the only wonder I can think of is not on the positive side so I'll refrain from sharing.

Those hats are lovely. and so is the shawl. g

Wow! I enjoyed reading about your fun day Kathyb and about the commenters fun for the day ahead, because my day is looking dull, dull, dull. I'm already yawning and it isn't noon yet. Maybe fun tomorrow!!

Sounds like a great day. We are headed towards the 90's already. Another great summer in the scorching South.

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...
