 Outside my window: there is fresh snow 
I'm hearing: fireman jump rope in the living room
I am planning: to finish my Circle Vest today
I am hoping: Al's holiday schedule works out
I am amazed: at these painted rocks. How cool! 
I am reading: The Empress of Dirt's blog.  These are her rocks.

Back when I was a teenager, I had two "pebbles" painted to look like owls. They were just the right size to wear on your collar. (I wonder whatever happened to them?)

Empress of Dirt's rocks are beautiful.

Still trying to figure out how to leave comments from my phone. The rocks inspired me to try again. They are awesome!

One of my students gave me a painted rock over 30 years ago. I wonder where it is now. . .

Your snow is very pretty, but, thank you, I'll take my mid-70's today. We lived in snowy climates for all our lives, so this dry warm air is wonderful to us! Good luck on getting your circle vest done today - that's a pretty pattern and look forward to your finished product. Love the rocks!!

We are supposed to get some of that white stuff tonight--can you believe it?

I love the rocks! I will have to show them to granddaughter Sam because she paints animals on the toes of her tennis shoes. She will love them.

Whoa....snow? Already? What happened to fall? Painted rocks bring back memories. Didn't we all do that back in the 70"s? We called them Pet Rocks.

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...
