This ~N~ That

Life around here, for the first time in weeks, is boring, so I won't send you off to Never Never Land to dream of excitement! Instead, I'm going to send you off to other blogs.

The first one is Why Not Nikker. Be warned - there are graphic pictures! But it ends well. They are just "Oh My God How Did That Horse Survive" type pictures!

The second is Fugly Horse of the Day. I've read this before and it's hysterical!

The third is The Adventures of Bo Diggity. Kort just got a hungry grey filly, which is now named "Pebbles", thanks for Candice Bloom. I don't think Kort had pics or the story up yet, but keep checking back, I'm sure we're in for quite a story! Wait a sec! Did I seriously read she's a 2 yr old the size of a weanling? (Not on her blog yet - insider information)

And last but not least, do you have one of these?



It's a soft, fleece neck sock and a reader, Mrs Cravitz, made a bunch for me. This is the "after. Here's the "before". (If you are interested, send me an e-mail and I can put you in touch with her)

Front


Back

You tuck the flaps in and WOOHOO! No more cold neck, cold chest or cold wind blowing down the back of your collar!

She also sent a Neck Tube. I still haven't figured out how to wear it, so I usually look like this when I go out to feed. (Well, at least my HEAD looks like this)

LOL - loved that last pic!! BUT when one is cold, I found out you don't care how you look as long as you are snug as a bug in a rug warm!!
Somewhere there is a pic of me on South Island New Zealand looking like a green stay puff marshmellow man! Had 4-5 layers on and then a green Frogg Toggs(rain proof gear) too funny!!

Great Idea Mrs Cravitz!! Thank you for thinking of the back also!

Love the idea.. So far, my knitting(like my crocheting) has been confined to straight(!) rows. That may be a fun exercise to learn increase/decrease if Mrs. Cravitz does not mind if I rework her design. I can always credit her if anyone loves it. Okay?

Love that idea...when is Wallyworld gonna carry them?--I need a couple!!! Regular scarves just don't cut it for me..all that wrapping and wrapping and tucking...I NEED ONE!! It's kinda like a cold weather dickie for the outdoor person

Send me an e-mail and I can forward it to her. They are awesome - soft fleece and really inexpensive!

I think mrscrvitz should offer to make some to sell. Why give WM the business??? Theirs would be cheap garbage made in China, anyway.

I DID buy mine from Mrs. Cravitz! I guess I should have stated that. Very inexpensive and SO worth it!
