A Meat Lover and a Vegan Walk Into a Bar…
…sounds like the beginning for a great joke, doesn’t it? It’s not, it’s just one of many things that you overhear at knit-night in these parts. ;o) I threw that up there because I couldn’t think of a good title that I hadn’t used before. Made ya look! lol
This is my ECF/Eye Candy Friday post for this week – I’m taking tomorrow off for the Holiday. I’m hoping you all understand… ;op
This ornament is from my first Christmas waaaay back when. ;o) I’m not sure who made it but I’ve hung it on my tree for as long as I can remember.
Merry Christmas for those who celebrate – and Happy Thursday/Friday for those who don’t! I hope Santa brings you everything you wish for!

He might kill me for this…
…a recent email convo with a certain knitter got me to thinking about old WIPs so I began the search for photos. While hunting through the (rather large) picture folder on my hard drive, I found this lovely photo of R holding my knitting while I ripped it. Actually, I think it was a ripping party that involved our friend B and his (now gf) also B taking turns running the ball winder. Fun times. ;o)
The TV is different, the chair now resides in the ‘craft room’ (known forever as ‘Dave’s Room’), the buffet under the TV now resides in the porch and the horrible pink yarn is long gone but…
…RR will forever be a goofball. Two seconds before this pic was shot he was pretending it was a miniskirt. Then a bikini top…
On second thought, he won’t kill me for that picture. Why? Because I’ve posted this one a couple of times and he’s fine with it:
Wait. It wasn’t that one…it was this one:
That’s the ‘fairy godroger’ shot right there. (and the one I will never, ever misplace *evil grin* notice the fetching bracelet – there are earrings behind the lace, too) I particularly love the gleam in his eye – he’s actually having fun, hehe ;o) By the way, the young lady responsible for that look turned 10 on the 21st – go wish her a happy for me, wouldja? ;o)
p.s. Thanks for being such a good sport, honey. Love you! xoxo

Birthday Anyone?
So, today is my Mother’s birthday. And as usual, I get to take over the blog and post about it!
Here is this year’s top 5 reasons as to why she’s a great mom and why she deserves this special day:
5. I am 18 and have already graduated and she has yet to kick me out.
4. She likes and gets along with Whipping Boy!!
3. She’s my mom but she is also my friend.
2. She’s trusting me to stay home alone for a whole week and a half. Not that I’m going to be partying. lol. It’s a small town, everybody knows everyone and trust me, word gets around. Plus, we have people who stop by and check up on me to see how I’m doing.
1. She helps me out and is there for me when I need her.
SOOO…HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM!! I HOPE THAT IT’S AN AWESOME ONE FOR YOU!!!
