Wednesday: raking

Today was busy at work, which was very nice.

After work I raked. It turns out that our pine tree is loosing it's needles. It's worse that normal leaves, but I also find them more satisfying than normal leaves. They completely coat the grass, changing it from green to yellow. So every time I do one rake I get a lot of pine needles, but since they are so thin about half of them just pass right through the rake. But the grass looks so different every time you do a rake it. And even when you can't tell there are a lot of needles you still get a lot of needles.

Since it is Wednesday I worked on the quilt, although not as much as most Wednesdays. I did manage to get all the pieces cut out though! Yay!

Tuesday: Small group

Today was a rather good day. I got a bunch of work today, which was exciting. Then we were having a potluck at our house, so Ben and I cleaned the house. I love having a clean house. Then people came over and brought really good food. And we played Taboo. And now I'm finally checking my e-mail and such and have cold toes. My blanket is really close but I'm also feeling tired and therefore too lazy to get it.

Monday: blanket

Today I decided to get my computer blanket out because I was a little cool. Well, Flurry was showing interest in being on it so I took it off my shoulders and lowered it so she could have some. She ended up going on the wrong side and being under the blanket.

After a bit she realized that wasn't the most comfortable side of the blanket and went on the top. Awesome, the cat is by me! However, my fingers are getting cold because I don't have the whole blanket now. :( Guess I love the Flurr-ball.
Yeah, it was a rather slow day. I worked on my program most of the day so that I could get a trial version out to a few people.

Sunday

Today was a pretty normal Sunday. Ben played drums in church, so I had time to do lots of errands. Oh joy. But they're done, so that's good. We came home, I took a nap, worked on the quilt, did some chores, etc.

I've been taking pictures of Flurry laying around for about a month.

Saturday: applesauce

Today I made applesause. I've never made it before, but the apples we had were a little soft for our liking...they seemed perfect for applesauce.

It turned out really well and was fairly easy. The hardest part was prepping the apples because they were all rather small and therefore the apple to work ratio was rather low.

We also did our first raking of the season.

Friday: vet and blogs

I'm tired and kind of want to take a nap, but am afraid we will go eat soon...

Flurry had the privalege of going to the vet today. She would have been satisfied to not have this privilage. She got in her carrier happily as normal. On the way there she reminded me that she didn't really like to be in the car. Once we got outside the vet she started hissing. However, since she was in the carrier she had no choice but to go inside. She did however have the choice to let me know she wasn't happy and pretty much hissed or growled for the next 40 minutes as the time for our appointment came and went. She wasn't happy for the vet and when the exam was done the vet said "you can't jump off the table." So she jumped off the table. We quickly put the carrier back together and she happily went inside. After that she only hissed once in a while. Then we went to the car and she was very happy to be in the car driving home.

(Side question...she is significantly worse that this vet than any other vet and they are always running late. Do we try a different vet that is farther away? Or figure that all vets aren't going to be great so at least this one is close.)

In other news, two friends have started blogs! Yay! I now have a higher chance of having something to read when I click the refresh button. It is so sad when the most recent one was last updated over a day ago.

Thursday: batteries

Life is so much better when your keyboard batteries aren't dying. My healing ability significantly increased when every button I pushed resulted in a heal instead of every other.

Hmm, what else...I made a cool wire sculpture/finger toy today. It's yellow wire with one blue wire. The day went pretty quickly, so that was nice too. And tomorrow is only about a half day!
