Berry confusing

 Hi folks.  Is anyone else having issues with gmail and other programs?  I am finding a great deal that were never sent and are still in the Outbox, yet when I send again, they stay put.  So if anyone is receiving several of the same, sorry, but I have no idea (three different programs) if they are actually leaving.  Same with my inbox, they are not showing in any program including gmail.  WTH?  Quite confusing and embarrassing so I apologize if they aren't getting through, or are multiples.

Been busy, Chris is very sick (not covid related) and I got him in to a specialist quickly, but I don't agree with the diagnosis.  Come back in five weeks?  He has either IBS or Crohn's, I would bet money on it if I had any.  A bacterial infection does not make you very ill, allow a week with greatly reduced symptoms, and then start all over again.  For months.  He is better the last two days but it will start again in less than a week.

I've been berry busy, several sizes, some for me and some for others.  If you are interested in a tiny berry to hang or have a cat bat around, here's the ditty I came up with, full cap.  I've used 347, 3777, 221, and currently 22, most with 937 for the green.  You can place those $%#* knots with 822 wherever you would like or use a tiny bead.  Two pieces of 8x12 forty count linen are hanging outside to dry after I bleached and beat them, hoping I like one for the Mary Bell sampler.

The little furball is now a permanent member of my neighborhood.  They have decided to keep her.  The vet checked her, she is now seven weeks old and in good health, will stay indoors with three dogs.  I don't know if the other person backed out or they couldn't give her up.  Regardless, she has a home.  I sat outside for a bit and some days like today, are very emotional.  Chewy mailed a birthday card to Nitzy and I found another small clump of his fur in the mulch.  Missy is not feeling well today.

I hope your weekend is special, or just peaceful, with good thoughts and memories that make you smile.

So sorry to hear about Chris...hoping he is ok. I remember when Colin was (finally) diagnosed with Lyme disease, some of the doctors thought it was Chrone's - no idea why as he didn't evidence symptoms of that. Cute berry pattern...but I won't do that many $*&! knots or use beads...no patience whatsoever!! Hope you have a good weekend.

Hello!

I’ve been having a lot of trouble with Bloglovin. For about a week, there was a message to the effect that the site was overloaded and that they’d be back shortly. Then, sometimes, I can’t get onto the site as “there’s a problem with the url.” It’s very hit and miss at present, but here I am - eventually!

The berry pattern is lovely, and I shall definitely stitch that! Thank you!!

Thanks for the berry pattern...I'd definitely do one if I could/would do the finishing.... (I'm assuming it's dimensional and not flat...flat I could do...and now that I think about it, it might make a pretty cool pin disk...) I've had a strange thing with AOL in the past several months. Emails I send never get to the recipient even though it shows in my sent box...and it has happened with both newly/separately composed emails and reply messages. I finally had to resort to gmail (my "secondary" email) for some recipients. Unfortunately, I don't figure out which recipients it won't send to until after the fact. Yeah, I know about those memory things. 😿 ~Robin~

Prayers that Chris will be diagnosed, correctly treated and healed to complete recovery. Your
instincts have always been keen, so it should be interesting to hear what the final outcome is.
Thank you for the lovely berry. Once finished with Funny Valentine, I am starting a large and
intense sampler that should carry me through the Winter hibernation. So many large swaths of
fabric are either in short supply or are outlandishly priced and available through China, England or Australia, scarce in US???? All kitted up so that should hold me for awhile. Hope
all have a relaxing and peaceful weekend.

I hope a diagnosis can be found for Chris that can be easily remedied. So sorry he's having troubles.
Glad the baby has a permanent home, I hope she will be kept inside all of the time.
Hugs for your emotional day in the swing.
I have a Tuxedo kitty hanging around my bird feeders. Wish he/she would stay home.
Take care and praying your weekend will be peaceful and relaxing.

Lots of people seem to be having trouble with comments on Blogger. Something about they had to go re-set or reenter some things in their account profile?? Might be similar with gmail? I guess I better check my gmail once, not that I use it for much.
I hope they figure out what's wrong with Chris, and take your thoughts into consideration sooner than later. Last thing you need is another person to take care of.
Good news on the kitten! I've printed out your 1776 & October Moon patterns and kitted them up. I'm not sure I'll get them fully finished in time for their appropriate holidays. But if I can get the stitching done, I'll be happy. Thank you for the new pattern.

Hope that Chris got a right diagnose and will feel better very soon.
Yes you got busy,not only berry busy, but also with Chris.
Please take care of yourself! Marly.
A blogfriend has also a lot of trouble with her blog here in Holland.
Thank you for the chart of this sweet berry.
Sending love and peace for a peacefull weekend,Truus from Holland

Hi Marly: Mike had a bacterial infection in his heart which caused a mild heart attack, he is still sick two weeks later with the Virus.
I hope Missy is feeling better, so happy to hear the little baby found a home, so very lucky and with three dogs, youzer.
Love the strawberry.
I have been having problems with google, its a shame they cannot leave it alone if its not broke do not try to fix it, some think its okay to mess around with things then screw it up for the rest of us.
I hope you are having a great day, rainy here and muggy.

Catherine
