latest addition to the addiction...

now on to the colours that came yesterday

:) :) :)

hello...

from the roomontheleft

all's well...mostly!!!

we had an anniversary

husband is back to fixing old watches

 and I nabbed this one as my own

and 

I bought some absolutely beautiful cotton thread from Knit Picks

so I'll be going now

as I have a list as long as my arm to get done

hope all of you are well

see you around the interwebs's

xx

yet one more....

I keep finding more and more and more and they must be done

I can not

NOT make them

I have the thread so I may as well use it

so 

after days of rain and storms 

and all hell breaking loose outside

we sit in the sun today

or at least it came up this morning

and shone on the moss in the kitchen window

and George bloomed his little head off

and his scent drifts through the air

and

makes me wonder.....

which pattern will be next!!!!!!!!

hope the sun shines on you.....

and good scents drift in your air.....

:)

one more time...

a doily

a purple one this time

sorry 'bout the bad light

there isn't any

or there wasn't when I took this

now of course it's just fine!!

ooofa!!!!

really like the texture with this one

same stitch over and over

with a break of chains

so it didn't get boring

not sure about the colour tho'

but I'll never know as I have no intention of doing another one

once for each pattern is enough

!!!!!!!!!

and now

to the lake

we had another major down pour last night

buckets and buckets and buckets came down on us

BUCKETS

this morning they said

2-3 inches

in a matter of minutes mind

minutes

and we're in for another round today and most of the week

so I may have to start hooking a dinghy soon

and gathering the gooses two by two

^^^^ this photo is from January to show how full the lake is ^^^^

as it looks today and you can see how brown it is too from the run off

unfortunately the log with the turtle floating on it have disappeared

he must have sailed off into the sunrise!!!!

glugg!!!!!  glugg!!!!

NOAH!!!!!!

here are some pretty pictures of the latest addition to the inside flower garden

his name is 

George

why George???

because its Latin name is

Stephanotis

which reminds me of Stephanopoulis

so ...

hence the George!!! 

(George Stephanopoulis was President Clinton's right hand man and is now a newsman)

don't ask

:) :) :) :))))))

I show you these because outside

UMMMM

did someone move us overnight to the deep dark tropical 

JUNGLE

yesterday and today

we have had 

torrential downpours 

that pop up out of nowhere

 

 it suddenly gets foggy

and then it starts 

RAINING

really HARD and really LOUDLY

and the water just runs like

well

umm

WATER!!!!

(this has NOTHING to do with the storm that blew by over the weekend

NOTHING)

so let's have one more look at

GEORGE!!!!!

he smells purty too!!!

stay dry

DancePonyDance

 

don't ask me how the hell I found it

I just did

and it's so cute I thought I'd share

as they say

so

enjoy

the pony

 

damn and blast....

 I had my phone...so I took some snaps of the clouds that are already over us

there is a tropical storm lurking over Florida

which is a long long way away from our neck of the woods

but it seems she reaches far and wide

hope she burns herself out by the time she gets here tomorrow

we took a little trip "into town"

as a friend of ours used to say

we have no town 

so it's funny they should say that!!!

anyhoo

food and necessities were on the list

and a trip to

Wallyworld too

you know 

I keep seeing/reading people say that there are folk

 who go to Wallyworld in curlers and pajamas

 in all the years I've been going

 I have never ever 

ever 

seen anyone in their PJ's

or curlers

I have seen people in their slippers and "lounge wear" at the local gas'n'go

up the road...that's always fun!!! but I don't go there anymore...no need!!!  he! he!

and while we were in 

the big W

guess what I came across

for

$3.97

if I had known!!!!!!

;0

daisies doilies and DAHS

 

 

 

TAH -DAH

that is!!!

 

here it is in a better setting...

I'm glad I finished it and that it's done and done...

now on to the next...
