This couldn't have been a more perfect description of today in Albuquerque than if Dickens had been here today when he wrote it:

Mine is a lot scrappier than this one as in strip quilt, but I like the sidewalks around the kites and the prairie point border.​

I just dug out an old knitting project that uses 70% baby mohair and 30% silk. That's no cheap project and I am trying to puzzle out the pattern, laid down over five years ago...

And he knits too.

Knits lace! Lace shawls make great gifts for all the ladies on your gift list.

Spring Equinox coming up soon.

The time is flying by.

Well I'll have to admit that if I was a lady on your gift list, that would definitely be well received.

And, it's cat themed. I'll see if I can get a photo loaded.

Still cold here and going to get real cold again, like January cold. What in the heck is going on? Pretty day though. The sun is shining and even though it's only 26 degrees, you can feel Spring in the air. The sun is getting high in the sky and it won't be long now. The average temperature goes up over 20 degrees in March and we gain 88 minutes of daylight. It's invigorating...

Least she can go home and tell hubby...hey pay attention, I still have total strangers after me.

I wouldn't say your totally strange. More like 30%.

Things are moving with the SSDI. Last Friday afternoon a Social Security case worker called to do a phone interview with the wife but she was sound asleep, he stated he saw what the diagnosis was and wanted to get started ASAP. Still I wasn't going to wake here up but we did get back in touch with him this morning so that's done. Also signed a bunch of financial and HIPAA documents to get things moving faster with possible Medicaid and other assistance.
So far the short term disability insurance has been making weekly deposits but don't know how long that will last, end of the month, mid May as was originally approved?
We have other possibilities available if we need them so things aren't as dire as first expected but that could change a little also.
She's finishing up her third cycle so she should have a CAT Scan soon and we'll see how much the tumors have shrunk, if at all.........

Cat scan you say? I did not see a one when I looked.

Winter is still with us, but its back is broken. For most of us we are seeing melting snow as often as new snow. Or no snow at all. Spring is erratic and usually windy in Albuquerque. But the crocuses are blooming and the daffodils are coming up.

Oh Foxfyre, my mom's back surgery went so well, my dad had one too. Both have recovered completely. I hit all five steps on the way down about five weeks ago, on an icy morning. Damaged a nerve on the right side, but it is not causing me trouble any more.

Back problems epidemic in your family? Just teasing. Glad to hear all surgeries went well and your own injury has resolved. You be careful though okay? We're rather fond of you, you know.
