Fragment Day

How can it be Friday again, already!!! And it's time to dredge out the bits of trivia and casual information that don't constitute a whole post, but are too important to ditch. To someone anyway.

Our hostess for this weekly clambake is Mrs. 4444's of Halfpastkissintime. Hook up and have fun.

The only idea I could come up with for a birthday present for GoodGuy was a reading device such as a Kindle or a Nook. When we got to researching them, he urged me to wait. He is still without a present. I feel guilty, (but rich.)

I've been blogging for a year. I learn more when I read blogs than when I write them, and my tech abilities are still lame. I need a class.

My family is gearing up for a family reunion next weekend and my photographer just got a paying gig and won't be there. The best laid plans of mice and men...... (KC, can you come??)

We have baby birds learning to fly in our yard this week. There are little ones flying from the grass where they almost disappear, to the low branches of the spruce tree. And a fat baby robin was teetering on the clotheslines. He didn't get the memo that robins don't do that so much. We have one robin who hangs out in the bird bath splashing around all day. He probably thinks he's a duck.

I didn't miss my peonies, and they are really beautiful this year. Usually we get a big rain and windstorm right after they blossom, which blows them all around and messes them up. But not so far this year.

I am knitting-----a prayer shawl-----it's long, it's boring, but it will comfort someone, sometime, I hope. And it keeps me praying, a worthwhile past time.

Have a nice weekend and link up with your fragments.
