What's in a Name?

I have posts waiting to be posted. But I need pics to go with them and I am completely unmotivated to do anything once I get home from work. I haven't even knit the past two evenings. It's just WRONG!

So until I get off my bum, a little amusement for you.

Snitched from Midnight 2 Sticks:

1. YOUR GANGSTA NAME (First 3 letters of first name plus izzle)

5. YOUR SUPERHERO NAME: (2nd favorite color, favorite drink).

Katie's Perch

When I put my Christmas tree up, I had to move the table I have in my foyer to another location. The only place the table fits is in my dining room. Part of the table is in front of a window. Katie LOVED sitting there and watching whatever was going on in the pine trees on that side of the house.

I took the tree down and moved the table back to the foyer and I felt a little bad about taking away the perfect Katie perch. So I bought her a present this weekend…

It was worth every last penny… I placed her in it and she lay right down and started purring like a motor boat. Every time I turned around she was in her window hammock.

Can you tell she is totally annoyed at my intrusive picture taking?

Success!

Teaching my co-worker to knit was not only a total success, I have lured her to the dark side. Here is an e-mail message I just got from her...

"I'm officially addicted. I hope this feeling never ends…"

Now where's my toaster oven?

All sorts of cool stuff...

I joined the Briar Rose KAL. I have 1550 yards of Legacy that I want to make into a shawl from Victorian Lace Today and I'm going to need all the support I can get. What I didn't count on was prizes! I won this:
3 skeins of Sonoma! I'm so thrilled! I'm not too sure what I'm going to make with it but I can't wait to wind it up!

I also have a finish to report...

I just love the way the stitches on this scarf look.
