I am bummed, less than two weeks into this new blog and I get a comment that I had to delete. On the old blog I had comment moderation set up so that nothing showed until I had reviewed it. I was hoping with a new blog that I might have some time before that happened. Guess not. For now I will leave moderation off, but may need to put it back on. 

Added 4/10/26 8 AM - Comment moderation is back on. I got six comments all from the same place. I did report them to Blogger, their ID said they had only been on Blogger since last month.  

I am bummed as I seemed to have lost a few readers with the move. Even though I published the new link. Miss you guys!

Dobby and I are at an impass of sorts. While he made himself scarce the day of his vet visit I figured I should see how well he would go into the carrier. NOT WELL! I tried twice and he spent a good deal of time in the basement hiding. We seem to be rebonding and I have to get him to accept the carrier, even if it is with bribes. 

Spring is coming, the maple trees are losing their leaf bud covers, so there is that on all the paved surfaces. The forsythia bloomed, but barely. I am going to severely cut it back this year and if it still doesn't bloom replace it.  

Nice enough today to wear sandals for a bit so I could get my pedicure and get polish put on. I usually don't get polish during the winter months since I am the only one seeing my toes.  

BoPeep Multi from Loops & Threads is the blanket today. A lovely mix of pink, peach, white and just a bit of sage green. It was also the first blanket finished after Dobby arrived. He took over inspection duty from Ducky. Only problem with Dobby is that he wants to chew at the yarn while I am working. 




 





Happy Weekend.

    That is weird about the comments ... but I don't have a blog so I don't know. I appreciate your posting and putting up with things so that people like me can have something fun today. I enjoy your funnies even if I don't crochet.

    Another blog had this same spam - too bad you can't reverse it to crash their computer!

    We had the same thing; had to delete 10 comments from the same source and they all advertised the same thing.
    We've learned a lot about getting a cat into a carrier, like closing all of the doors.
    Also, the carrier that we use for Henry is weak and cheap, but I hate the beefy versions that we use for Da Boyz.

    Sorry that this coment thing is such a nuisance. Very disappointing.
    Good to see that Dobby has assumed the QA role without batting an eyelid.

It is Friday and in the liturgical calendar it is Good Friday. The Friday before Easter Sunday. Growing up this always meant church service in the afternoon, usually a long service with communion.  Dobby is doing well, I can't believe how quickly he has settled in and how comfortable he seems to be from his first days here. He will see the vet next week, so we will see what she says about him.  Doing his loaf impression on the bed.  Neon Lights from Big Twist. Nice bright primary colors.     This is actually my closet at the end of March. It is rather empty at the moment but I want to wait to buy when the company has a promo where they have a special on shipping for a set price for the entire order. Otherwise the cost of shipping is 10 percent of the value of the order and I plan to buy lots of yarn. I want to finish using the final three yarns on the right side.  Happy Weekend.  Happy Easter.

It has been a long week. Severe weather with thunderstorms and a nearby tornado. Over 5 inches of rain this week alone and overall this month double what we would normally get for the entire month. One fatality, he was struck by lightning on Wednesday night.  The guy was walking in a parking lot to his truck. Thankfully no damage here and also to none of my friends. Lots of flooding, especially streets.  Amazing to watch all the stupid drivers who drive through flooded streets. Then are dumbfounded when their car dies on them. Thousands of dollars in damage to get the car engine working and the car cleaned out too.  Still working on crochet projects for the time being. This one is Happy Rainbow yarn from Big Twist, bright pastel colors. Would make a great baby or kid blanket.  Dobby is doing well, he did not freak out with the storms this week. Also he branched out and didn't sleep on my bed a couple of nights. Maybe he did sleep there but just wasn't there when I wo...
