Saturday's Critters ~ February 10, 2018

Gift from a friend.  A blue glass bird. I love it!

A friendly old dog patiently waiting for his master at the Park's canteen.

A small ant working hard to climb to the top.

An energetic dog fetching ball.

A black fly enjoying the pretty petals.  I don't know if black flies eat nectar like bees do.

(It will be easier to see the ant and the fly if you click on the photos to enlarge them).

I've been busy crocheting another afghan.

My cousin who lives in Edmonton will visit briefly in about 2 weeks. 

I want to gift her with an afghan for her 60th birthday.

I will unveil new afghans soon.

I also have to get started on making some clothing. I began cutting out the fabric a few weeks ago but have much more to do. I also need to return some clothing I bought without trying them on.

The store is not so far away so that will be good exercise.

I'm hoping to do a little reading, cleaning, etc.

I hope you are all enjoying your weekend.

The Skies Were Blue Today

The sky is the daily bread of the eyes.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

The sky was blue today,

I wanted to go out and play

I took my good camera with me but forgot the memory card in my computer!

Thank goodness for phone cameras.

I snapped these few pics on the way to meet a friend I haven't seen for long.
We exchanged Christmas gifts. Yes, you read that right.
We don't get together so often but we pray for one another a lot.
She gave me a wonderful book on alternative health remedies.  She also gave me a pretty glass bird which had a mottled blue colour inside.
I will try to take a picture and add it here later. The gifts were perfect.

I gave her a few hand knitted dishcloths in her favourite colour (variegated yarn in red)
and a personal alarm device.  The latter she can can use when she is travelling alone at night from her ministry at the old folks home.
