02.28.2008 :: 59. The last day of February *Usually* and the weather is freezing

Amaryllis are pink
and
sweaters are blue
tomorrow's a blog day off
can I stand it?
~~
Pink:
Susan the amaryllis blooms
Susan the amaryllis is such a trooper. Despite an extreme case of bulb rot including a small force of fruit flies (which are really like the buzzards of the plant world, right?) she is putting forth such a magnificent display of beauty. Bravo, Susan!
Blue:
flyingdales the cardigan
Flyingdales the cardigan grows and grows and never gets finished. It's the perpetual sweater! (Fun, though!)
Blog day off:
The extra day. What to do. Blog? Not blog? "they" want us to take a day off. "WE" say HELL NO, WE WON'T GO! Or something. I'm sure there's a chant in there somewhere.
Will I be back tomorrow? Won't I? Tune in tomorrow, same bat time, same bat channel!
(That was always my favorite show as a kid. I was such a 70's kid, tomboy at that!)

Oh, do blog. You won't get a February 29th chance again for 4 years, after all. And we all look for you, you know.

Happy knitting.

I haven't decided yet whether to blog today. I have nothing to say, but that generally doesn't stop me.

Great cardigan! Lovely Susan! Yucky bugs!

Why not be a 366 day blogger instead?

Susan is a lovely color!

weren't you annoyed when she ended up as "Batgirl" rather than "Batwoman"? I sure was. My first feminist thought, as the tender age of six.

Holy lace cardigan, Batman! A day without Sandy posting! Can it be?

Zowie, Batman!

(I was right there with you.)

Way to go, Susan!

Susan has four flowers?! What a good little bulb she is.

Sweater looks lovely. I'll miss you tomorrow. So will the daffs. ♥

I will miss my Sandy (maybe even Norma), so email me often, okay?

Here's what I'm going to teach you today: I'm pretty sure those are not fruitflies, but fungus gnats. I learned this the hard way. They are eating the rotting flesh, and probably the roots, of poor Susan.

I'm gonna try to NOT blog. I am. Try and stop me. Hee.
