D Is For...

DEBORAH! Deborah, you are the winner of my giveaway! Please email me your mailing address so that I can get your package off to you :o)

P is for...Popcorn. My little monster went in on Tuesday and was spayed. It was a good thing too because she was coming into heat. No wonder I was dealing with Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. She's been really good since she came home. We've been keeping her in my stitching room where it's really quiet. I hope this will be the solution to her bitchy attitude because it's no fun dealing with her angry alter-ego. LOL!

S is for...stitching. I've been working at it but not as much as I would like to. I'd say that I am about halfway done but this is crazy! It's only ornament size but it seems to be taking forever :o( My in-laws were here over the weekend and since they've left, I've been SO tired. I hope this feeling goes away soon. I miss my stitching.

M is for...movies. Tonight DH and I went to see The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo at our local theatre. If you're not familiar with this movie, it's a must see! Just a warning, it's a foreign movie, with sub-titles, and it's very graphic. If you're not up for the movie, I highly recommend reading the book! It's by Stieg Larsson and the first in a three part series. I'm almost done reading the second book - The Girl Who Played With Fire and I can't wait to see the movie.

I've heard good things about this book. I can't seem to get it from the library (40 people in line), so I'll have to buy it.

Poor Popcorn. Hope she's recovered well.

I sent you your bunny tea set today. :-)

Awww shucks but congrats to Deborah :)

Here's hoping Popcorn feels like a new girl now.

Wasn't that movie good?? Very graphic but great writing. They say the books are even better.

Angela said...

Congrats to your winner! I hope you feel less tired soon :) I've heard of this book/movie but it seems really dark and depressing but I may have to watch the movie to judge for myself.

Denise said...

Congrats to Deborah for her win. I'm smiling at your description of Popcorn. Can you explain how a rabbit acts 'bitchy'? I'm clueless.

I love all the Stieg Larsson books. The third is even better than the second. I haven't seen the movie, but I'm sure I will rent the DVD.

Annie said...

Glad to hear you have Popcorn under control now. Females with raging hormones don't always make the best housemates.

I'm not into sub-titled movies, but I do like reading. I may check out that series.. so much buzz about it.

Congrats Deborah !!! I think I will read the books if movie is in sub-titles. Thanks for letting me know that. Hope Popcorn settles down more.

Carol said...

Congratulations to Deborah! Hope little Popcorn is recovering...

Hope your energy comes back soon, Cathey--I've been dragging lately, too, but I think this heat and humidity is the cause.

Hoping Popcorn feels better now that that is taken care of. I didn't know they spayed rabbits!

Melanie said...

I just noticed the Dragon Tattoo movie is on Netflix streaming so I'll have to watch that one for sure! (I can watch those movies through my TiVo service.) I don't mind subtitles but it *does* take away from stitching/knitting time because you have to keep your eyes on the screen! lol

Here is hoping that Popcorn is feeling better soon.

Glad to have found your blog!!

Congrats to Deborah! Hope the doggie continues to heal and feel better!

I hope your tiredness goes away soon, Cathey! The out-laws, er, in-laws can totally zap your energy!

Glad you liked the movie. I'll have to pass - graphic is not for me. I'm a wuss!

Congratulations to the winner! :)

Popcorn is a girl... we are all moody :p Lol!

I hope you'll take the weekend to rest a little, next week your needles will be back to action ;)

Big hug to you :)

Lori said...

You can see what I'm working on in my blog now. Life has settled into a rhythm now (at last)

The Stieg Larsson books are very popular here as well. But I haven't read them yet.
