So the closest approach of the "Christmas comet" was supposed to be tonight. I think I may have seen it, but there was no discernible tail, and it just looks(ed) like a star to me. https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/christmas-comet-46p-wirtanen_us_5c172b95e4b049efa753a332
Nowhere near the last "real" comet I saw back at the end of the 90s, I believe it was Hale-Bop and when viewed from out at sea and from the middle of nowhere in the desert of the SW, it had a tail that reached across the sky and was clearly visible to the naked eye and most obvious to see. I mean, there was no way you could miss it.

It is too cloudy to see the comet here.

Last night was supposed to be the brightest, but it'll be there through the end of the month moving further away each night.

I figured it would be hard to see when I read that you should use peripheral vision to see it.

Morning all about headed to clean the coops made myself couple dollar size pancakes

Would those be a Sacagawea dollar, Silver dollar or Paper dollar size?

Go Dog, Go.

How very appropriate!!

Got my treadle quilt done.

Everything from "old tech" to "new tech"!
Very nice as usual.

In College there was an English assignment to write an essay about a book that changed you life. I chose Green eggs and Ham because it was the first book I read on my own.

The professor was not impresses! I should have picked a Tale of Two Cities? Yuk!

What grade did the paper get? You should be graded on the content and correctness (grammar and all) of the paper, not the book that was the basis of it.

Go Dog, Go.

I still quote it to this day.

I'll randomly spout "No I do not like your hat. Goodbye, Goodbye"


People think it's weird. Most don't recall the book.

Not sure what I'm going to work on next. I've got 2 tops that need to go on the longarm, one of which I have the backing and batting for, the other I don't. So, probably that one

I like the backing you picked.

Great artistic last photo with the sewing machine in the background.

Here too.

So much plowing. Takes up so much time.

It is funny ... can't even talk on the phone while plowing.
