I was going to blog. Really, I was. When I sat down with my laptop. my mind went blank. And what was I going to talk about? I’m still not certain. It was the first day of Standard TIme so I was up an hour earlier. I had time for a nice breakfast, a walk, some reading, some knitting and a long hot shower before leaving for knitting group. I still left early. I needed gas and I wanted to stop at Staples to get a book spiralled. Is that a word? I don’t know anymore. There are so many new ones out there. The stop at Staples was a waste of my time. They said it would be about an hour before they could help me and that I could leave my book. I said, “No thanks. I’ll be back in two weeks.” They said they were always very busy on the weekend. This is a lie because I always come on Sundays before my group starts. And the job they were doing? It seemed to be watching the customer operate one of the big machines. Huh?
Group, as usual, was a lot of fun. I wore my new socks. I love them. They are so me. Betty started talking about my socks so I flipped my clogs off and pointed to my feet. She started laughing. She didn’t realize that I was wearing them. She’s one of those people who you want to make laugh just to hear her.
Maria made NO progress on the fringe of her shawl. She kept complaining that it didn’t look right. She kept losing the yarn overs. I hope I got her on the right track. I told her she can’t do anything new until she finishes the fringe. Fat chance of that happening. She’s all ready planning her next shawl and she has the yarn for it. I really like the pattern she found. Maybe I’ll do it, too.
At this point I was going to show you what I have started. Unfortunately, my laptop and my camera are not on speaking terms with each other today. This has happened before, but I do not currently feel like fixing it. But there is always cat pictures.
This is Miss Kitty. She is a Certified Bed Cat. She will sleep with you every night when you visit my girlfriend in Bismarck. And, believe me, you need at least one of these when you go there.
And here’s Flo. She missed my lap so much while I was gone. She’s been trying very hard to make up for it.
And here’s Cora enjoying the fire. She didn’t even realize that I was gone.
