Full moon

There was a lunar eclipse this morning, so decided to get up and watch it.  It was very cold, and even though I managed to position myself inside to watch and take photos, the camera became sluggish, so the later ones are not very good.  But I did try  :)

And whilst I was freezing my little backside off, someone was cosy in my bed.  =D

Stage 1

Stage 2

Stage 3...............the full eclipse too over an hour.

By this time, the shutter was very sluggish and had to warm up the camera.  It was about 5.30am by the time I took this shot.

This is the total eclipse, and I was so cold, even though the heater was on and I had my moomin rug around me.  I quit and went back to bed.  So didn't get the reverse.

I have finally finished the cardigan for my mother-in-law.  Not sure when I will take it down to her.  It looks awfully big, so hope it fits.  She nominated the size.  Keep your fingers crossed or what ever you do for luck I can't remember, even though you did tell me  :D



Not easy to get good shots of these sort of things is it.

I bought myself a new version of my genealogy programme, Family Tree Maker.  So will be spending lots of time on that.  This version allows you to add photos, so will be trying that.

Football again tomorrow (Friday) night, and then we have a big fundraising dinner on Saturday night.  Still deciding what to wear as it is a dress up affair.  (Need Laura here to help me  :D )


I am currently waiting for that pesky rabbit to come inside. It is after midnight and it is cold with the door open, hoping he will bring himself inside.  Yesterday he didn't want to go outside.  I just can win with this rabbit.   :)


Have a great weekend.  Hugs and kisses.

How lovely photos of the lunar eclipse! It is really hard to be photoed at. You were brisk to go out and take photos - I think I would've remembered the thing too late (overslept).

Cardigan looks really lovely. Hope it's the correct size. I know how hard it is to predict without some tryings on. But I think it's always better to be a bit too big than too small anyways.

Cute bed raider you have! =D

Took the cardigan down yesterday and was a bit long. But she seem happy enough.

I do have a lovely bed companion =D
