Posted under 39 things to do before you're 40
Before I begin…this is my 200th post. That’s a lot of wittering in 6 months…
Anyway…and I’m off! I’ve made a start on my 39 things to do before I’m 40 list. This afternoon I lay on my bed and quietly, and badly, learnt how to crochet. It wasn’t easy, or pretty, and I didn’t make a lot of progress if I’m honest. But there was definite hookyness going on. Ideally I’d have a photo to share but then Parker, the cat, started to ‘help’.
Here he is thinking about his technique…
…trying it on for size…how do I look?
…then he went in for the kill…
…faster than the speed of light…look at him go…KILL KILL KILL (the crochet)…
There, done it. Crochet…it’s lip smackin’ good..
crocheting birds are you? parker must be thrilled ;-) and maybe he’ll stop bringing the flapping ones inside…
haha. love the pics. my cat is a nut…woke me up this morning, making me think she wanted out, so should could steal the warm spot in the bed…
you got some great shot of the kill, too cute :)
he does look very pleased with himself in the end, doesnt he? :)
Ewwwwwww. Kitty spit.
Oh, what a cool Parker :-)
i suppose one forgives him because he’s so photogenic. those white whiskers coming out of the black fur are quite dashing. and if your crocheting is like mine, it might be for the best…
xox,

Haha this is just too cute!!
Yea for you, jumping right in and teaching yourself crochet! Like your candy stripe yarn too! Very fun. Soon you’ll be clicking along not having to concentrate on your hands and you’ll be able to shoo Parker away faster than he can pounce. I think he just needs his own catnip filled crocheted birdie to chase around! I empathize with the birdie present…my sabrinia has slowed her hunting way down since she’s aging. Yea!
I can’t believe that you have already written 200 posts, Spud. You really don’t do things by halves.
I have been blogging for two years and STILL haven’t written 200 posts.
About the cat: since I’m reading these backwards, I already know about the awful thing that the evil one deposited in your boot.
