Small things

So, yes.

It snows here.
Mal is still very fond of the snow.
U has ball?
(I have child hood memories of putting fake icicles on some house like structure, but they are very fuzzy memories, so I will label them in St. Joes time period. Most things are fuzzy from there)

But now I have MY OWN REAL ONES.
First real accumulation of snow (and icicles)

And Mal enjoys her romp

Then the next one!

I will more than likely be tracking this fella,
(at the end of the window frame now, it's hard to see) until I get bored, break it off the house and pretend to have an ice spear of doom.
Or if it falls off in this STUPIDLY windy storm we are currently having. (But I'd rather have the wind than the 30 inches accumulation that some are getting, only slightly whiny)
Oliver, tho, stays primed in his kitty cannon.

I have a theory that the heat will build up behind him and he will gently pop out of it one day. Until then, he waits.
I has play.
Oliver apparently was never ever ever allowed outside, he is terrified of the big room without a ceiling that is very very cold. I've not had a cat like this before.

He is still very cute, and fluffy. I just today realized that he makes noises like Simon's Cat, but is much much more polite.
ALSO
I made a sweater!
Do you remember tiiiinnny bubbles?

I doooo! It came out lovely

As did Meg's wee baby!

Alternately I worried about it being too small, or too large. Turns out no troubles :)
....And I cannot resist
It all turned out well,

IN THE END.

Things that go ding

I was informed at Thursday's D&D game, that the only appropriate time to say "DING" is when your character levels.
I beg to differ, as demonstrated below, by my awesome radiator covers. (That Dad and I made a while ago, but I have not shared them with you yet, my faithful 3 readers)

er. Mostly ding
I'm not willing to take it off the radiator for the time it will require to putty, sand and paint it. I enjoy the extra heat and nightstand it gives me. Cosmetics can certainly wait until spring.
I've made all the other ones, but they are waiting for metal grate to be purchased or are...

Unaccessable for a portrait
There is a mildly good reason for the terrifying dining table, I have a ALMOST completed mud room, and the dust is spectacular. THAT will be the next post!
To say farewell for now
Doubtful Agent Booth and Doubtful Oliver confer...

yup, it's a mess in there..
