Whitty Kitty

My cat has this ball that she like to play with, it use to have some feathers attached to it but they are long gone. There are just enough feather nub to it that she can carry the ball around with it and then drop it on the smooth kitchen surface and play. Well today I showed her that it bounces too. This is a wonderful new thought to her. She is a smart kitty I will give her that, she now will carry the ball to the top of "her" chair (yes she has her own chair..I know) and drop it off the top so it will bounce. I thought it was pretty good of her to figure this out.

Watch out

I'm going to be out of control. I went to Barnes and noble today. I swear I can't just spend 15 bucks in there like everyone else. I have to pend at least 80 every single time I go in. And thats with my member discount! Anyways, I bought a few new knitting books with kick ass patterns. So let the yarn start flying. Everyone can expect to get a knitted goody in the mail. Also I start school on Monday. I'm excited but nervous, when I went to the campus to buy my books, I was the OLDEST person there not a teacher. SAD. I might just loose it if some kid raises their hand and asks permission to use the bathroom. I'm going to be the old lady, sitting up front, taking all the notes. I just hope I do good. Oh and one thing I LOVE about this school. You can register and pay for everything online. LOVE IT. God I hated long lines to register, sending you to 8 different building taking 8 hours, for what took my 15 minutes this time. Ok later

Ah HA

Ok so I finally figured out my pattern. I am so proud of myself. I like being able to work things out for myself. Yippee I can continue on. I am sure i will get stuck again. I will take some pictures tomorrw on how it's comming along. Right now it looks like a whole lot of nothing. My biggest worry is sewing all the pieces together. I am not very good a seams. Eek. Night

Damn baby sweater

Ok so I am frustrated, I had told the rescue team I would bring the dogs to the new rescue about two hours away on Saturday, but X has just informed me that he is leaving to go out of town for two days starting tomorrow. And taking the good truck. My car would never make it so I have to cancel on them and that makes me feel like shit. Like I am letting the team down and the dogs most important.
Ok on another note I am now knitting a cute little cardigan for my niece for her first birthday. If you are a knitter it is the baby's first tattoo with the swallows on the front from S&B. Anyways I finished the back and now I am stuck. I am not very good at reading patterns yet, I am a new knitter, and this pattern is just worded funny. So I am either going to have to keep working on this and frogging it till I get it right (already done twice) or wait till morning and go to the YS and beg for help. I really wish there were more knitters or a Stitch and bitch around here. All the knitters I have met are like 80 and freaked out by me. Grrr. Ok I think I am going to try to get this ONE more time. Then I will have to wait it out till morning. I will never be able to sleep cause it will drive me nuts. Why can't they just write these out in english.

The MAN of the hour MOOKIE

I love this guy so much those other cats are not worthy of being in the same post as him. Meet Mookie
"what are you doing with that thing flashing at me?"

He is the most Handsome cat ever. He showed up at our apartment pretty much as soon as we moved in. He is a little beat up, but he is a sweet heart. At least he wants to be. He comes up to the sceen and rubs his head on it if you have your hand on it. If he sees you he fips over on his back and rolls around. That is until you open the sceen. Then he runs about 2 feet away and gives a sad meow. He want's to be loved SOOO bad but is still a little scared. He has just started letting me touch the top of his head a little but he jumps. If I keep my hand over part of the bowl he will eat and rub his head on my hand. We are working on things. When I move I am going to get a cat trap and trap him and take him with me. And then I will spoil him rotten.

"Ok that thing is freaking me out"

And I just love the little pattern on the top of his head. Isn't it pretty.

I LOVE this cat. He wants to be cuddled and loved so bad but is just so unsure of things. I can't wait till I can make him a house cat and spoil him rotten. I will knit him a big comfy kitty bed and toys. Ok well I am going to wrap this up cause I have kitties meowing at me.

Awww She loves me

So You have met Kitten, or mitten or Kit TON, take your pick

she is a cute cat, a bit bratty but I blame that on her dad. All he does is wrestle with her so she usually doesn't like to cuddle to much. Well yesterday X was out of town, and all she did was cuddle, it was so nice. I think I forgot to show you her cute little dots see..


Now who I didn't tell you about was Lucy.

"stupid human just hand over the food"



"I will give you the stink eye till you give it to me"



She is not really "our" cat, I mean she pretty much lives on our porch and we feed her but she is not very friendly. If you get to close to her she swats at you (even as you are pouring the food in the bowl) and she spats at you. What can I say she is an ungratefull brat. At least that is what I thought until today. When I got home today she was sitting on the porch by the bowl (like normal) but she had brought me a thank you gift. A dead mole. A BIG dead mole. It was really cool actually but I forgot to take a picture of it. Sorry I know how bad you wanted to see a big dead mole. I thought it was sweet.

I hate the T.V.

Ok so I really need a job. Like now. I am sick of having NO money and anytime I want to buy something I have to ask for permission. What am I 12. This is just stupid. Plus I really want my own place. Not that I am misserable I mean we both pretty much realized we are roomates and have settled into that role, but I want my own place. I mean I have ALWAYS lived with a guy. I want to know that I can do it on my own. I don't don't need no stinking man. A housekeeper once a week would be nice, but not a man. I want to pay my own bills and sit around knitting and listening to music.

I hate having the T.V. on all the time. X thinks I am wierd and always looks at me like I am crazy when he comes home and I am sitting here reading or knitting without the T.V. on. He thinks something is wrong. Nothing is wrong with me, what is wrong with people that always have to have their T.V. on for noise, or entertainment. Can't you find something else to do but stare into the stupid box. Pick up a book, find a hobbie, go outside and garden. I get bitched at because I would rather read or knit than watch T.V. For some reason if I am sitting on the same couch but not staring into the same box X is I am ignoring him. I'm not ignoring you I am ignoring the box. Big difference.

UGH, I have to get ready to go to the Doctor. I hate going to the Doctor. I hate waiting for the doctor. At least I can knit while I wait. Yippee
