what a day

I just found out Naughty Ned was bitten by another cat and has no broken bones like we thought he had. He will be home tomorrow.
Getting to knitting today was a bit of a battle as my regular driver was hung over meaning I had to catch the bus. Not an easy thing to do from where I live on a weekend. I ran nearly all the way down as I didn't prepare myself early enough and spent far too much time gardening (even though that was rather pleasant). Anyway the bus was late and I realized I had no needles so quickly dropped into the Spotlight picked a few pairs and marched off quickly to Jam Packed.
Everyone looked so happy I couldn't bare to bring anyone down plus I'm so worn out by the last few days I just wanted to forget for a while.
I was going to start on 'The Somewhat Cowl' but I forgot to pack the ball yarn and only took the skeins. So I sat there most of the time winding the yarn into a ball until it tangled!
But it was all good and I enjoyed the company and it was a nice feeling to have Esther's little baby girl there all snug like a little pea in her mums pouch. (sounds like a kangaroo)
Before all this crap happened it was my niece Akira's 21st birthday and my sister's __ birthday

and I made them these...
