Mo Kitty

Mo likes to sit at the window and check out the goings-on in the neighborhood. When she was smaller, she tended to sit or lay on the sill. Now that she's too big for that, she likes to sit like this.

Is it just me or does she make you think of a meerkat?

It's all well and good, except for when she goes batshit for no apparent reason. Like she did yesterday morning at about 6am.

Speaking of 6am, that's when I have to get up tomorrow (and possibly Tuesday as well). Can we say 'Suckfest Extreme'? I have to work inventory, and it's naturally on day shift. Yes, I'm going to whine about it for a little bit longer. The only up to this is that I've only got about 4 weeks left of the year to work. I'm taking, more or less, the last two weeks of December for the rest of my vacation time.

On the knitting front, I've finished a scarf. And a matching bag. Both for my 13 y/o niece. The scarf is the Zig Zag Scarf by Lion Brand. The bag is the Small Diagonally Knit Bag by Barbara Breiter.

The scarf took me a few days, but lump together the time and it's only about 3-4 hours to do. The bag is 2-3 hours, not including lining. I included lining. Yes, I've gone insane.
