What's That Sound?
Wed Oct 22 2008


Don't you just love it when the first thing you hear in the morning is the sound of a dog barfing?

That's how my day started.

Thank you Pal!

It wasn't much, thank goodness, and he was in his crate, so now he has nice clean fresh blankies to sleep on tonight.

Speaking of Pal, we have two people interested in adopting him. I'm hoping to hear from one of them soon. Unfortunately they both live quite a ways away, so they will have a bit of a drive.

We shall see what comes of it, if anything. Though I have never had someone come and look at a dog and then decide not to take them. But there's a first time for everything I suppose.

I have been a bit in the knitting doldrums since I finished a shawl for my mom. Though yesterday I did buy some yarn for a couple of gifts and am happily knitting away on a scarf right now. I can't show it to you just yet.

But I can show you these little guys.

I found the pattern on Ravelry day before yesterday.

I borrowed the wine corks from my neighbor.

You could die from cute...eh?

( Well, it's official. You ARE easily amused. )

It's a skill with a long and glorious tradition.

My dad and I have a bet on the World Series. He chose the Rays. Where are they from? So I have the Phillys, Phillies? The enormous sum of 10 dollars American rides on the outcome.

Batter up!

    I've been awakened many times to the sound of a cat barfing... I'm sure it's quite similar. lol

    The cork men are cute - you could turn that red one into a santa and make it a tree ornament.

    Congrat's -- you won the bet!!!!!! I wake up every morning usually to cat barf somehere. With 4 cats someone is going at it, though usually Shortcakes who has tummy troubles. Here's to finding a loving and good home for Pal. Good for you for sticking with him and making such a difference in his life and helping him change his behavior.
