Sign ups, eh? Before or after makes little difference to me. It’s just more time to put those pennies in the jar if it’s earlier.

As for Christmas trees and Cats, Paddy LOVES LOVES LOVES the tree. He comes downstairs every morning and “talks” to the tree. He’s pretty good about leaving it alone otherwise, aside from making sure there’s enough water and sitting under it, keeping “his” sheep company. It’s the fuzzy things and the fake greens we have to worry about.

He loves fuzzy things, including sheep made from natural roving and Santa’s with fuzz beards, and will kidnap them from anywhere he can get them and drag them around the house. He actually loved a sheep to death a few years ago.

And the fake greens, the ones that look really real but are made out of paper or something? He eats those. Will drag them off and just eat them. Makes life interesting.

But we love Christmas! He’s getting ready for his job as bow inspector now.

As a kid we had a cat that climbed right the center of an artificial tree, it was the funniest ever. I vote for after the holidays for the sign up.

The sign is GREAT!!!! I wish I could come visit, but will have to make do with virtual visits. Funny about Gracie. We got our tree yesterday, and our kitten (Calvin) is still trying to figure it out. We’re waiting to decorate it to see if it loses some of it’s appeal before then. We’ll see if it’s still standing tonight.

My cats never went so far as to climb the tree, but every morning when I came into the living room, there’d be at least three ornaments on the floor. (I’m grateful that they at least didn’t drag them into their food dish.) Between them and my son, I ended up getting the energy to do the tree maybe once every two years.

Well, we had snow Saturday and again today up here in the high country of Arizona so that beef stew recipe is lookin’ mighty good. Guess I will have to go out and get the ingredients tomorrow.

New colors of CTH…..YIKES, I am drooling over that AND the new Smooshy colors.

As for the spring fling…where, when, and WHEEEEEE! Yes, where do I sign?

I didn’t do a RAK..but I received one this week. Thursday went to Starbucks to knit. my VW Beetle has been in the shop for 10 days, can’t figure out what the problem is so I was blue. I seen a man, Charlie who I knew from the mall, his wife & he use to walk there. He bought me a latte. I told him about my day so he really brightened it up. RAK’s are out there…just keep your eyes & heart open.

I’m finally able to get to TLE website on Sunday afternoon (some funkiness with my internet connection all weekend – including Google, too – I finally figured out that unplugging all my computer connections and rebooting helped and that rebooting alone won’t work – it was very upsetting not to be able to look at TLE, FPS!!)

Well, I would probably vote for AFTER simply because I do usually get $$ as a Christmas gift and that would be money well spent to go to the Spring Fling. That being said, it won’t stop me from signing up BEFORE should that be the majority… : )

And, I just love the sign…and look forward to checking out sneak-ups. I’ve been “good” for a while and may just need to make at least one more pre-Christmas purchase… : )

First, another great big thanks to you and my secret RAK donator!!! Second, I vote for after.

I cannot wait to see the CTH colorways!!! It’s one of my favorite yarns to buy from here, the colors are always so lovely. To have super special ones is even better.
