Zubin was up early this morning and ready for a squirrel hunt. I was feeling a bit giddy and encouraged his play. Screams of "Squirrelie" could be heard coming from the house accented with a bark here and there.

I moved in with Zubin today. I'll live with him for the next 24 days while his parents are off exploring Italy, France and England. I know the next 24 days will be full of fun and squirrel chasing.

After a long day at work, I drove by the park where we sometimes do Yoga. I've been intrigued with the cement basketball court and the old gnarled trees which line its boundaries. It's a surprising place to find in such an industrial area of the city.

This rose has slowly bloomed over the weekend while I watched some of my favorite kids. The rose seemed to awake even a bit quicker than they did each morning. I've forgotten how long young teenagers can sleep. Those were the days.

I stopped by Ryan's today to pick up some Dulaan yarn. I held back but I think I have enough for quite a few sweaters. Children in Mongolia will be warm once my work is done!

This straw egg always catches my eye when I'm driving through Clyde Hill. I wonder who created it and who keeps it looking so nice. It's a good egg.

Books line my nightside table/desk and I only hope to have enough time to read them all.

Driving home after a long day at work which included a delicious dinner out with business associates. I'm tired and so is the road.

I could watch Destiny sleep for hours which isn't that hard considering that she sleeps ALL the time.

The Danskin was today and I had so much fun! My time was a bit slower than I would have liked BUT that is ok, it was close. What a day! Time for nap!

My Magic Yarn Ball arrived today from Sweden and I just want to knit, knit, knit with it! I'm deciding what to knit and I can't wait!

Nik Nik and the turtle live in the basement of the house I'm currently watching. I talk to them quite a lot since the tv is down there as is the room I sleep in. Nik Nik likes to make a lot of noise at night when he feels that I am not properly paying attention to him. Silly bird!

We had a small celebration for Mot at her house tonight. She leaves for Australia in the morning but not before I got her with some whipped cream!

After getting my hair cut, I headed down to Southcenter to meet up with a friend for knitting. Along the way, I stopped at McDonald's for a bite to eat. I got a Happy Meal and got this great toy!

I've been swatching my heart out. If I actually knit on all my unfinished projects as much as I've been swatching for TKGA Master Knitter Level 1, I'd probably have most of them done!

I went swimming with my Mom tonight and got out a bit before her. My Mom likes to play float in the pool so I caught her playing. I also took a few photos around the pool while I was waiting for her.

The two dogs followed me around as I made dinner tonight. Their little faces peering into mine almost suckered me into giving them some of my food. But I'm stronger than that! OK, OK! So they did get some beef. They liked it.

Baby presents herself just of reach for belly rubbing and head scratching every night. I've told her that is helps if she gets just a bit closer so that I don't fall off the couch trying to pet her!

The old fashioned looking light outside the garage really throws off a good light. It was enough for me to check out the pond's water level and bother some of the fish. Shush! They like it.

I am obsessed with knitting swatch #1 for the Master's Knitting Program and I just need to move that obsession to knitting the remaining 15 swatches. Fear is keeping me back which is dumb!

I'm at the Medina house and these beautiful shells live in the bathroom. How gorgeous! I'd love to see one in its natural habitat someday.

I took Jesse for a walk through the park today. It was beautiful and stark at the same time. I finally got Jesse to look into the camera for a photo and I really like this one of her.

As I waited for my Mom to arrive at Martha Lake, I noticed these kids with two goats and a sheep. You know you are in the country when goats and sheep are roaming around. And to think Mill Creek isn't really the country at all!

I caught this image driving across the I-90 bridge today. The log booms are already out for the hydroplane races this weekend. Seafair traffic is driving me nutty!

Today I caught the pond during daylight hours which I think shows off the true beauty of the pond.

I'm watching my former boss's house and she has a beautiful Koa Fish pond. I attempted some night time photography of the pond and got some interesting images.

I headed over to Bainbridge Island today for a yarn shop crawl and lunch with the ladies. It was wonderful and after the rain lifted, the scenery was just gorgeous! What a lovely, lovely day!

Today was dog day! I ended up watching 4 different sets of dogs. The most energetic was Pochi who attacked her toys with a vengeance and wanted to play "Toss" for hours and hours. I caught this image in that one second in which she was holding still.

When I heard Tamara was pregnant, I went a little nuts in the knitting department! I just couldn't help myself!
