Elvis is fine. As a matter of fact, he is quite perky. He went to the vet yesterday to get a steroid shot. He even went outside today to go potty.
Here he is helping himself to some dog food. He heard it’s good for his teeth.
You got a problem with that?
The vet said to bring him in and a technician would give him a shot. I wound up staying longer than I had planned. It seemed they were down two people and the girl at the front desk didn’t know shit from shinola. Elvis was a good boy and it only cost ten dollars so I can’t complain.
I paid my bills and ordered the rest of my Christmas presents. There were no phone calls, no stamps and no driving. Don’t you just love technology?
Just check out the socks! Speaking of socks, only five inches left on my red socks.
I’ve been ‘kinda’ busy today. I tried to put a handle on the clutter, but it didn’t work out very well. So, I took a shower and washed my hair. Everything looked fine after that. We went food shopping. They had green bananas and naval oranges. Life is good.
I finished the heel on my second red sock and started the decreases. When I picked up along the sides, I had 21 stitches on one side and 19 on the other so I had play with it a little. See the square needles. They feel odd at first, but they work very well, especially on k2tog. I made the first sock using round needles and there is no difference in size. I just wish there were six instead of the usual five needles. I like to have six when I make socks and sometimes seven.
And I’m happy to be home.
It went fairly well. There are a couple of things I still need to get, but I know what they are. Jenn is pretty well set, also. I will be heading back tomorrow.
I’m going back to Reisterstown for a few days. Jenn and I are going Christmas shopping. It’s been raining all day which doesn’t thrill me at all. See You.
I finished it last night. I think it turned out well.
We had frost this morning. The geese didn’t seem to mind. They still managed to eat the neighbors grass seed. I think these are Canada Geese. Delmarva Geese don’t get up this early.
Doug had already brought in the summer flowers. Now we’ll have leaves all over the house all winter. Whoopee.
It is my understanding that it the day that retailers usually get out of the red and go into the black. I didn’t do anything to help the situation. It is much safer to stay home.
I decided to make a hat to go with the Danish sweater. It’s almost finished. Maybe I’ll have a picture in another day or two.
Well, almost. We were too full for pie. I think my son is getting a cold. He went to bed after dinner. We can always have pie for breakfast.
Zip wanted everyone to see his new fur coat. No animals were killed in making this coat. Well, maybe a few lizards and snakes and those tasty little voles.
