Thankful Thursday, with some knitting blah blah and some Clean it all UP snaps...

Thank you for all the  MUTTS! , Mr. Patrick McDonnell!

Mutt's makes my day!

Sock knitting report:

GAH!  Anyway, I got all the gusset stitches on, and knit a baseline round or two, then I thought, "I don't think this is going to work very well without a heel cup!"

National Geo Frog Pix Source- go see amazing animals!

So, I Frogged and I frogged and I FROGGED, FROGGED, FROGGED!  First because I didn't remember to even DO a heel cap and then forgot exactly HOW to do my favorite heel cap.  I've now highlighted the TURN HERE  that was hidden in the other tiny words of the pattern.
I'm so very thankful that my right brain still works when the left brain is out lollygagging in Outer Space with the Moon Fairies.

Another Thankfulness:  I am thankful for the men and women who still care about others enough to take on the job of Nursing Care!  We had some Mama Drama over the last week.  But, my dear, tiny MIL is back on the mend, and she and I are now tied for Family's Bionic Woman Gold Metal.  She has two metal joints and so do I.  I told her she had better not try for a third because I was not going through another replacement even if they promised me a Corvette as a prize!  Ponies, maybe... *thinks about it*

Now, I'm also thankful for my very own Woofie.  This little guy keeps us Sane and willing to go through whatever it takes to see that he gets a good life after all he's been through.  No more abandonment, please God!

I've moved a major stumbling block out of the way of the SteelCase bookshelves in the Sewing Studio.  This means I can now go weeding the books and other detritus that was not accessible for a few years.  I could get at it but had to move a tall shelving unit in and out to do it.  Now it's over in front of the yarn closet and it can stay there.

The closet behind is filled with boxes of yarn
All from my long career as a yarn collector.
SABLE I'm sure.

I am going to be donning a dust mask and sucking "The Dust of Ages" up from these shelves.  They need to be used properly- this for all the stuff I'm not getting rid of to be able to fit!  I had a sort of Daydream while starving in the hospital - this was done so my pancreas - which was on strike- would not turn up it's toes.  This was a sort of a daydream about what I needed to do when I finally got home, And the words "Clean UP!" flashed across my consciousness.  Oh, Almighty and Dearest God, I am not ignoring that message!

This will hold all my binders from the mad collecting
of patterns off the web.  The bag with Yellow material
holds a whole quilt that is in the making

I hope you are safe from the floods in Florida, and the wildfires in California.  "Oh Doctor!" as a favorite sport's caster used to say.
