My Beloved (founder of www.kalarhythms.org (ok so it’s ANOTHER shameless plug)) got some green seedless grapes at the grocery store yesterday.  And boooooy are they good.  Mmmmm.  It’s a perfect little snack.  They are good frozen, cold, warm or pressed into juice.  And these grapes are tight and juicy and sweet.

Yesterday on the way home Mom & Dad Goose weren’t home.  I won’t see them over the weekend.

I didn’t realize that it would be so hard to choose a look for my blog. Wordpress has something like 1,600 themes to choose from.  There isn’t any with cows or koi so those 2 were out.  At least none that I could find.  I managed to narrow down the list to 4.  Granted I didn’t look at every single last theme.  There were criteria that was important to me.

  • Cat Sitting on a Wall
  • Sticky Notes
  • Translucent Fluidity
  • YAAARR!! Tis Me Blog!

But how do I choose which on I really want?  I’m leaning toward Sticky Notes or Translucent Fluidity.  Cats… I have enough of them… do I really need them on my blog?  I have 3 around me right now.  Steve & Houdini are snoring and Bubbies is not happy with the room she has.  She wants more space.  Add Archimedes on top of the upside down Steve.

Translucent Fluidity is pretty and purple.  Sticky Notes is fun.  And it the main part kind of looks like a notepad.  I don’t like the name of the boat on the YAAARR!! one, but it’s fun.  So.  Let me go get my quarter and deside.  And probably by the time you read this… I’ll have chosen, so you’ll know.

Mom and Dad Goose were swimming in the pond this morning.  I was going to stop and watch but there was a guy right on my tail.  I was also going to pick up a sheet for the house to see how much it costs, but the box was empty.  But the geese were in the pond.

Our  cats are chasing each other all over the house.  Shadow and Houdini are up the stairs and down the stairs. And over the furniture and through the living room and into the kitchen, and up the stairs and down the stairs.

They have a crazies.

Idea – Mobile

Every year for Xmas one or more Pocopson resident asks for an “Adult Mobile.”  Well here it is.  This one uses circles of “stained glass.”  It’s that stuff you get at the craft store that uses acrylic disks and the “Gallery Glass” paint.  You could use other shapes and styles of wire.
