terrific thursday

I noticed that I have a couple of new followers!!

Welcome!

And there were a couple of comments left from new visitors

ciao!

and a visit from

Elizabeth Cat

is always a wonderful surprise

I don't remember how to say

HI

in Latvian

!!!

I woke up extra early this morning

how's 5.15 am sit with you?

so the day will be long

and

I hope

 productive

As you can see from the photo below

we have a frozen lake

covered by a blanket of snow

albeit a thin one

but they say we may get up to 3"

which for the first snow is quite a bit around here

further SOUTH

they are in for 5" or more

Hope the youngest son

makes it through alright!!

this was just a few minutes after it started

I bought a roll of wrapping paper the other day

incase I don't have any or can't find it

this little one has taken a liking to it

she was resting her head on it yesterday and when I tried to move it

she objected

so

Happy Christmas

Mummy's Little Angel

this is the mess on my desk

paper

yarn

glue

cold coffee

patterns on the desktop

on the monitor

and one of them is

the reason for the circular needles

I found a pattern

and it's working

so far

NO it's working

and hopefully I will have a hat soon

I love the stich pattern

it looks like bricks

or

dashes and dots

and the obsession with the stars

continues

Thank you to those of you who said thank you for posting the tut

I said, on Flickr, that if you don't have fancy shmancy paper

you can use computer paper or magazines or wrapping paper or old books

but not the first editions or the antique ones

please

!!!!

I'm going to "scatter " them around the house soon

and of course

take a picture or twelve!!

THIS

is a ruffly twisty scarf made with the yarn left over from the

Tunisian one

I made

that isn't for

moi

the hubs said he thought it was

coooo-ol!!!

yes, he noticed!!!

the night before last

while I was cooking dinner

I had something to look at

that was quite

lovely

the Heron was dining along with me

I saw him catch THREE fish

I'm not sure he should still be here

but I'm so glad he was

and Jack is still around

have a terrific day

stay warm and safe

and I'll catch you later

!!!

:)
