Every once in a while I catch a flash of Mocho on the windowsill or Brutus near the fireplace.

I talk to them same as I did when I would kitty-sit before we lived here.

Hubs and I live in a 97 year old home, which was my Bonus Dad's house before us.

He had two cats, Mocho and Brutus who loved the stained glass windows and fireplace respectively. Brutus went over the rainbow bridge in 03 and Mocho passed in 2018, after they moved to Alberta.

Our ghost cats are bad for misbehaving when I'm not up for it. Talking to them regularly helps sometimes.

Yup, thats usually how my winter knits (hats, shawls, cowls) pile looks like by around now. I should do a wash session soon.

Another reason professional athletes don't belong in the Olympics.

Oooooh, I've been in that water in August and it was 🥶🥶🥶, can't imagine what it was like today.

If you let a woman into a chocolate shop on Valentine's Day.......

Thanks. The multi colour yarn is a favourite from a Canadian fibre artist.

How in the hell did this information not become publicly known during either presidency???? 🤯

Stunning!!!! Congrats on the finish.

UK version or US? (I've never seen either but heard good things about both).

See, my issue is when an interviewee shows up and THEN the recruiter comes and asks for a boardroom to be booked. 🤬

Grand monkey got a crash course in curling yesterday during the Can/Kor match. He was pretty interested in how the stones moved and how they use the brooms to adjust the path.

My mom is 90 minutes away and my mum is 15 minutes.

Pink and white tubular peyote stitch earring with fringe on a white and grey felt beading mat.

Finished earrings. 💕

Cream and grey felt beading mat with spool of thread, cat needle minder, and seven vials of variegated purple to white beads.

Small boy's blankie fixed and in the wash.
Dishes done.
Supper in the crockpot.
Onto beading.

It's not even the tech part, it's the data storage and stats reporting piece. New ways to analyze and make pretty reports.

Yup, I've come to enjoy having the next generation in our office.

When they ask 'why' for something, I'll give the answer, but then ask them 'can you see a different way'. New eyes aren't a bad thing.

The German one was pretty ugly too.

Ditto from a 1980 X-er.

Ouch.
I deal with records going back to 1922 so I get it.

Hope your day got better.

Yeah, it was a bit tough getting out of bed this morning; was glad to be off last week during the worst of the cold.

I was more annoyed, the squeals of joy meant stuff that was supposed to be covered for me didn’t get done and I now had a lot more work to do.

I was off for a week, the sounds I heard this morning were squeals of delight. I'm the one making disgruntled sounds.

I use the storage box from Michael's craft store, with all the coloured smaller boxes. Each box holds all the lengths of each size (two boxes for some....).

I warned my hubs one time not to look at the wall of needles at a LYS. He'd have a heart attack if he saw the cost of one Chiagoo needle. 😉

Copy and paste the bunny and then put something else in their hand

Bunny says, “Have a cuppa.”

Yup, usually toss in a spoon of cheese whiz when making it.
It's a nice way to use up leftovers.

One of my favs starts with KD, then I add in cubed cheese squares (pepper jack, gouda, or swiss), bacon or ham, peas, and a bit of pickle. Dressing of mayo and a touch of mustard.

Knit blanket in progress. Colours from the entire rainbow.

Progress on one of last year's New Year's Cast Ons. A blanket using up leftover bits and pieces as well as the 'oh, it's pretty' single skeins.

My favourite pairs of fingerless gloves.
I have many others, but they're at the office.
