My two cats that are used to being outdoor cats, well the sleep indoors but have access to the outdoor 24/7. While building our new house we have rented a nice house but it is situated right next to a busy road. Therefor my cats have become indoor cats! They are not pleased with the situation but I am affraid to let them out so now they have a small patio (don’t know the right word but hope it is close enough). The patio is better than nothing though I have problems convincing the cats about that.
I play with my cat so they keep active and here is the result …. they get so tired afterwards. And they sleep most of the night – and so do we ;D

On my walk I came this close to a deer! I feel so lucky. The wind direction was just rigth and she didn’t notice me until I tried to get closer. I am not as agile as I thought I was. (I tried to hide in the grass by jumping from the tree I was hidding back). Of course the deer fled and I stood wandering how come I wasn’t as fast and agile as I thought I was ;D.

We are so busy making decisions in our house building project that I hardly can find time to go for a walk. I am making sure that the workers have freshly baked treats every day. One day after delivering cinamon rolls I decided to go for a walk. What a beautiful morning…. if you like spiders!

I AM SO AFFRAID OF SPIDERS!!!!!!!! So it was difficult to continue my walk after seeing all those spider webs. But I maneged to put one foot infront of the other while my heart was pounding and I could hardly breathe. Semi proud of my accomplishment I returned home to make my niece a fuzzy spider. My niece LOVES spiders (can’t believe that we are related).

It took all my effort to crochet this spider! But I did it and that has to be my challenge for many years…….

Sorry that I have been a poor blogger.
My father got very sick with a servere kind of bacterial meningitis and I haven’t had the energy to blog about anything. Everyday stuff seems less important when you worry about loosing your father. My father is a strong man and he survived the meningitis despite the doctors had less faith in him.
My father is on the mend and my energy has come back so now I am ready to blog again.

I like to bring my cellphone with me when I go for my daily walks in the forest – just in case the dog should run away from me and I need to call for help. And on warm days I am not wearing any jacket with zipped pockets so I had to make myself a cellphone bag – green of course (but when I had finished it I realized that it will be difficult to find the bag in case I should loose it in the forest. Maybe I should have chosen another color? Well it was fun and easy to make, so why not make some more?!)
