A couple of other expenditures.

One other small thing I popped for a couple of weeks ago was a donation to Ravelry. I figure that it's worth much more than $5 per month to me, so I donated $30, and in a few months I'll donate that much again.

And last night I had such a good time knit night at Stash that I bought a couple of skeins of Jitterbug. I know it's not free to keep a store open and staffed, and the vibe was extremely mellow and welcoming. So I purchased a little bit o' yarn as a way of paying some dues. Plus, it's really pretty yarn.

Kitty is behaving strangely again and howling a lot. So he's been to the vet a couple of times this week and been through a couple of rounds of blood tests. We won't know for about a week why the calcium level in his blood is elevated. He's going to be 17 at the end of this month.

Sorry to hear about the Kitty again. At 17, he's a real trooper. And it's nice to hear about the warm and welcoming evening at Stash. Seems like every time I recommend it to local knitters, I get comments about its cliqueiness and inattentive staff. I have never found it to be so, however, so I'm glad to hear someone else say nice things.
