Small Happinesses...
Some days contain small moments of happiness. Here are a few of mine:

Four grandkids in constant motion

Six beautiful kittens presented by Pearl. Three are already gone to new homes. I still have three little gray cuties, if you're interested...

One glorious sunset:

Two pairs of socks finished, and one more begun:

Socks for Captain Bob, my own design

Dutch Affair Socks, pattern by Dutch designer Erry Pieters-Korteweg, yarn by Rhichard Devries in "Torrid Affair"

Socks for co-worker Judy, in her favorite Fighting Irish colors of navy and Kelly green

And then, there are these oddities that come to visit in damp weather:

 They are huge, maybe as tall as eight or nine inches, and I'm pretty sure they're toxic....

I have nothing profound to say today. It's cool and drizzly outside, and I will not spend my day off mowing for the last time this year, as I'd planned. Snow is forecast for Wednesday. I think that I shall knit.

Christmas is coming, and I have projects to plan.
