Saturday Symmetry and Stitches

Symmetry




Hosted by 
YAM Aunty click here to see her handwork

Thanks to YAM for fueling my urge to crochet  


To save strain on my healing eyes
I worked on making seconds of some of the stitches I like
here are 18 I have completed to date.  I am working on square #2 of the half double crochet
I'm quite surprise no one has mentioned there is no R E D square(s).
Never fear I have a plan...there will be.  Needless to say I will not make all 63 squares.
I'm thinking 25 or 30 total then they have to be stitched together with a yarn needle.
STAY TUNED.

Nature, Feline and Fill ins Friday

 Nature Friday host LLB Gang   


Last week my neighbor had two adorable visitors.  Twin fawns....She lives at the bottom of our cul-de-sac.  When she is away, I water her flowers including the ones you see below.


We think their home is in the woods behind her house.

After taken from the street view

Our 'guy' from Lawn detailing and Enhancement also raised the canopy of the trees giving us more light.
There are 4 'huggable' rocks in the pine straw too...not quite visible in photo.
they are called 'huggable' because they are the size of arms that are hugging.

 Today is Poetic Thursday hosted by our pals Teddy and Angel Sammy at

 Two Spoiled Cats


Below is our photo challenge for this week 


She said muscles are a must

My abs have turned to flab

My biceps are dangling

I will start lifting weights.

I grit my teeth, my eyes get crossed

and almost pop out

I might need a spotter.

Wednesday words with Cali

 

 We thank our Hostess Sandee at

 Comedy Plus  

Dear Auntie HiC,

Mom was at the Dr. office with Dad recently. She noticed a lady wearing a beautiful blue top. Mom commented to the lady that she loved her top & the color was perfect for her. The lady came over & sat next to Mom, thanked her & said she’s going through a rough
time. I won’t go into the details. She explained that she appreciated being able to talk to someone other than her family,  as she doesn’t like to upset them any more than necessary.  When she was called back to see Dr, she hugged Mom & thanked her for listening.

We never know what someone is dealing with.

❤️ Cali




 Cali oh goodness no we never,never know what others are going thru and as your Mom says ....being kind goes a long way
Loving Auntie HiC
