Crocheted bath pouf and… yard work!

Yesterday evening, I started crocheting a last minute birthday gift for my daughter. It’s right around the corner. See! It’s a crocheted bath puff. Now that I think about it, I haven’t crocheted anything in a few years.

I still have a few more rounds to do, and since I do have time, this will be completed some time today. This morning, before taking my daughter to school, I took the following pictures.

Here’s what has been happening outside.  Say hello to Eclipse, the outdoor cat. He’s super friendly, so I would not consider him feral and we feed him so he hangs outside our place.

Here’s a view of our garden.

It’s too big to include it all in this shot, but you get the idea, right?

And here’s a snapshot of some of the irises.

..and one of the woodpiles. It’s been so chilly here, we’ve been using our woodstove… in May! Brr

Here’s Mr. Bentley, the old man. He’s 10 years old. He’s super sweet and just likes to hang out and rest. He sounds the “bark alarm”  when there are strangers coming in the driveway, wind is too threatening, people talking or or whatever… 😜 He’s an equal opportunity barker!

Last but not least, here’s our newest, Bella!

She’s a Bichon Poo and she only knows one speed… and that’s fast! Even though I was only outside a few moments with Mr. B, this was how she greeted me. She always does that. She is my shadow.
