Nothing Much

But a post, none the less.

Wonderful Guy spent two days last week in Denver, and will be there all this week. Le weekend was spent catching up and getting ready.

A few other things were accomplished. Taxes were started. The ubiquitous slippers were finished, started, finished, started... A couple of trips were made to the supposed yarn sale to find the garage door closed. (pooh!)

This week I am in charge of everything, though.  Feeding the fish.  Dosing the dog. Bringing in the trash bin. Sorting mail.  I seriously hope it doesn't snow! Other than that, I feel I am up to the task.

I do get to feeling a little hinky when I find myself talking to Best Dog Ever in the evening.  And realize, when I hear my voice, that is the first 'person' I have spoken to all night.  Depending on my days at work?  Sometimes it's all day.

I subscribed to Interweave Knits this weekend.  And thanks for all the input about the cardi patterns.  Especially Mary...who added ANOTHER to my list.

Check out Audrey in Unst!

So, yes, the clan is preparing to gather the end of the month in Desert Crazy Town for Middle Daughter's tying of the nuptial knot. All the Offspring will be there, except for Only Step Son.  All my Sibs will be gathered, and we always have a really good time together. My plan was to travel to Philly from Denver, but instead, I will go to west before I go east.  In fact, Eldest Daughter & ManFriend, Precious Niece, DSis, and I will all be heading east together on the same day, but not on all the same flight.  Alas.  I will be alone on my plane, while they will be together.

All alone.
In the cold.
And the dark.
Alone.
In the rain.

I am sure they will start the Philly party without me.

I am a bit confused about your comings and goings ... I assume you're heading to Philly directly from Sin City?

Have a great time!!!

P.S. I'm on my own a lot when RIck travels. I talk a lot to the dogs and cats. Dinner are tough for one. After a few days I am not minding so much and housework goes down the tubes until a few hours before he is expected back again.

Well, I still like Tempest the best, but Audrey is now my second choice.
We are having more rain, so you will probably have more snow in a day or two - but as you point out, your scoobie-roo will be just fine.
You will be all alone on your flight to Philly, whereas we will be together, but apart. I doubt we will be seated together, so we might as well be flying alone. In the rain. In the dark... but at least you will get free airline food! And, you will have someone to meet you at the airport!

But can the party really be considered to have started before you get there? I think not.

P.S. For me it's a vacation when the Engineer's on the road and I talk to the kittehs regardless of whether he's home or gone.

    ...to my humble effort. Thanks for taking the time to stop by, and I hope you find something mildly interesting, slightly amusing, barely creative, or at the very least, not too terribly trite.
