Luna Frypan!

Somethings happened at our house.

It requires getting all my baskets up off the floor.

The contents are far too interesting.

(Note the messy green yarn.)

Luna Frypan.

4 months old.

Former Prairie's Edge Humane Society resident.

Lab/Bloodhound cross - but that's really just a guess.

Our big dog is 11, and he's beginning to slow down.

I want to keep a big dog as a running companion.

Luna will be ready in a year or so.

In the meantime, welcome to our zoo!

Now, if you'll excuse me, I have basket reorganization to finish.

The kittens are down

The kittens have come to ground.  Mama cat Yasmine has placed them under the steps.  They DO like to come out and nap in the sunshine - much better than being under the cool dark steps!

There was a question of how we knew the kittens were in the tree.  We saw mama cat climbing the tree on a regular basis, so we had to wonder why?

I'd have loved to see her bringing those babies down, wouldn't you?

This year the babies have W names.

This is Willis.

This is Willow.

(Wyoming was too shy for a picture this morning.)

Kittens in a tree

We've got a mama cat that has figured out the safest place for her kittens.

16 feet up.

In an old squirrel nest in a tree hollow.

Three babies safe and warm.

Can't say I've ever seen that before...

Waitin' for the bus

Girl of the House this morning, waiting for the bus.

Isn't it great when you have a really good book?

Starting over

Here's a last look for Bekky:

17 inches of warm Dale goodness.

Turns out, the only way this would fit tiny little Bekky is if she gained more than 50 pounds.  
I think that's too much to ask, don't you?

I did some calculations when I started her sweater, as I needed to replace the Daletta yarn for the Heilo yarn.  They have fairly different gauges.

Yeah, I miscalculated.  Yeah, I knit and knit and knit, and didn't do any measuring.  

Yeah, I was having fun!

Now that I'm ready to start the sleeves, I actually did some measuring.  

40 inches around.  

Never going to work.

Keep telling myself I'm a process knitter.  That's my story and I'm stickin' to it...
