Currently, I am doing what every proud American should be doing:
crocheting a purse and avoiding the media by watching “The Aristocats” with my 4 fuzzy children
I have no desire to watch the hype tonight over who won — I’m wanting it to be a (hopefully pleasant) surprise when I wake up tomorrow morning.
Update: My curiousity got the better of me so I’m watching to see how the South Dakota Senate race is doing. Daschle had better win, darn it!
I carved 6 of the 7 pumpkins from the garden today. (The 7th was drawn on with a Sharpie pen.) I made 4 “cat-o-lanterns”, 1 with crosses, and 1 with a kitty silhouette cut out of it. (Pictures will be posted tomorrow night.) While I was doing this, I had some “help”.
Edda making sure that the pumpkins are acceptable to carve.
Freya picking her pumpkin before it was washed.
Freya deciding that she would conquer the pumpkin pen for her own territory.
Edda making sure the pumpkins were clean.
Edda choosing her pumpkin and making sure I had the necessary tools to carve it.
Mike, that will be 3 rosaries for your transgression as well as some time in purgatory.
My mother’s kitten returned about 4:00 this morning. No injuries, no explanation, and a coat full of burrs. He is royally grounded but Mom and Dad are happy to have him back.
One of my mom’s kittens is lost (didn’t come in last night) and we’re currently under flood warning with several streets underwater.
This is gonna be a fun day….
Boston just kicked the crap out of St. Louis, beating them 3-0 to win the World Series in 4 straight games.
when you are drafted to play for Midweek Advent services and you start figuring out hymn arrangements you can compose for your prelude, offertory, and postlude.
(I spent my healthy walk today dissecting “O Come O Come Emmanuel”.)
