Santa Was Very Very GOod

By -
 Pie discovered the Joys of the Holiday wrapping paper. 
Give a cat a piece of paper and they are amused for a very long time.   It's in their genes...
 Santa delivered sock yarn from Knitpicks that is begging to be cast on today ….
We are blessed to have 3 great guitarists in our family.
Zach, cousin Kevin, and Uncle Ken gave us the gift of Holiday music on Christmas eve.  

Al is on her way home this very minute! 
She worked the last 9 days in a row..
When you sign up for Nurse life 
you work the holidays 
and Santa is very very good to you. :) 

Was Santa good to you?

OOH what is that colorway? It reminds me of Dashing Dachs goldfish. I said ooh out loud.

Christmas was beautiful with lovely gifts! And quiet time!

I have to say it was a good Christmas all around. Now I need to back away from the cookies so I can enjoy the new year.
My daughter's not a nurse but she has to work holidays and weekends so I know how precious those stolen minutes with family can be. Enjoy!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, Kathy B! Pie is growing so quickly these days. Evidence you are a wonderful caretaker to a very special kitty. I know what you mean about yarn demanding to be cast on. I got a new shipment in and it is calling my name although I have 2 pairs of socks in progress and a closet full of yarn, but the new stuff speak louder than the muffled comments of the closet yarn.

Enjoy Al's visit.

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...
