Throw Back Thursday

We made it to the new year. Me and mum went to bed early, slept our way in. When we got up we watched the purr-ade and then later the game. We are bummed as Bucky Badger losted the game by one point.

One of my first pics of the year. I invaded mum's lap during the feetsball game and while she was working on the crow-shay. She finished this blankie last night and will pick more yarn to start the next one.

Even a cute video of my paw on the blankie.


Our throw back is to early in 2010 and guess what, mum was working on a blankie! But this one she was knitting. It was for her first grand niece and she wanted it to be special. She doesn't make this pattern very often. You can see that Derby liked to assist her like I do.

ManCat Monday


Cats are peaceful and tranquil - they bring calmness with their serene personalities - Chris Evert
Yeah we are peaceful, except when we are not. Playing THoE or just chasing imagined prey around the house. Putting the bitey on our beans. Chasing the red dot.

Well we are into a new year. Mum finished her big fat book on New Year's night, now she is cracking on the blurpy blankie. She only had three stripes done when she restarted, she got 1 and a half more done when she took the picture Caturday night. Now she should have done by the end of Sunday 6 stripes.

There are a total of 20 stripes that gotta be done, plus the edging. Mum says with the feetsball playoffs she will have time to work and get this done. The blurpy will be here in April. Mum says Grampie told her they found out it will be a girl, so Uncle Stormie, who will be the Grampie to this new blurpy is calling it "Tinkerbell". Mum says she needs to find a Tinkerbell toy to include with the blankie.
I figured I can help too by sitting on it and getting it furrified. The little blurpy thing will have a kittie to live with, might as well get the blankie broken in by a kittie.
 
 
 Mum also took the Christmouse tree down, along with the other decorations. The snow guys are still out, but then there is still snow on the ground. I must be slipping, I haven't even knocked them down off the top of the TV this year.

Feetsball Report

The Pack - They won, beating the Cardinals. They will play next weekend in the play offs and, deja vu, play the Cardinals.

Brett and Them Vikings - Beat the Giant guys who haven't been playing well. Heading for the playoffs as the #2 seed and get next weekend off. If the Pack wins next weekend, then they will play the Vikes.

The Colts - Lost playing in the snow at Buffalo, didn't play all of the good guys again this game. Heading for the playoffs and the #1 seed and gets next weekend off.

  6. At midnight, The Hubby and I watched the fireworks display from our front windows, that lasted 7 minutes, then we dove into bed! Staying up until midnight was a real job.

  11. Ducky, that video of your paw loving on the blanket is wonderful. The last picture shows how much Angel Derby liked blankets too.
