10-19-2024- Hey Everybody

I’m dropping in to say hello.
Many years ago, I read an article that said if you’ve taken time off from blogging, not to start back with an re-intro post, but instead, to just jump back in posting.
I think that’d be an awful cold way to restart, and since I’m past the age of giving a flip about pretentious rules, here goes… 😁

Life has kept us on our toes the past few months. Things are finally evening out. The days are getting longer and cooler. The cooler temperatures are welcome after the long hot days. We still have days of hot temperatures but they’re not as intense as before.

Sheli-bean is suffering some sad health issues mainly with his heart. He had to stay in the veterinary-hospital for a few days. We thank the good Lord above that he’s still with us. His age is an issue with his health problems. We’re diligent in giving him his medicines twice a day, which he likes a lot because they’re like a treat and cheeses. He’s our wonderful little boy. ❤️

I reached the point, with my other laptop where I could no longer tolerate it.  It was one of several reasons, that caused me some of my blogging issues. So, I splurged and got a new laptop. It’s taking some time for me to get my files/photos/programs and stuff uploaded, downloaded, reloaded and back up and running. Not to mention getting used to it. I’m still in the ‘learning curve’ stage with it.

By any chance, do you know of a good ‘note program’ that I can use across my devices: kindle fire, mobile phone and laptop? I was using ColorNote notepad, but unfortunately, it’s no longer compatible with Windows 11. :/

Okay, folks, I’ll be making the rounds, when I can, and try to do some visiting and commenting. Be patient with me, it’ll take me a few days to visit. I have a lot of catching up to do. Hopefully, I’ll be back to blogging more often, soon.

I wish you all a pleasant  weekend.
😊


Finished Gray C2C Square Afghan

Grey C2C Square Afghan in progress

I’m in the process of crocheting another ‘On the Bias Square Afghan’. One of the things I like best about this pattern is it’s a c2c pattern. I’ve decided to make it the size of the pattern instead of trying to make it larger like I did the first one.
I’m enjoying making this one better than I did the first one. I guess it’s because I’m finally comfortable with the pattern.

The days are grey and rainy with a few sporadic splashes of sunshine. Crocheting is a good way to pass the time.

Wishing you all a week of sunshine and smiles.


 

We Got Babies – fawns – wee caterpillars


Twin fawns and their Mom blessed us with a visit.
I apologize for the sad quality of the photos.
I took them through the double pane windows and screen.
Fortunately, they’re clear enough you can see the spots on the fawns.

The black swallowtail butterfly eggs started hatching. I was fortunate to see one right after it hatched and got a photo of it.
I haven’t seen it in the past couple days. I’m hoping it’s hiding under the leaves sheltering from the rain.

Wishing you a week of beautiful smiles.
