• vacation was different. didn't want to have to leave the water on for 3 days because of the freeze. we stayed home and did things that we have been needing to do almost as long as we've been living here (a decent amount of time).

  
  

  we got a bird feeder!!! and the birds love it! made a scarf for spidey, but forgot to take a picture. and forgot to take a picture of the baby blanket and hat i crocheted. BOY that is a funny looking word. anyways, a friend that's about to give birth (like tomarrow) came by yesterday, i was able to finally get a prego picture of her (and give her the hat and blanket). i have the mural of the french quarter alley drawn on the landing in the backroom, just needing to paint it. picture when finished.

  
  

  in the wait-while, here is a picture of the round blanket i am making out of yarn. growing some grass (from the birdseed) for the cats. they will be in kitty happiness. and trimmed the neighbors' vines that are over-taking my vehichle (which is fixed now), root-toned them and attempting to see if they will grow. velcro...a velcro easil to put my yarn work on while i work on it would be dandy...notice from the picture i don't REALLY know what i am doing in the crochet department, so instead of working from an edge or an outside to the inside... i'm doing it in reverse.

  
  

  wish i woulda got a picture of the evil one once he realised he didn't have to sit on the crochet work to get me to stop...he relised he could dive-bomb the skein of yarn, roll around with it, and with it being so light, grabbing it in mouth and trying to take off with it.

  
  

  hunni bunni found me a kreepy kelly clock. it is the best! i saw it on sale, but hunni had already got it for me before i asked. hunni also screwed in the ceiling, put up a towel rack, rearranged the bedroom, worked on his wooden maze, drank his beer, fixed the leaky sink, mowed the grass and took me to chili's and we decorated a table together.

  
  

  poor puppy next door (this is a pic of him whining to me, while i am upstairs), is not seeming to be left out as much. i have finally been getting some sleep, but mainly i hope he is doing better.

  
  

  made chili last night. i still LOVE my chili. even after trying about 300 or so chilis at that cook-off last year (yeah, it's about that time again!!!), i still crave my own. maybe because i seem to be the only person in the world who likes beans in it.
