Not only did Ann Marie* from Delaware send a bunch of mittens:

She also sent what could be the most amusing mitten-related note** I've ever read. And I've read quite a few. 

Lucy like it so much that she stole it as I was snapping these pictures.

Corgis, they say, just gotta corg. Fortunately, I got to it before it  became so much confetti. It's a little damp, tho.

Thanks Ann Marie!

In other news, Barney, the quasi-feral cat I refer to as "Jerkface Killa," can sense the coming of winter and that has ramped up his need to kill critters to get us through the cold times. He hasn't had much luck with actual living things this year - not that I have found, anyway - but still insists on bringing my husband and I tasty internal organs every night. Just this week we've stepped on a digestive system, an esophagus, and a liver. 

So what if they've been plucked out of the Tween's Visible Man?
