IT IS FRIDAY
IT IS TRULY FRIDAY
IT IS REALLY AND TRULY FRIDAY

I want you all to understand the importance of Friday?  Well, do you?   I was going to paraphrase the information from Wikipedia on Fridays, but I got bored and confused so I’ll just link it.
I have the interest span of a gnat, so this [...]

Grover gets a voice

This is Grover, the wonderdog.  I am reintroducing him because he gets so little face time on the blog.  We have been priveleged to be in his company for almost 18 months now.  He is over three years old.  The title refers to a relatively current behavior.  He has found his voice.  He barks at [...]

Thing 1 is done

No.  No picture.  I cut the grass last night, so I didn’t have time before the sun set (yup, summer is waning) to take decent pictures.  I have a sleeve.  Bring on the cold!  I even cast on and knit on Thing 2 last night after cooling down from cutting the grass.  Gad.  I hate [...]

Two on Tuesday

I have low standards.  I cannot pull a Ten on Tuesday, so I will pull what I can.
1.  Every time we have a heat wave predicted, the temperatures fall.  This has occurred all summer long.
2.  If this is a knitting blog, why isn’t there any knitting in it?
Thank you.
We are finishing up the summer vacation [...]

Past perfect

I talked about my grandmother’s tablecloth last spring.  It was handed down to me by her last living child, my uncle Ralph.  A kinder more gentle man you will never know.  This tablecloth is an excellent example of my grandmother’s incredible talent and tenacity.  She was a women’s rights advocate before it became cool.  She [...]

I usually spend this day wondering why the week is so blasted long.  Not this week.  I’m on the other end of the confusion spectrum here.  At least I’m consistent.  Still, Thursday is a lovely day.  It’s the Dogs on…… day, but no dog.  Grover is in another time out.  He has started standing at [...]

Do you know the song reference?  Kudos if you do.  I hate when somebody does that.  In my mind I’m singing the song from Hee Haw……”Where oh where, are you tonight?  Why’d you leave me here all alone?  I searched the world over and thought I’d found true love.  You met another and phhhlttt, you [...]

Ten on Tuesday

OK.  I lied.  I don’t really feel like doing 10.  That would require thought and planning and more thought.  I don’t wanna.  It’s not like I don’t have ten things I can talk about.  I can talk about (we are NOT talking intelligently) lots of things.  Lots of stuff.  But, the essence of the problem [...]

I’m baaack.

Taking the week(ish) off was beneficial for me.  Thanks for all your well wishes and kindness.  Things are on track now.  Of course, my choochoo runs off the track all the time.  I’m a bad engineer.  While away I got a bee in my bonnet.  I want a jacket sweater for cool weather.  I wear [...]
