Happy News

Do you see the kittens?  I was asked to foster a new cat mom,  today.  Sadly, I cannot.  I was also asked to foster 4 newborn kittens and their momma, today.   Spring must be coming because it is clearly…..kitten season. 
Anyone out there want to foster?   It is not difficult and it is a joyful process.  It does take time and laundry and litter and food.  Let me know.  We'd love to have you.  I trust my knit pretend friends in the area, and I'd highly recommend you.

This old sea dog made me laugh on vacation.  The man in the shot was about 200 years old..yet he enjoyed a day on the pier with his ted hose  on.  Fireman had something not nice to say about the dog sniffing his leg….once a fireman always a fireman. 

 So in a world of bad news these days, lost planes, highway tragedies, and blown up buildings….we have a few little things to make us smile.  

 I have good knit news too but nothing to show for it today..

 Keep looking for the good…it is out there!

Funny you should mention the good in life today ---- I was driving down the road and I decided that the "devilments in life) were NOT going to get me down!

March always depresses me. I need some happy news. Maybe some grandbaby hugs this weekend will do it. Thinking of kittens makes me happy but thinking of those without homes doesn't.

Ok, I guess I am on the same level as the Fireman, because that is the first thing I thought of when I saw that dog sniffing that mans leg! So love that he was "200 years old"....too funny. Having lived in Florida most of my life (sadly not now) I use to see 200 year olds all the time, so I truly understand what you are saying. :)

Oh I can't wait to see your lovely knitting!

Wishing you a most lovely day. :)

Yes, the good is out there and hopefully, more people will find it. In order for mankind to survive and to thrive, we must learn to get along with each other.

Baby kitties... too much to resist! I do wish I lived close enough to you to foster some little ones.

And then there's the sea dog. Ha, ha, ha! Must have been quite a sight. Thanks for the laugh. And I couldn't agree more...that there's lots of good happening "out there," and it's heart warming to hear those stories!!They make my day.

There is so much good in life--like sweet little kittens and puppies who hit me on the leg with a toy, meaning "Come play with me." How can anything be wrong in a world with such love!

When I was able to foster, I cried every time I had to return them, but loved it so much it was worth it! Great post - thanks for sharing!

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...
