Happy Lucky Friday the 13th

By -
 There, you have 2 black cats bringing you an amazing lucky Friday the 13th.  The moon was magnificent last night and will be even better at FULL tonight. 

This is all I could get from Bea and Pie this morning. They are so happy to be out on the porch again.  Pie remains half the size of Beatles.  She runs around the house/porch  for 3/4 of the day.  She's hyper kitty.  She and Beatles were on high alert last night for moths at the screen.  I have to let a few in; I believe they should catch SOMETHING once a day.  
Rozzy is exceptionally good. I think the shave and bath made her a new girl.  Tank is just his big old cranky/fun self.  

This is the closest I'm getting to an airstream trailer this year. 
It's a 31 change purse that I bought from a work friend's on line party.  Now maybe the change won't fall to the bottom of my purse. 

Now I'll confess to you:  that I started Trap number 4 last night.
I'm knitting down the stash with this pattern.   
We should change this blogs name to
Trapcrastic! 

I love the VonTrapps too.  
Liesl VonTrapp was my favorite. 

Have you ever set up a Fly trap?
what a contraption!
Flies will actually land on the sticky tape and die. 

You could conclude or exTRAPolate
that I love the Trap pattern in stockinette.

 And my favorite game as a kid: 
Mousetrap.  

 That's all the fun for today.  Comments anyone?

Cute little kitties. Someone at work said that Friday the 13th and a Full Moon will not occur again for 30 years or so. I LOVE the change purse. Where can I get one (or two to give one to a friend)? Happy weekend!

I don't buy into the Friday the 13th hype, but I'm sure your two black beauties would bring me luck if hyphen crossed my path.

I'm trying to knit from my stash, too. I WILL not purchase any new yarn unless it really calls my name - an unrealistic goal because ALL yarn knows my name! ;o)

Love the kitties picture. Yes, I read the full moon on Fri the 13th won't happen again until 2049.

I'm trying (once in a while) to knit from my stash, but it's terribly hard to do when you gasp at a pattern you want and then gasp at some yarn to knit it! LOL

The kitties look ready for action; I don't think they felt they had a lot of time for a photo shoot. They are cuties!

I'm knitting with stash yarn only at the moment. And I'm vowing to continue working on the stash! It's best if I don't even look at a yarn shop!

I bring moths in after taking the dogs out at night so the cats can have some fun; we fully understand here.

I love the shape of the Trap. It is a bit TRAPezoidal and enTRAPs me with its form. I can see why one would want to knit it again and again!

Two sweet kitties. They are so shiny black and lively. I have never been bothered by black cats, Friday the 13th, or full moons but my Mom would have been in hiding today.

Hehe, you're a riot Kathy. I love finding a project you want to knit over and over again. My favorite VonTrapp was Kurt. Maybe it was the Lederhosen and the insatiable appetite.

Kitties are cute. I love that Pie is so hyper.

I loved mousetrap, too. Remember when you would get it all set up and someone would bump the board and knock it all down before the end of the game! I love your trap, I am thinking about stockinette, and Happy Friday the 13, not another one with a full moon until 2049!
Hugs,
Meredith

We almost MISSED the full moon last night. It was very, VERY cloudy until around 10 ---- then the moon peeked through for a little while.

I just LOVE a full moon.

Cute! I need a coin purse. I love my Lilly P tech wallet, but it has NO coinage accommodations at all.

Next time you're here, let's have a Sound of Music slumber party! Do you watch the Julie Andrews version or the Marion Martin? I prefer to WATCH Julie and LISTEN to Marion. I haven't watched the Carrie Underwood version. I think tonight's the night!

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 their boy.  Insufficient inf

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 have been knitting, but not making things.  6. MY gardens are growing.  I have 3 main areas I
