The scarf I'm making






I thought I could work on the computer before work this morning. I would usually get Buster up with me but he's getting neutered today and can't eat before the surgery so he's still in bed. Otherwise he'd be bothering me to eat. I thought I had all food and treats up last night but I forgot that Lulu and Buster stash extra supplies, I suppose for situations like this, throughout the house. Lulu was walking around with a treat and Buster would take it from her. I'd take it away and Lulu would stare at me until I gave it to her and Buster would take it away... You get the picture. Lulu finally ate that treat. Buster ended up with a plastic razor cap in his mouth because he's always got to be chewing. I've actually found chewed razors around the house. He is just so different than Lulu was as a puppy! He's a cutie. Anyway, since Buster is in bed, I can work on the computer because otherwise he'd get the birds riled up because it's still somewhat dark in their room and they get frightened easily in the dark.

I've taken a picture of the scarf I'm working on since I took my class on Saturday. Jeanne, why can't I get the flash to work? Should I actually read the manual? lol So, I've posted a picture of the scarf, which is a yellow tweed and also a green tweed yarn I bought. The picture isn't great because I couldn't get the flash to work but you'll get an idea what it looks like. I like it but it's dull. I might incorporate some maroon beeds somehow. Maybe I can finish off the ends with beads?
Nothing else much. I actually worked out at the gym last night. The last 2 times I've gone specifically to sit in the steam room and the whirlpool. The first time I felt guilty so I at least exercised for 10 minutes but the second time I made a beeline for the steam room. The steam room is great during this gray, colder weather.

I guess I'll get going. I will leave a bit late for work today since I'm taking Buster. I don't do well when I change my schedule. I usually have a hard time focusing on what I need to do. I think I'll be ok today though. Until later..............

*That* must be what Doc was talking about when counseling against 2 dogs....they work together to distract, lol.

What setting are you using on the camera?

Hmm..the setting makes a difference? I suppose I should put it on "indoors"?

That would work, but auto should, too. Is the flash raised? (not being smartypants, I've done it, lol)

I turned it to automatic and it's working now. I hope to post a picture of Buster a bit later. I'm on a break from a cleaning spree.

Good luck!

I love the scarf, Lori. Bring it in to work so we can see it.
