One Long Cat

This is Freddy, my office cat, and as you can see he's one long cat.  He lays like this a lot and it always cracks me up.  Freddy is one ornery boy and is always into something...including the trash cans.  Yep, he will tip over the trash cans and shred paper.  But he's so cute you can't stay mad at him too long.

A New Year

Well 2011 is gone and 2012 is here.  I didn't do too good on my reading last year.  I had wanted to read 50 books but only read 36.  Sadly, I just haven't been in the mood to read lately.  I haven't read a book in about two months!  But that is about to change cause I just bought Julie Klassen's newest book, The Maid of Fairbourne Hall.   So excited to read this..I absolutely love all of Julie Klassen's books.  So hopefully that will help me get back into the reading mood. 

Since I haven't been reading lately I have been knitting like crazy and have set some knitting goals this year.  I've joined the Beekeeper's Quilt 365 on Flickr....you take a picture everyday to chronicle your progress on the Beekeeper's Quilt.  Here's a picture of the quilt I'm working on for my cats:

  So in case your wondering what the Beekeeper's Quilt is you can see it's knitted hexagons (hexipuffs) knitted and then sewed together. :)  Besides taking a daily picture I also want to knit one hexipuff a day.  So far, I'm on track.
