The Los Angeles City Council setup a website asking for donations to help cover the cost of the Jackson funeral. Huh? Bill the estate, which, when all is said and done will come out in the black.

I was in the upstairs living room yesterday - having just fed the cats minutes before – and from behind me comes this gut wrenching puking sound. Morgan of course, but…guess where she decided to deposit her upchuck? Right on that nicely ironed stack of scrap material waiting to be cut into squares! Eeww!

It was late by the time I got to bed last night. After dinner I played with two types of trim for the shawl. Which one do you like the best – just realize when looking at the pictures that the shawl and trim samples are not yet blocked.

The first is a knitted corkscrew and the second is something called Sugar Drops
