Yep. Another pink mohair hat. This one I added a little basket- weave. That’s just 4 knits, 4 purls done in 6 rows then reversing the order. I did the pattern 3 times. I like how it turned out. For more details the check out my previous hat.

Just a couple pictures or more if they show up well. I’m writing this on Monday and there is going to be rain by this afternoon, so the wind is blowing like crazy. I love it. The smoke level is low and hopefully the fires will die down a bit with the rain. One can only hope. I feel so badly for the people who are much more impacted by these fires that we are.
Okay, let me share these Fall pics.
This was a couple of days ago. A few yellow leaves on the tree and mesquite bush, a stray leaf on the ground here and there.
Now from Monday before the rain, which at this point I am still hoping for.
This morning as I was taking the picture the wind blew so hard a couple boxes left their area near the trash and landed in the driveway. Kali had to investigate this new part of the driveway. A lot more leaves on the ground now. But there are still green leaves here and there.
Happy Autumn, everyone!
Such a sweet memory for my friend, Willow.

Todayโs subject: The Pets in My Life.
When I was a little girl I was frightened of dogs. My mum and Dad decided to get me a dog for Christmas. The dog arrived on Christmas Eve after I had gone to bed. Somehow the whole family managed to keep it a secret from me.
As I said the dog arrived at Christmas and Dad being Dad and an Irish Catholic
Steve was a beautiful dog, red fox in colour with a white chest and a couple of socks. He was a Hienz fifty seven, a mixed breedโฆ

This is the love I want to see for our fellow humans.
This came across my email today. I had to share after I cleared my tears.
A MUST read! A great story.
It is 20 years since 9/11 and here is a wonderful story about that terrible day.
Jerry Brown Delta Flight 15โฆ (true story)Here is an amazing story from a flight attendant on Delta Flight 15, written following 9-11:
On the morning of Tuesday, September 11, we were about 5 hours out of Frankfurt, flying over the North Atlantic. All of a sudden the curtains parted and I was told to go to the cockpit, immediately, to see the captain. As soon as I got there I noticed that the crew had that โAll Businessโ look on their faces.
The captain handed me a printed message. It was from Deltaโs main office in Atlanta and simply read, โAll airways over the Continental United States are closed to commercial air trafficโฆ

I’m nearly finished with the fold-up brim of another hat on the KB Flexee fine-gauge loom.
I wanted to do a longer blog but I still need to play recorders before bed.
I hope you all had a good, thought-filled Labor Day. The seeming end of summer. Usually, I get to this point kicking and screaming. I usually love summer the most. But this year I can’t wait for rain and snow and clean air.
Another look at pins.

One of my sisters was a fashion designer in heriio working days . Of course she worked her way up but designer she was and she traveled the world, New York, Hong Kong, China, Lyon, Paris, Milan, Belfast, London. When I was a little girl I would put a coloured pin in the map to plot her progress. She always looked like a fashion plate to me, she still does, thereโs a kind of elegance about her that hard to pin down.
As bright as a new pin that was always her. Even now with her fingers bent and gnarled by arthritis she is as sharp asโฆ

When ever I am too busy to read through all the posts of the bloggers I follow, I save them to read later and comment on them. You can say I put a pin in it and come back to it later.
Keeping something on hold, to return to it later takes the stress out of the situation. We donโt need to do it right now. We can address the issue later when we have more time or are mentally more relaxed.
I did the same with the prompt for this post, I put a pin in it and saved it to write today.

An exercise in this book was inspiring today. The section is about procrastination and perfection and how these things stop the creative process. The instructions were to write five sentences about a superhero and a cat stuck in a burning building.
Here are my five.
- Help my cat is left in my house!
- Never fear Wonder Crone is here!
- An appoggiatura, a leap and a step into the room.
- Frodo won’t go.
- Towel and soft talk and fly to the ground handing Frodo to her mom.
Frodo is my daughter’s cat who is afraid of me. Just for clarification.
Now the thing I have to do is rewrite this to perfection. Stay tuned. Maybe by next Wednesday I’ll have a better story.
Now is is the superhero I saw on Grey’s Anatomy (yes, I’m bingeing it again)
For future reference post cataract surgery…
Ready for a surprise?
The title of this post contains two links. The link on the first part of the text is to the post itself; this is quite normal. However, thereโs a second link at the end, on the bracketed text, that should take you to the โcaveatsโ section below. (Iโm assuming that youโre reading this in a standard web browser, not in the WordPress Reader.)
Letโs start with the caveats
- Things change. This works today; it may not work tomorrow.
- Iโm referring here to WordPress.com posts/ pages created in the โblock editorโ.
- Some of this is theme-dependent; Iโve tested on Twenty Ten, Reddle & Colinear.
- How the link is rendered will be device/ browser/ theme dependent.
- Iโve not found a way to reliably highlight such links: they may be mystery links.
- If the default link on a title is to the post itself, overriding that may causeโฆ
