IT'S BEEN A WEEK!

I'm knitting!!! Mittens right now, and have knit a couple pair of slippers to be felted and have rubbery bottoms applied. Must remember to check out hardware stores for a product... dipit to spray on. AND I'm spinning, and am going to take my wheel and some fiber down to the Gold Prospecters Club fall outing at the Curtis' homestead in Farmington, where Geezah has volunteered to do some cooking and cleaning up, so we'll be there a lonnnnng time. I better bring lots to spin. Got two lobsters waiting for me down there. And Geezy has two also, and he don't really care for lobster. Think I may be able to relieve him of them?

I don't believe it's been a week since I posted! My new puter is all set up... without a new video card. Gakkkk I had ordered an ATI Allinwonder card for my old puter, it didn't fit, so saved it for new puter and it didn't fit! Stuck in a really old tired negative memory card, to get me up and going, but I miss doing my jigsaw puzzles and posting my pics.

Took Tess & Sinbad's babies (12 weeks old now) down to a pet shop in Lewiston. Chickened out and Geezah had to take them in for me. Now I can't ask anyone how they're doing. All my other babies have gone where I can keep track of them, but that also means if they don't work out I take them back. I have... seven rescues, one return, four babies now. Hopefully I'll find time to spend with them! At least I'm down to all in one cage again. Well, they're all around it, but the cage is always open.

Talked, briefly, to Shane a couple days ago. Hot there. Hasn't much to say. Prolly pretty bored. At least I hope so. Excitement is NOT what I want for him in Iraq.

Justine has been bringing her puppy, NormaJean down to spend days with me while she and James are at work. She (NJ) is in heat and her daddy is following her around with his nose up her butt. Of course Justine doesn't want NJ to get preggers, and her finances won't support a spaying yet. Anyway, NJ is a real sweetie and I promise a picture as soon as my new video card is installed.

Bil's birthday was last friday, and I haven't seen him, nor called... Well, I have seen him the last two days, driving through town in his jeep with his son, Ray. I wave frantically and he waves.. well, you know how laid back he is. He waves.

The horror stories from NO are so heart wrenching, everytime I watch the news I cry. Which isn't very productive. Prayer would be more helpful.

Talked with Michelle briefly tonight, they're having beautiful fall-like weather out there in Wisconsin. Gas prices are high there. Curtails some trips. All are well and doing fine. Kids started school.

Sonia is doing well, is back at work, after a month hiatus to deal with the stress of her job and empty nest.

That's it for now. Boring without the piccys. TUFF.
