fire

Puzzle is the name of this block.  And it looks puzzling. Can you do it?
 
I slept very badly last night and had to lie down later in the morning but am still exhausted. We did not go out ,neither did I do any sewing.  I feel so guilty about not doing any sewing or embroidery.
I think I'll do towels tomorrow as I bought two designs of His and Hers and I want to use them. It will be fun.
 
I think I will buy the Sony e reader. It should be fun to read books on the plane and in Quebec and not have to carry a bag of books.
I wonder if I can download books from the library, I believe it's possible. I'll go to the library and ask them how to do it.
 
 
 Terrible fire in the garment industry in Bangladesh, 112 workers died in this fire. It immediately reminded me of the fire in the shirtwaist garment industry in New York in March 1911.  113 people died in the fire where managers locked all the doors and exits ensuring no one could get out.  They wanted to make certain no one stole anything and took it down the stairs.
 
The Grey cup game is on. We are not too happy as Calgary is losing and Toronto is winning. Looks like the west is on a losing streak. Our Lions lost to Calgary last week. Tough going !
And now no hockey. Too bad.
Paul McCartney is performing here in Vancouver tonight after a 40 year interegnum. Oh man what is that word anyway LOL.
 
These little birds , Sun Conures at one time were ubiquitous, found everywhere in North Eastern South Americs  and now are on the endangered list due of course to human interference. I once owned a pet shop and saw many types of parrots and parakeets in my activities in  the service of my business, Only once did I see the Sun Conure and it was not for sale. It was a lovely little bird but like all conures could be very noisy. They did look beautiful because of the colours. They were small enough to handle and tame as opposed to the larger parrots. I once had a Timneh  red tailed African parrot and I had numerous bad bites from that bird and no way could I tame him. I didnt mind the bites when I was taming a bird but this guy was really bad.  I eventually had him sent to a parrot place where he was used for breeding. But I doubt that you could even get this guy to do that LOL.
 
Oh my this is fantastic, I know it is not extraordiary but it is loving and kind. I like it a lot.
 
This is so beautiful that I think I might have shown it before.  But if it is the first time then enjoy it.
 
 
Dogs are so adorable. Isn't this one cute.
 
Babies!! of all varieties.
 
Our young Adam-an engineer in the making!! See what you can do with a pile of jam.
