Hi Maytaurus - so good to hear from you. We miss you when you're not up to posting. I'm so sorry that 'the usual' keeps you out of action. You don't 'drone on' so please don't think you do; you know that we're all here for you. The patterns are wonderful - I'm sure there'll be something there to suit everyone. There's not too many, either, so please don't take any off the list! It' so good of you to find them for us.
Well, for a change, I woke up early - it's been ages since that happened and I much prefer it to waking up later and chasing the time for the rest of the day. The cat decided to stay in, and I woke up to find him curled around my head on the pillow with one paw on my cheek, purring away! Not sure how hygienic that really is, though!
Well, I'm just waiting for the bathroom to warm up then I'll have an early shower before a hopefully constructive day starts for a change.
See you all later.
KathyXXKNIT YOUR SQUARE TOTALS:
Squares: 11, Animal blankets: 20 -
PSSO -Elaine - you obviously have a wee guardian angel hanging around you both, as it gets closer to the date take it really easy - no rushing out onto the main roads - there is always some eejitt waiting to pounce.
Mrs Moneypenny - glad to hear the chooks are being fed, they do look a lot better for a meal.
Mioliere- like you I hope to do MY THINGS today but I believe I could be interrupted - so won't aim too high on my lists of jobs for ME.
Maytaurus - fantastic list of things to do for Easter/craft fayre/Christmas (wash you mouth out gal on the last item), take it easy and chill some in the eternal hope of a better day to come. Did you mean the knitted cats as doorstops - they would chase the chooks!
Hope you all have a great day and the sun shines for you - I have the clouds but hey that's fine by me. Back later I hope

Morning all, lovely sunny day today, do you think spring might actually be on it's way? It seems to have been such a long winter this year.
Lovely to see you Maytaurus, and as always, a very interesting post.
psso my DH says he has half a dozen potential accidents to and from work every day, people are in such a hurry and the roads are so overcrowded now, even at 6am. Hope DD is ok, take care of yourselves.
What a little love Louis is Kathy, and don't cats make your head hot.
Jean I hope you get to do your own thing today, and tell us all about it.
Hope the sun shines on you all, lots of love, xxx0 -

Morning all...beautiful sunny day here so am up to allotmet with a friend at 12...need to get some manure and bits before then so must get moving!! Managed some squares last night although a thing with whiskers seems to have run off with needle pack...Had some issues with neighbor downstairs again.. bane of my life she is and why she ever got a flat below someone is beyond me..she should be on here own island and even then the noise of the birds would be cause for complaint no doubt...grrrr
Lovely to "see" you may...hugs all that need them. Back tonight!Nerd no 109 Long haulers supporters DFW #1! Even in the darkest moments, love and hope are always possible.0 -

rushing about as ive just got in from doing a paper round (favour for the local shop) it was so nice i didnt bother with a coat but by the end i was regretting it. dark clouds are rolling in and its gone very cold (i WILL be taking my cost to work at dinner time)SPC~12 ot 124

message for shezmit,
you haven't left enough wool to sew the teddies up, after visiting several shops in several towns, i cant find the right shade to match, so i will send them back to you along with the money to purchase stuffing.
feeling so fed up today, nothing seems to be going right, daniel being a handful, and not enough hours in day
shaz xenjoy life, we only get one chance at it:)0 -
Hello all - sorry ive been missing again - have you missed me???
well its been all go - birthdays - DS (9) and DH (40) - little party last weekend - great to see my mum and dad and sisters and families - but I always end up feeling a little blurgggghhhhh after they have gone - not good considering im still not fully out from the last black cloud session ....hmmmm
elaine - i just cant believe dd only has a few weeks to go and of course all the decorating and her having the baby brings back memories of dear Jim - not matter what you are doing im sure little things pop up all the time - big hugs to you but i really admire the way you keep on and tackle all those "blue" jobs - he would be very proud of you xxxxxxx
may - oh now you know us better than that - you want to "drone on" well go on and "drone on" - if you want to talk about it go ahead and let it all out - sorry its the usual - thinking of you and hugs xxxx
thanks for all those lovely patterns i love the yellow baskets and the teddy
Ive had a funny cold for a few days which has left me feeling a bit washed out and fuzzy although my mind is usually fuzzy so no different there - im gonna have to apologise that im not commenting on everything ive read - sorrrrrry - loving thoughts and hugs to all especially those that need an extra special one xxxxx
And to top it all off - we've found our next house - we move in 6 weeks so packing up again - hmmmmm - I used to enjoy moving - perhaps im getting old - or has it been just having to do it sooooo much in the last three years - hopefully nothing will go wrong at this house - it is really light and airy and has a lovely garden for DS AND a study room which DH has said i can have to myself as a craft room - welllllllllll - personally i'd rather like to go and use the ones overseas in the knitting retreat - tee hee !!!!
Time is whizzing by so fast - ive realised we only have just over a month on the LH's challenges - was hoping i would get more done for them this quarter - still im sure lou appreciates everything and it seems the children are off for most of april - talk about wish our lives away
Well im off and hope i dont leave it too many days before coming back again - love to you all and hugs xxxxxDebt Diary: Im not going to be an Ostrich anymore -LBM - 16/1/12 /0 -
shaz - my message crossed with yours - it sounds like its tough at the moment - special thoughts to you - oh why cant we all live a bit nearer to one another - we could give each other a "hand" when needed
:grouphug::grouphug::grouphug::grouphug: here is lots of group hugs for you xxxxx
tonight get the little ones in bed - nice bubbly bath - fluffy pj's - bar of choc (or something to that effect) - nice cup of something and "chillax" (word used by the ever so grown up 9 year old in the house!) and if it dont work tonight - get the kids out of door to school tommorrow and then just sit and dont do a thing but watch daytime telly - go on have a day off - what ever needs doing will still be there when you go back to it xxxxDebt Diary: Im not going to be an Ostrich anymore -LBM - 16/1/12 /0
