Loved your "one-liners"!! Cute picture of your one eye peeking out of your parka. Must be really cold. Your Kina is lookin' good.

PS: I've moved my blog back to "Blogger": http://www.knitterbeader.blogspot.com/ - where you can see my slow but sure progress on my baby blanket.

It looks so cold, but you look nice and toasty in that cool, furry hood! I like it! Wish I would get my arse out the door for a walk. Maybe today...

My wintery scenery looks just like yours. Brrrr.... I like the photo of you looking through the hood of your parka! Good one! I'm interested to see what the Lady Kina is going to look like. The yarn is such a pretty blue color. You have a happy day too!

Brrrr.....all that is heading our way tonight. We may see our first real snow. I am cooking chicken thighs for the outdoor kitties. I like to fatten them up before a freeze. My new mystery cat is being a pain. He shows up for a meal but then runs away before I can get it to him. He used to eat alongside the others. I think maybe a human has not been so nice to the poor thing. That makes me sad. Hopefully the chicken thighs will earn his trust back. I hate to think of him out there in the cold being hungry.

Your parka looks like those that everyone wore when I was in Japan. Many had reflective tape on the back so there would be more visible when walking.

Winter has settled in for a long stay. . .

I love the parka photo. Love. It.

I like non-fiction, too, but have come across a few good novels lately. As for audiobooks, "To Kill A Mockingbird," read by Sissy Spacek, is outstanding.

It's cold and snowy here too - thank goodness for warm woolies!
And to answer your earlier question about the snowy owls - I'm in Hamilton, Ontario - about 40 minutes south of Toronto. We do get them as they migrate over us occasionally - but apparently there's huge influx this year.

People forgot how to drive. We saw a few accidents yesterday. Today--COLD. Wrapped in a down coat and scarf and velvet jeans and boots and a sweater and more stuff. When I was home I knit an afghan I hope to have done for hubby for Valentine's Day and then I will knit another for my sister who turns 50 come April.

That's quite a different photo of you than the one in July! Brrrrrr.... Good job on taking a walk; I'll bet you were glad to go back inside when you were done. Love the color of your LK-to-be. It's a nice pattern. Stay warm, Kathy!

I've heard how cold it is there and you get a "poor baby" for that! You are made of hardy stock because it would take more than the parka to keep me warm. I go out with the dogs at night in 30 degrees wearing a parka and two blankets wrapped around me, and I'm still cold. Can't wait to see the finished Lady Kina. Beautiful color!

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...

The nearly Thousandth post Contest

(just another baby legging in the image. Using my socks yarns a little differently) I think that blogger may not have correctly counted all the posts I've written. I've been posting since 2004 so I guess it is possible. I'm not going to go back and count them all. It says this is post 987. So we'll go with it. Im having a little contest for the milestone, but I have had writer's block since I decided on the 1000th post contest. So to take the pressure off, we are just going to do this now. :) I get crazy with pressure around events of all kinds. I just do. To enter: Please please please only leave a comment about this post on this post. Im much too flakey to search around differnt posts, afterall there are nearly a thousand (did I mention that number already? sorry....) Leave a comment telling me anything about Lace. If you dn't know anything about Lace, ask someone and share their knowledge. Do tell us who gave you this lace advice, to make it f...

This is a call for knitters to knit a baby blanket no bigger than a cookie sheet. Blankets will be distributed in the NICU where I work. We just don't get many blankets. We need them. Traditional baby colors will do, but we'd love you to branch out a bit. Use up those leftovers if you wish. You could win a lovely prize. All who send a blanket by November 1st, ALL SAINTS DAY, you angels you, will be entered in the drawing. Here are the rules: Blanket must be made of yarn which is washable. Sorry, Hospital rules. It cannot be bigger than a cookie sheet. Smaller is welcome also. That's it. Those are the rules. I'll post the prize by next week. Mail a blanket to me Kathy B if you need my snail mail address,email me at Harpnut@gmail.com
