The morning glories on the fence have started to bloom.
We might get tomatoes soon. We are having a drought so the pots need to be watered.
Things are not as bushy as they were last year.
The two main men in my life left on an adventure, this morning. They are off exploring Vancouver Island. Meanwhile, I have the house to myself, and I can think of lots of things to do but too many of them sound like work.
I have finished 3 of the requested 6 baby socks. I also started the second sock of the July/August socks.
I made the smaller adventurer a pair of cargo shorts to take with him.
Four pockets!
It was the cats' Gotcha Day. They got their favourite chicken to celebrate their third year with us.
Mudd is looking for his chicken, while Emme is chilling under her chair in the sun room.
We said good bye to our Doug Dog . He has been my big goofy companion for nearly 11 years. The house feels very empty without him.
A huge hole where Doug was. XXXX No matter how long, it does not ever seem enough. The Island, cargo shorts will be perfect, Josh so enjoyed it there about this time last year.And it was hot. Enjoy time alone, work can wait.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry about Doug Dog, he was a great friend. Your menfolk will enjoy their time on Vancouver Island - we certainly have, more than once - and you and the kitties can enjoy peace and quiet.
ReplyDeleteMy favourite colour of Morning Glory and it looks like a nice crop of tomatoes. Socks and shorts looking good. Sorry about Doug. xx
ReplyDeleteDear Kate, I am sorry for your loss. Doug was such a sweet boy and having met and known him. He was special. Sending you hugs 🤗 and love. Saying goodbye to our family is one of the hardest things we have to do. Think of you.
ReplyDeleteSorry about Doug Dog's passing; it's hard to lose a furry friend.
ReplyDeleteSo very sorry about Doug...we have a special kind of love for them. Meanwhile, you've been busy with the wonderful knitting. Wish I knew how to cast on socks. One of these days I'm going to conquer that! And how clever to sew clothes...so admire that too.Happy Stitching from me!
ReplyDeleteKate alone at home... I wish you wonderful crafting and relaxation.
ReplyDeleteThe pants are great with the four pockets.
And the baby socks are absolutely cute.
I'm so sorry you had to say goodbye to your dog. What a small consolation that Mudd and Emme are in the house.
Hugs to you.
