I have a mild crush on your mug :) Love the knitting (as always) and winter kisses from Frodo are simply the bestest ever over here.

All of the above! Wisdom in a word and very Christmas-y. I especially like the hat and mittens and the Gnome. I went out in a car with frosted windows yesterday. For some reason one of my favorite things is sitting in the car while the windows defrost and the car warms up. There is always that "awwwww" moment. Heated seats help A LOT!!

Appreciation would be my word for all my unwarranted blessings. God is good!

Love the striping on the tam and mittens. I baked cookies yesterday. Now, I need to find the duct tape!

Life is wonderful and simple, right! I was going to shop for ingredients and make candy and cookies today. But after shopping at 2 big grocery stores for ingredients, I decided that was enough for one day. So have spent the rest of the day cleaning off my desk, going to knitting meetup tonight, then bake and make tomorrow!

Good stuff Kathy. I'm obsessive with the cookies right now. Baking them, that is. I'm also really into gnomes. My mother doesn't think they are cute, but I think I will continue to love her ;)

I haven't made a single cookie yet but I've been tearing into the fruitcake on a regular basis.

I am so impressed your duct taped cookies are still safe, Kathy! Bravo for your self-control! xx

On the cookie thing- your self control must be enormous! I would have chewed through the tape by now! 🍪🎅🎄🎁

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...
