I woke up this morning, super excited. I rushed to the kitchen, and brewed a pot of coffee. Then, as I sat on the blue recliner, I delighted in the fact that today, is going to be AWESOME!
I get to see Harry Potter today! I am totally stoked, over this. Part of me really wanted to go see the midnight show. And yet, I am kind of happy, that I didn't ( Read more... )

I woke up this morning, feeling completely different. Everything was so great, as I first opened my eyes. My dog, of course, was more than ready to get out of the room. His tail was wagging, a mile a minute. And, he stared, with great focus, at the door. I got up, put on my house slippers, made my way out of the room, and to the kitchen. I started ( Read more... )

This morning started, the very same way most mornings do.
I woke up quite early. Today, it was too early. It was one of those mornings, where I woke up, before the sun made an appearance. And, try as I might, going back to sleep was NOT in the cards, for Yours Truly. So, I did the next best thing. I watched some good, quality TV. Home shopping ( Read more... )

This morning, was one of those mornings, where I could have just stayed in bed. It was just chilly enough, to be nice and comfy, under the quilt. Unfortunately, my dog had other ideas. It was because of him, that I woke up, when I did. The hair-licking, he has come to find, is a very effective tool, for pulling me out of sleep. Once awake, I was ( Read more... )

Last night, I called it an early night. At just past 8, I made my way, to my room. I closed the door, climbed up on my bed, and pulled out my mother's Cross Stitch & Picot Afghan. I worked my way, through the remaining portion, of the picot row (which, as stated in yesterday's post, takes forever.) Then, I worked the next row, of single crochet. My ( Read more... )

This morning, I woke up, and did the same old-same old. I made my way to the kitchen, started some coffee, then pulled the Winter Jewels Afghan, out of the TV cabinet, and made my way to the blue recliner, where I began my work.
One more row, down. The row, for this morning, was worked entirely in 3 dc clusters, using white yarn. After doing this ( Read more... )

 So much, for this morning, starting off on the 'right foot'. I woke up at 5:47 and climbed out of bed. I should have known, as soon as I was attacked, by that first round of pain, that the morning was doomed!
"Oh! Son of a bitch!" Yes, ladies and gentlemen...I, Michael Leach, was led to curse, first thing, this morning. In fact, those 5 little ( Read more... )

So, before we begin...
Yesterday, I found (what is possibly) the cutest crochet hook, I have EVER seen. I immediately knew that I wanted it. And yet, I also knew that, with funding being what it is around here, I would keep, right on wanting it. Maybe one day, when things get a little better, I will splurge on it. Last night, it took quite a bit of ( Read more... )

Once again, I was pulled from my sleep, this morning. My FREAK dog was, you guessed it...licking my hair. (I really wish I could understand, why the HELL he does it. I mean, hair can't taste particularly good, I am sure. What doggy-thrill does hair-licking hold? Or, is it just to tick me off, and make me want to PUNT him, across the room?)
I quietly ( Read more... )

So...
For whatever reason, one of our three dogs, has suddenly decided something. Last night, after having a quick dinner, I found my way to the blue recliner. I was watching sit-com reruns, and working on the Bliss Baby Blanket. And, out of the blue, it happened. Our dog took one look, at the yarn covered yellow loom, and just suddenly decided that ( Read more... )
