Hooray Blogger Pictures are Back

 When I can't post I get goofy. 
I'm so happy BLogger is back to normal.
This little blog brings me so much more than I can say. 
SO: 
Up first: I'm knitting socks for Fireman this weekend. 
 Zach's cake of choice this year: Tiramisu. 
Oh Three Tarts Bakery you've don't it again. 
I am enjoying birthday cake this weekend.

and
I'm treating dear Rosalyn because we 
adopted her years ago on the day before Halloween.
Rozzy is the sweetest cat you can imagine.
She purrs all the time. 
She loves going to the vet.
Her only fault is feline herpes which 
makes her a sneezy snotty machine. 
Her herpes used to only flair occasionally, 
but in the last year it is always around.
Herpes, the gift that keeps on giving...
Poor baby.


Rosalyn is very slow these days.
She's nearing 17 and I bought her a new radiator pad
today.  She loves a warm radiator. 
All of our cats do! 

Happy Turn the clocks back. 
I'll knit with my extra hour!
How about you?

Yea so good to see you! Love that sock yarn. happy birthday to the boy, his cake looks lovely! Happy Birthday Zack, happy birthing day momma! Poor baby kitty, glad she has a warm radiator.

I *should* log a mile on the treadmill or elliptical but I'll most likely knit as well. If only I could figure out how to knit on the treadmill, hmmm . . . . .

Happy Birthday, Zack!

It always takes me a couple of weeks to adjust to the time change, so I don't look forward to it.

The yarn for Fireman's socks is great - I love those colors together.

Happy Knitting!

Happy Birthday! And the radiator warmers are a wonderful kitty idea. We have plain old vents and our cat Jessie Cat lays on top of one to warm her tummy.

Roz is so pretty! Happy birthday to her.

The time change is my absolutely favorite thing. I love snuggling in earlier in the evening and cooking all those winter comfort foods.

I WILL watch football and knit with my extra hour!

Happy Birthday!

Love Three Tarts. It is where my wedding cake came from.
I think we will get a little cake for our 15th anniversary in the middle of the month from there.

Love the colors of the socks.

Enjoy the rest of the weekend.

Hmmmm we may be using our extra hour to catch up on sleep lost with all the celebrating of baby Rose's birth :)

I like the yarn colors of the sock - looks nice and fall-ish. And that cake looks sooooo yummy!

Pretty kitty! I'm glad she is cozy and happy on her new pad.

Please give all the kitties a kiss from me.

We have a Halloween cat, too! Brought Mocha in from wandering outside that day six years ago. Hope Zach had a great birthday; his cake looks very yummy! Nice socks that look like they are well on their way. Knit on!

What a pretty cat. My kids would kill for radiators like that. We have electric heat, but they are baseboards that don't make good cat shelves. They are stuck with stealing the warm spot on the couch whenever I get up.

Happy birthday to Zack and happy radiator-ing to Rozzy. Gorgeous socks!

Feline herpes? Who knew?!

I love tiramisu too. I think I shall instruct the Knight to find a bakery that will make such for my birthday next year.

I'm struggling with the time change. It will be worse tomorrow after work when I try to get in 2 miles with the dogs before dark and then get to the firehouse for a scouting pub ed by 6:30. I don't do pub eds. I'm a life member.

And I'm a sucker for friends with kids who love fire trucks.

What a sweet kitty perched on that radiator.
Love those socks. That color looks fun to knit.
That cake has made me want to go eat something bad and I've thrown away all the extra Halloween candy. I'll have to raid The Mister's stash.

Is it just me or does Rosalyn match the fireman's socks a bit?

I'm so intrigued by tiramisu cake, but I love tiramisu so it's not surprising huh?

I haven't see a cake like that. It looks really good.

I had a cold for the time change, so I just slept.

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...
