Wednesday Kitty Post!

Okay, I think we can all say that I have shown to be a tiny bit obsessed with my cat Persephone. I just can't help it. I love my kitty. 
Persephone is just so expressive, and cute, and sweet, and a pain; all rolled in to one normal-not-normal cat. 

Lately she has developed a fondness for sleeping on pillow on the sofa. 


As you can see, she really likes this red sofa pillow. She is also giving me That look. You know. The one that says "What are you Doing?"


I think she thought I was going to play with her mouse. LOL

Of course since it's Wednesday I suppose I should also share some of my work in progress. :-)

I'm working on my "lazy" blanket. 


This is what I work on when I'm too lazy to count, or follow a pattern. Do you do that? I simply can't believe that I'm the only one with a lazy project!

This yarn. I love this yarn. I know I've gone on about it before, but I'll do it again!


This is the Island Collection. The yarn is 67% Cotton, 25% Wool, and 8% Silk. 
It crochets up like a dream!!

I have this blanket I'm working on, and I have a sweater I need to finish by putting buttons onto it. I just haven't got the "umph" up to mess with buttons tonight. 

What's your current project?

The Wannabe Queen....

She has decided that this pillow, this red one right here, is hers. 


She has also been so kind as to inform me that I am a horrible slacker for not working on my crochet any so far this week. 

I shall endeavor to remedy this tomorrow evening. 

Do your own Majesties boss you around?

Right Now

Right Now I Am....

Loving the crisp fall weather that allows me to have hot tea and a fire going. 

Loving plotting and planning my next crochet make. 

Loving snuggles with Persephone. This is one kitty that loves to lay in front of the fire. 

Loving deep jewel tone fall colors. 

Right now I am loving Autumn. 

What are you loving right now?

Ed the Rose has quite the bite.

Back in Feb we went down to Waycross to get some stuff from my house and to dig up Ed.
The tulip magnolia was in bloom, as it normally is this time of the year in Waycross. I love this tree, and now I have to figure out where in my yard to plant one. :-)

The two blueberry trees were also in bloom. I'll miss not having blueberries in the summer.

So, we dug up Ed. Here is Ed, short for Edna the Peace Rose.

My son, Shaelan helping to dig the hole to put Ed into at home here Bishop.

Persephone has to see what all the excitement is all about.

I will say, this roses thorns are huge!! And they hurt if you're not carfefull when handling her!
Ed is in the ground and all watered. This is still back in Feb and I was so very nevous that the last of our winter would be too much for Ed. Driving north for 4 1/2 hours means there is quite a temp difference between the two cities. 

Yep, crystal mushrooms. It's the biginnig of an idea for a Fairy garden.

So, this is one if the things I did in Feb.
Wheeeee.

The joys of oral surgery...in the cold rain.

     It's Friday, and raining, and cold. And I get the to have the joy of having three teeth surgically removed today. Yay. Please notice the use of the sarcasm font. LOL
     It is raining, but the birds are still loving their bread in the feeder right now. Not that they will stay at it long enough for me to get a picture of one.
     But there is still a beauty to be found in the winter landscape and the shades of greys, greens, and browns. Lovely earthy colors.

     My cat, Persephone is also loving the cat-TV that the feeders are providing her.
     This spot on the back of the sofa is one of her favorites. Can't say as I blame her, it's one of my favorite seats in the room as well.

     Well, time for me to take my pre-op drugs grab my worry doll, Ludo, and get moving to the surgeon's office. Ugh.
     Even Ludo looks as nervous as I feel. Dental work always causes such high anxiety for me. Ahmwell, it is what it is. I see a weekend of rest and crochet in my plans, with warm soups, warm drinks, and warm fires in the hearth.
   See y'all later.

Right now . . .

Yeah, well, it has been awhile since I've posted.  I have joined the many masses that are trying to write a novel in November. Plus, I get a great idea for a post, and have no pictures to go with it, or I have some pictures, but they were from days ago.  I have everyday writers block?  I think I've chatted about this before.
Well, regardless, I have been a bit of a busy, and lazy bee of late.

Right now I am loving the afternoon light as it shines through the house.
     This is from yesterday; my kitty, Persephone enjoying helping me crochet.

    More like enjoying the sun, my lap and getting pets.

     Late afternoon sun setting behind our house. Yeah, there are trees that are growing right up against the deck. They won't be there after this weekend.  I have such plans for this tiny little back deck.

     The light throwing rainbows into the room.

     A rainbow-beam lighting up the scarf I'm making.  Which I finished last night. 

Right now I am loving Eggnog!!  The yummy seasonal drink is perfect by itself, mixed with milk, or used instead of creamer in coffee or tea!  Really, really yummy!!
    This is a new brand that we just found.  It is a bit lighter in the heavy cream than some of the others. Oh, and that bit on the bottle?  Right there..."Each sale helps children in foster care...." Yeah...

     Then if you read the back of the bottle?  You might need a tissue, I did.

Right now I am loving the Goddess Group at my UU church.  We get together every third Sunday and enjoy a lesson, or an activity. This week we worked on the idea of chakras and the gems and colors that are associated with them.

      This is the Chakra charm that I made for a friend that every once in a while needs extra love and affirmation.  I hope that the energies put into it's creation really help her.

Right now I am loving the cold nights, and my fireplace.  Working on crochet and writting don't always mix.

     But by golly, I can give it a try!

     This scarf is also now done, as these two pictures were from one night late last week.

Right now I am loving being able to be home during the day, and not have the stress of a job.  But all good things must come to an end, and I am still working very hard on attempting to get a job.  Our finances are really getting too tight for our comfort.  I have been debating on adding a "Donate" button to my blog. I think I will end up adding it, I just need to sus out how it's done.
Also, those two scarfs will be added to my Zibbet shop by the end of the day today! 

Right now, what are you loving?
