One Week after Zoe

I turned over Zoe to her owner like a responsible adult. I missed her but it was the right thing to do. Today, she was back. I took care of her until Ed got home. She got out but came right back to my door. Well, she got out again and ran up the street. We looked for her but she was gone. Later a couple came walking down the street and had Zoe. We pointed out her home and they turned her over to them. A bit over an hour later, she was barking at my door. I am torn as to what to do. She was almost hit by 3 cars today. I was screaming trying to get her out of the street. I feel like I care more about her than her owners care.
Moral dilemma.
What would you do?

One Day with Zoe.

On our way to pick up dinner Thursday night, the sweetest dog was spotted running amuck in my neighborhood. She was sweet and friendly and when I opened my car door, she hopped inside and settled down for the ride. I tried to contact our Animal control, but they had all gone home and I left my number. This sweet pup was loving, trained and had no identification. We picked up dinner and off we went back home. She was introduced to our pets and got a very cold reception. My Lexy does not play well with others. After we ate (she loves french fries) we let her out of the kitchen holding room and she became the best lap dog ever. Ed & I loved having her here and she seemed to like us as well. She slept on the bed with us and was a perfect companion. Lexy still did not like her...she slept on the floor as usual.
The next day, no call came in from Animal Control so we put out fliers. Since one of them went right out in the owner's yard, we quickly received a call and were told her name was Zoe. We had spent all night trying out possible names and never got to the Z's. She was so excited to find out we knew her name. The owners came a few hours later and our sweet Zoe was gone. She had slept in Ed's lap all afternoon and they both enjoyed a long nap! We miss you Zoe. Visit anytime!

Alex's sock

I finally finished the first of Alex's socks!!!! I cannot wait to cast on sock #2 so this one will not be orphaned!!! Isn't it cute????? I sure hope it fits! If not he can save it for his kid. The Yarn is Baby Bee "Sweet Delight Baby" in Baby Camo. I bought my skein at Hobby Lobby.
I hope you like it as I had a lot of fun making it. Let me know what you think.

Kendall's Daisy Hat

I finally finished the hat I designed. *pat on my back* It is a gift to Kendall born out of no project on Yarn Shop night. I borrowed a crochet hook and bought some clearance yarn and just started to crochet. The pictures are not so good for inside pix, but the hat is a light lavender. It is made of a soft yarn for which I cannot remember the name of right now. Nice huh? It is late and I just suffered some serious computer issues. Maybe I will write out the pattern some day and offer it up for anyone who might read this. I suspect no one does, but I do a lot of talking to myself anyway so....what the hey...lol! I hope Kendall loves it as much as I loved making it for her.
Blessings and peace to you always!


PS.......the yarn is Sirdar "Snuggly" DK

Teach an Old Blog New Tricks

I have been back from vacation for a while but just have not taken the time to write in my blog. I have started a pair of socks for my grandson, made a hat for my niece, and even made a holder for my MP3 player. I finished my project bag made from the brown Sensao yarn. Will get you a picture of all soon. The dishrag Tag is finished. I knitted mine in 3 &1/2 hrs which made me very proud. My team did not win, but we had a lot of fun. The picture today is of the Rocky Mnts in the Estes Park area. We had so much fun. If I could afford to live in the high country, I would move today. I don't mind the thin air or the heights. Matter of fact my soul lives in the mountains. My second image is an Aspen Eye. For some reason, many of the knots on an Aspen tree look like eyes. Creepy huh? I found them to be beautiful and as if the wood fairies were watching out for us.
There will be more updates as I can get to them. Blessings to you all and may peace guide your actions always.
