    Marshall McLuhan did this. By decreasing the amount of information, we leave room for what he called our "noodle."
    ******************

Welcome back everybody-  I've missed you.  Everything caught up here-  I was up doing laundry until the wee hours.  *Somebody* around here changes his/ her shirt three times a day, and both dogs must be wearing his/ her underwear.  Anyway, things are piled high on the couch to put away this morning, just couldn't face it last night.  I have reached the Single Phenomenon-  that is as soon as the remote is in my exclusive control, there is absolutely nothing on to watch.  If it weren't for CSI I would have had to watch Housewives of the Ozarks or Contemporary Family which suddenly seems to be on 12 channels.  We'll see what's on tonight-  I may just have to learn the Roku.






I have a whole bunch of stuff cluttering my desktop that all seems to be yarn-bombing.  No relationship to each other, different countries and different people, just a sort of cozier graffiti that's easier to take down-  a pity.  Personally I think it should be left up until it looks really groady and disgusting, maybe after a season to two in the rain and road crud.  But here it is, mostly new and bright, and fun!
Love the lace 'teeth'

A lot of work to dress a parking meter!

Paul Smith-ish striped trees-  so pretty!

A bit overwhelming, and hard to find your glasses!

Love this idea-  wonder if people actually sit on them on the train?

Your basic overachiever

A smart beany-  you can't see when the truck is behind you way too close!

At first I thought this was woven into the storm drain but looking closely I think it's a mat sewn onto the top.  Quicker get-away!

Cracked road?  No problem!  Custom shaped to your every fissure!   


Yarn bombing CAN be done on movable objects!  But just slow ones.


Now, for the last yarn-y picture, a couple of baby chipmunks (close enough to squirrels, don't you think?)sleeping in their yarn covered nest!  Love the pops of color under the fluffy part.
