September 23, 2014: Today in Review

Today I Worked on…

…photographing and blogging about this little Christmas wreath ornament. My sweet kitty, Inky, helped. He is so helpful! Please disregard any shredding or chewing that may be visible on the finished project sample…

Christmas Wreath Ornament or Cat Toy

  • This page of fingerless glove patterns at KnittingandCrochet.net; it’s not finished yet, but it’s off to a good start.
  • This page featuring a pair of wrist warmers by a fellow freelance pattern designer, Erica. I crocheted the wrist warmers a few years ago, then donated them to the folks at the Pine Ridge Reservation.
  • A whole bunch of holiday blog posts that are scheduled to be published over the next few months at appropriate times. Since I’m not in America at the moment, I tend to lose track of when American holidays are, and it helps me to schedule holiday-related blog posts ahead of time. Working on Thanksgiving posts reminds me that I sure will miss having Thanksgiving turkey with my family. I suppose the travel adventures I am having sort of make up for that. Sort of.

Today’s Workout…

Didn’t happen. Oops! Tomorrow will be better…

Today I Realized…

Re-reading the post above reminds me that I haven’t updated my kittens page in a long time — and I never wrote down the story of how we adopted Inky, or the story of how we re-homed Izzy and Cindy (and then later got Cindy back.) Or the story of how Ginger turned out to be a boy. Whoops! Or the story of how Rocketboy decided that he wants to be our cat, never mind that we already have too many cats.

These are stories that will have to be told another time…for now, over and out.
