This week was all about the Moon
Man – Dr. M! Well, mostly, anyway…
Sunday,
November 8th
The
Diocesan Bishop visited our church so it was a big day! Did I take a picture of
him or his lovely wife? No! But I did get a picture of the cake – that’s our
stained glass window in the middle there. Cool! I also liked the shadow of my
hands on the cake. Ha!
My
daily walk. Pretty day!

Ohio fall…

I was going to do a 10 on 10
post, but this is the only picture I took.
Dr. M caught squirrels in their
two main states – zoom & squat.
Wednesday,
November 11th
Ohio fall…
Today Dr. M used this old
picture of one of his paintings as his Facebook cover photo. It’s one of my
favorites.
My daily walk – the season of
gazelling has begun. This summer I asked myself, “Self – why did you gazelle
all winter? You can handle a little cold & dark!” Tonight I responded to
that self, “But I can’t handle the wind!” Plus, I was sick again. Sigh.
Thursday,
November 12th
Ms. Pinky is now safely indoors. She
doesn’t seem too upset about it.
As I wrapped Dr. M’s presents (the 13th
is his birthday!) I was annoyed that I’d forgotten to make sure we had
appropriate gift wrap. So, yes, generic bag, Thomas the Train paper, and
Christmas paper. When I said something to him that evening he said that he
appreciated that I hadn’t taken Christ out of his birthday. #starbucksredcup

Happy birthday dear heart! The
wife of one of his students got him balloons & this crazy sheep. Love it!
(And I love that his students – and their spouses - love him.)
We went out for Mexican food.
Here’s the birthday boy with his birthday ‘rita.
Birthday moon!
Saturday,
November 14th
Out back.
As I said
on Facebook, first I dreamed that I was on a crocheted submarine.
Then later I dreamed that I accidentally tried to put one of my hair barrettes
in the computer slot instead of the camera chip (pictured here). When I finally
figured out why it wouldn't work I laughed so hard I couldn't breathe - woke
myself up laughing. Ha!
Square #1 of pattern #23. A few
notes: 1. Just one more pattern to go! 2. I ALWAYS (always) start with the
red/orange/magenta/yellow colors so it usually has a few errors in it as I sort
out the new pattern. This time (yes, the next to last time) I decided to start
with different colors. 3. You can probably tell, but this picture is
pre-blocking.
The moon! I couldn’t decide which
picture I like best.
Hope everyone has a great week!
Great moon shots. (heh-heh)
ReplyDeleteLove the Ohio fall and the fun birthday pics, and the birthday "lambie"
ReplyDeleteThose were awesome dreams. Isn't it great when you wake up laughing? That tree with the swing is so pretty. I just want to walk into that picture and swing for awhile. That birthday 'rita looks good. Happy day, Dr. M.
ReplyDeleteThat's a nice-looking margarita! Happy birthday again to Dr. M.!
ReplyDeleteI don't blame you for gazelling indoors during the winter. I can't hack it outdoors during the summer, so frequently it's the treadmill and elliptical.
Lovely autumnal photos. That's a pretty vivid dream. Lately, I've been waking myself up with nighttime hiccups. I think I'd rather laugh.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday to Dr. M! (Did I say that last week?) And what a funny dream about the barrette. Bizarre.
ReplyDeleteIt took me a while to figure out "gazelling" as a verb. At first I thought you meant jumping over snowdrifts!
Thank you! No, no snowdrifts...yet.
DeleteI always enjoy your week. LOL at the cake photograph.
ReplyDeleteI think the wrapping paper was quite appropriate. especially the Thomas the Train paper.
ReplyDeleteThomas the Train is entirely appropriate for me!
DeleteI can totally see me mistaking a barrette for a memory card on my bad days :)
ReplyDeleteI'm so impressed with the writing on that cake. Someone is good!
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday, Dr. M! Anyone who gets a lamb and a margarita on his birthday is all right in my book. Many more!
ReplyDeleteThose trees you've shown are great -- especially the big one above Dr.M's painting (which is also delightful). Are you getting any of the snow that's heading east? I've seen fresh snow in Iowa, Michigan and Wisconsin, so you might be in line. We've just got wind today -- so strong that my computer monitor is vibrating on the desk. I take it the thing's picking up building vibrations.
Oh, do I have something for you! A knitting song! I think you'll enjoy it.
