KNITTING GAL

March 27, 2008

Missed Dogs on Thursday again!


Oliver is not too happy with me. I have again gone dogless on Thursday. I have some cute pics, but I am at work and can not access them! All I have is this one I used before. Oh well it will have to do. (Work always interferes with everything!) I am sorry to all the Doggie friends and will get him out here for next week.


I finally figured out how to keep updated on every ones blog without checking them all individually. I am using Google reader and it is very easy. I tried Blog Bot, but it didn't seem to work for me. I am not a star pupil with the rss feeds and stuff like that. I need someone to do the work for me and all I have to do is type. I find that I get so far with something and then a curtain comes down and that is all I will get. It happens whenever numbers or logic is involved. I think that is why my knitting isn't really the top. I can follow directions and I get things pretty well after a couple of times, but don't ask me to write a pattern or figure out a change in gauge or yarn. Ugh! I stick to what I know.
Everyone have a great weekend and I will be posting some pictures of two little sweaters I am working on for twins that are coming very soon. Take care.

That's a cute pic of Oliver!! Looks like a real sweetheart.

Grover and I think Oliver always looks good. And, I completely understand the DOT issues. That, winter and darkness make it even harder.

Oh Oliver, Frisky and I have been bad about DOT too... You doggies just keep us too busy!

Any picture of Oliver is a good picture. Glad you found Google Reader...I use that and Bloglines and it does save ALOT of time. I'm not sure I'd still be reading blogs if I had to go to each one individually! (well, I probably would, it's part of my sanity!).

Oliver is so sweet! Don't you just want to give him kisses all the time? I'm a big fan of Google Reader. I know I wouldn't be able to keep up with everyone's blogs without it.

Google Reader works great. I'm glad I discovered it early in my blogging career. I also took all of the DOT blogs and put them into a separate account at Bloglines. Makes it easier to just look at the ones that have new entries since last week.

Even if you've used it before, it's a nice photo of Oliver.

hmm, I like the sound of google reader. I have no idea what it is but I will go investigate. :)

Awe what a cute picture!! Abby and Jack have not gotten that close to my yarn. :)


I use Reader and it can get stressful if you keep up with too many blogs. :) I do love it though!!

Hello, friend!

I'm a bit behind on my blog reading, but wanted to say THANK YOU for the beautiful link on your sidebar to my shop! What an honor!

Will you be going to Stitches East in November? If yes, I hope to meet you there!
