Haley's Comet

Last night Paul and I shared a "Movie Night" with our neighbour who has just adopted a new kitten from the local Humane Society. She has dubbed the little fire ball as Haley's Comet! She is full of spunk and action, and has left our neighbour in a bit of a whirl. My neighbour, "Moonchild" just lost her previous cat, (in June) a lovely companion of 14 years, named Chrystal and this active kitten is a bit of a shock!

I brought my crocheting over to instigate a few pictures - naughty me! Of course, the crocheting had to be put away to see our movie! (see the first picture, yes -- she did pull the project down while I took time to take the picture!) I hope you enjoy the pictures. That's Paul's legs in the background, he was too busy laughing to be any help!

We watched "Newsies", with Robert Duvall, Ann Margaret, and Christian Bale I think the real star of the show, however is the Choreography of Kenny Ortega. If you ever get a chance to see this film do so! It is one of the best from Walt Disney.

My garden is doing well this year, I was thinking of not doing it but relented when all the stores started selling tomato plants! The drought in July killed my snow peas, but other than that, the veggies came through, and are coming in good now.

I have also started a new project which has been eating into my blogging time. I have started to write a novel based on the rich history of this area where I grew up, in Essex County.The research is fun, and enlightening. I thought I had a good grip on the history of Olde Sandwich Towne, and Essex County, but I am learning more every day. I hope to have the book done within two years.

 Hope you had a wonderful summer, and I pray God will take care of you in your every endeavour.

Have a great day,

Phoebe

Haley's Comet as you know has now been named "Schmoo" for obvious reasons. She's sitting here contentedly beside me in her predecessor's chair - the one and only Crystal the cat who has since passed. I still miss Crystal a lot. However, life goes on and here is this little ball of fun, who is learning how to behave a bit at a time...Schmoo!

Loved seeing the photos of a memorable evening with that little fireball who is now fully grown and challenging me still! Sweet memories! Sorry about your wool landing in a big knot on the floor! Must've been Schmoo since Tom wasn't there!
