Amigurumi Octopus!

I am in the middle of making an Amigurumi Octopus. So far I have the head/body done. Now I have to make 8 tentacles. Does anyone have a suggestion for a name for this Octopus?

Guide Horses

I was watching t.v. Thursday morning and they had a show on about miniature guide horses for the blind. They said that they work just as well as dogs. Here is a link to the Guide Horse Foundation, it contains a lot of interesting information: http://www.guidehorse.org/
They have a lot of pictures of the horsing working with their owners.
When I was in high school, for about a week I volunteered at a place that trains guide dogs. I think that this place would be just as much fun.

Hungry!

I am so hungry, but I can't seem to get away from the computer! I am so addicted to the internet. Does anyone else have this problem? Do you see this as a problem? My stomach is growling, but I just keep cruising the internet. I have met lot's of nice people online. My other problem is I am not a big fan of cooking. I mainly make pasta dishes from boxes. I suppose I will peel myself away from the computer and see if I can find anything to eat.

Very cool Etsy shop!

Check out UniqueGrabs! They are a very cool Etsy shop. They sell beautiful greeting cards and tags for all occasions. They are so nice too. They have some of my dishcloths featured as an item that would go good with this mother's day card in their shop. Please look at this wonderful shop!

Mary Jane Socks

I found the cutiest pattern in Creative Knitting magazine for Mary Jane Socks for babies. I am checking my yarn stash so I can start making them either tonight or tomorrow. They are to precious :) I might have to make a pair to give to my niece. If they turn out I will put a pair up on Etsy.

Ticks!

I didn't realize that tick season had started until I had to pull about a dozen ticks off one of our cats :( I felt so bad for her. I don't know how she got so many ticks on her. None of our other cats have any ticks on them. Now I am paranoid that I have ticks on me. I keep feeling my head and hair to see if their is anything in it. It is so creepy! I am going to have to get tick spray tomorrow, to keep all of our animals safe. I hate ticks they are so creepy. Normally bugs don't bother me, but ticks really freak me out.

Biggest Loser!

Finally a woman won the Biggest Loser competition! It is about time. I have been waiting for this since the beginning and started to think maybe it was never going to happen. I can't believe how much everyone lost, it is so amazing. They should all be proud of themselves and feel like winners. Go Women!
