How You Know Your Kitten Is Blind

By -
 *Pie didn't discover the Joy of Patches of Sunshine until recently.  (And quite by accident)

*Her facial expression never changes.

*She bumps into windows if you shut them and they were previously open.

*She HEARS to try to catch a bug and to try to catch Da Bird. 

and finally and most diagnostically: 
*She didn't discover that I knit until a few nights ago.  I could knit peacefully with her right next to me for weeks. 
No kitten of mine has ever let me knit peacefully. 
The other night the plastic wire of the circulars touched her ears...that was it. 
She now knows the sound of the needles. 

*Oh and my sister the Vet confirmed she is blind. That should count!  


 She's fearless and she loves to chase the BIG cats.  Beatles finally gave way to the fun of it.  

I have another WIP.  This is 4 for me. 
Unheard of!!  
I'll let you know more about it soon. 

Two things: if you want to follow me on twitter let me know.
Pie has her own facebook page.

Pie is darling! I love that she has found beams of sunshine!! Macy is my sun baby and would be lost without sunshine. We give her 10 minutes in it when the temp is 102° plus.

Yes, I would like to follow you on Twitter. I confess I am not "tuned in to" Twitter. Maybe you will help me get started.

Sweet Pie. I'm so glad she has you. You know if I twittered or facebooked, I'd be following. Just can't take on one more place to keep up with.

I am looking forward to seeing those four projects! This yarn looks yummy! blessings ~ tanna

Pie is adorable, I think, you are learning as much for her as she is from you.

I am not a twitter gal, so I'll follow you here where I always do.
Hugs,
Meredith

What a sweet kitty. She is such an inspiration. Here I was having a pity party and your post made me see how silly I am being.
I took a look for her page on FB but lots of Pie named pages showed up-some I wish I hadn't seen!

Pie is a cutie!

I'd hate to count the number of projects I have in the works - definitely more than four!

I think Pie is so cute, and it must be a interesting adventure to watch her. I think it's pretty funny that she just discovered that you knit. Ha. No more peace for you!

how to tell your cat is not COMPLETELY blind. She plays with a lazer pointer when it is close enough to her face. No smell or noise there!

Zach is a rather smart fellow! ;)

Please send us your Twitter info and Pi's FB. The girls and I want to follow her, and one of these days, I might figure out what Twitter does.

She's so cute, can't wait to meet her! And you're as bad with WIPs and I am with BIPs (books in progress- I finished two on staycation, but I gained three more so I'm currently reading six books, oops)

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...
