This bulb took forever to flower (planted Dec 1).  But it has two flower heads on it so well worth the wait.... Mary

Obie has subdued the green rubber toy into submission....  Mary

So, for the next three days we will have four cats and a very bouncy, fluffy, adorable and energetic puppy in our house.  Thankfully Obie is tiny enough to pick up with one hand, therefore easy to corral and subdue when he gets carried away.... Mary

January 14

It is National Dress Your Cat Up Day.  Since I value my life and want to sleep with both eyes closed, it is put the cats in things day not put things on them day....  Mary

Monster thinks it's time for everyone to go to bed early.... Mary

Finished pattern so I can try it out on cotton first....  Mary

I keep reminding myself that it's just a head cold, and I will be fine in a couple of days.  Monster is clearly worried though....  Mary

Stayed home from work with my dreadful cold, but managed to work for several hours remotely.  Deadlines are a pain....  Mary

January 8

Going to bed early with Monster and my terrible, awful cold....  Mary

January 7

Monster is totally right on this one.  Tonight into tomorrow will be -30 wind chill with snow.  Enough already.  It is too early to start saying that I am tired of winter, but enough with the cold.  At least the daylight is getting longer every day.  It may be the only thing that is keeping me going this week....  Mary

January 6

Monster just wants the cold to stop now....  Mary

January 5

Stopped after work and bought some red cotton to do a test run of the red silk cloth.  It will be much simpler to make mistakes on the cotton than the silk....  Mary

Downton Abbey's new season premiered tonight.  The beadwork on the gowns from that era is just phenomenal....  Mary
