I am an Official Spokesmonkey!!!
Today’s Fortune: You will soon be the center of attention. Boy, that is one true fortune! Last Saturday, me and Mom went down to Norman, Oklahoma to meet my Auntie Tracy. Auntie Tracy lives in Tulsa, and she drove down so she and Mom could celebrate their belated birthdays together. Where did they decide to meet? A yarn store, of course. Like Mom, Auntie Tracy loves to knit. Mom told Auntie Tracy that she wanted to visit L & B Yarn Co., because she had only been there once, and Dad was waiting in the car so she didn’t get…

To Dye For. . .
Today’s Fortune: Your flair for the creative takes an important place in your life. I guess that fortune is right, but I think my flair for fun takes a more important place in my life. I wish I would get some fortunes about fun instead of creativity. We have been creative enough for a while. Last week, Mom was finishing up projects for Ravelympics. She got some nice yarn from our friend Galeu for Christmas. Galeu is my Auntie Gale, and she lives in California. A lot of my Aunties live in California. I hope I can go see them…

Coming Unraveled!!!
Today’s Fortune: Your artistic talents win the approval and applause of others. This is so true. Dharma and I have been helping Mom compete in the Ravelympics! Ravelympics is just like the Olympics, only with yarn. And no snow. Ravelympics is taking place on Ravelry. That is Mom’s favorite place to hang out. The Ravelympics started at the same time as the Olympics, and they will have their closing ceremonies tonight. They have all kinds of events that you can compete in. Mom decided to enter the Aerial Unwind, Downhill Dying, and WIPs Dancing events. I asked if I could…

A Christmas Dress for Lexi….
Today’s Fortune: A simple kindness today will bring you great reward. I sure hope my fortune is right because I am being extra nice to Mom today. She has been wanting to blog about knitting ever since we got back from North Carolina, so I told her I would do it for her. That is mostly because when Mom blogs about knitting, it is really boring, and I don’t want people to go to sleep while they are reading my blog. While we were in North Carolina, Mom knitted a baby dress for our grandbaby, Lexi. This is what it…

Steeped in History…..
Today’s Fortune: Someone you know is waiting for your praise. This fortune must be talking about Mom. I should probably tell her what a good job she is doing packing the suitcase for our trip to Omaha. We will leave tomorrow morning, very early. We have something called a “layover” in Dallas. That means that we have to sit in the airport for a long time. We will not get to Omaha until 3:00 tomorrow afternoon. Mom says we could drive to Omaha faster than we will get there flying. But then she couldn’t knit on the way there. We…

Ready for Tractor Travels!!
Today’s Fortune: Your curious nature will take you someplace special. Wow! This fortune was right on the money! Yesterday, my curious nature (and my Mom) took us to Wal-Mart. We had to get my brother’s oil changed in his car. He is letting us drive it to Ashevegas, which is where my curious nature will take us tomorrow. That way, we don’t have to go all the way back to the airport to rent a car. That will save us lots of time. His car is fun to ride in, but it is a long way to Ashevegas. I think…

I know a secret!!!
Today’s Fortune: In silence man can most readily preserve his integrity. I’m not sure what that means. I think it probably means I should be quiet. Which I am, but it is hard to do, because I know a secret!! Mom has a “Super Secret Swap” going on with some of her friends on Ravelry. Ravelry is an online community of people who knit and crochet, and they show pictures of the neat stuff they make and they also make good friends with each other in different groups. Mom is in several groups, but one of her very favorites is…
