Working On Christmas....

Claudia, over at Mockingbird Hill Cottage http://mockingbirdhillcottage.blogspot.com/2010/11/new-addiction.html has been crocheting what she calls Obsession Scarves...Now I am off on another tangent. I had to try one. She is right. They are addictive and create obsessive behaviour. I crocheted one and now want to do more.... Go look at hers. They are much prettier than my first try. Very colorful!

Of course Tessie is complaining that it is too big...Does this mean it is going to turn into a small obsession? I hope not.

When I was about half way through Mookie left his favorite place, perched over my left shoulder watching me. I paid no attention for a while. He had moved to his pink flannel blanket beside me...

I finally looked down and this is what I saw.

He had the band from the yarn around his face. I did NOT put it there. He did it himself and seemed to be very happy with his new muzzle. He patiently waited for me to go get the camera from the computer room and posed nicely when I returned.

Sometimes I think that he is a bigger ham than Tessie is, when it comes to cameras.


I just ignored him and he decided, after a bit that if he wanted to walk anywhere and see where he was going, he was going to have to loose the nose guard.

Meanwhile, back at the ranch...house...Mid-century modern, that is, Tessie and Zar put up the Christmas tree that I found at Lowe's this morning. It is much more sparkly than the old aluminum trees, but exactly what the room needed....Added advantage? No decorating needed.

Since the perpetual party is still going on from Halloween, nobody even noticed when they slipped in and put it in the corner....

Now that's what I call a special event! Party on, Dudes!!

See you tomorrow.

Mookie is just too cute! Cats do the most crazy things! I think maybe they are just trying to get attention? He sure got mine!
I wish I could crochet. I've tried it and knitting but can't seem to get it. I made a ripple afghan a LONG time ago but that's the only thing I've ever done. I wish I could make some mini blankets or even pot holders. LOL Your scarf is beautiful! Hats off to you!
