Cara is having a contest to celebrate her upcoming January One birthday. Read the clues and guess what sock she’s knitting before December 31, 10 am EST, and you could win some not-yet-for-sale STR yarn and other goodies.
Kristi is looking for a baby whisperer (and celebrating her blogiversary) – leave her a comment with tips for getting both of her twins asleep at the same time and you could win some fibery gifts (and provide relief to some exhausted parents!). Deadline is January 4, 11 pm EST.
I’ve come to the conclusion that Typepad hates me this week. I’m having trouble commenting on Typepad blogs – pages load really slow and I (eventually) get error messages when I click “Post.” This is happening in both Firefox and IE – anyone have any ideas what might be the problem?! Much appreciated… If you’re on Typepad, really, I still love you. I just can’t comment! 🙂
I got nothin’… Look! Over there! A kitten!
May is always a good distraction from lack of actual blog content. 🙂
What’s with all of the dirty carpets across the blogosphere these days? I just don’t get it. 😉
Typepad tells me, when I comment, that my comment is spam 🙁 but then allows me to type in the verification “word” and posts the comment just fine. Whatever.
Luckily I know enough to check your blog daily b/c you are such a faithful blogger. Bloglines can’t fool me!
It is true that such cuteness is hard to resist…About your typepad issues, don’t worry, the little green men who run the internet will stop being asses soon enough…
The sooner you admit that the cats are the blog content, the happier you’ll be….
Pictures of May are always good. It’s a good thing May isn’t at my house. 🙂
No suggestions on the posting problem. For once, I haven’t had any problems posting comments anywhere this week.
Hey May, come on over and see our place! We left gifties for Mom on the floor while she was away! Then we batted it around, just for the fun of it!
Love,
Atticus, Mae and Gandalf
Hey Chris- pretty sad when the animals make comments about the housekeeping standard.
My house is one big dust bunny.
I’m sorry Typepad isn’t working. But then, I haven’t posted today, so I don’t know what’s going on.
Have you read anything by Lisa See? She was recommended to me. I’ve got two of her books from the library but haven’t started them yet, myself, but they sound very good.
Check out her site, lisasee.com
May is just too cute. I hope you have better luck with Typepad soon!
I’ve been having problems with Typepad blogs, too. I’ve had to refresh them to get them to load properly. Usually it’s blogger that doesn’t want to display properly. And I’m just about at the end of my rope with Bloglines – I do not see any rhyme or reason to their updates. Luckily, I love blogs!
hahaha… those pictures just slay me.
and I have the same problem with Typepad sometimes. argh.
Awwwwwww.. May is so cute!
May is such a cutie pie! Happy New Year to the whole family!
*rubs Mayhem’s chin*
Your kitty is so cute… Good luck with typepad, sorry can’t help you!
Sorry, no Typepad advice…
…but Mayhem sure is cute!
At what age does a kitten become a cat?
I love me some Mayhem! I don’t see the need to vacuum. 😉
not to worry about a stray hair or two – we all just come here for the kitties.. oh, and you of course too!
Let’s not even start on my carpet. It’s very dirty and wet, since there’s so much freaking snow in NM! When will it stop? I just want clean carpets again!
I would take a dog picture to distract you from it’s dirtiness, but May is much cuter 🙂
That kitten is getting big! 🙂
Us Typepad folks feel your love.
I need to vacuum, too! Ick! I have mounds of dog hair to dispose of. (That’s scary imagery.)
Neither of my cats would ever suggest that I get out the vacuum. They’re both pretty sure it’s after them!
Ah! So cute kitten!
Typepad does weird things with some anti-virus software. You didn’t suddenly add Norton, did you? Because that’s why I couldn’t comment on your blog for ages after you moved here–my stupid Norton Anti-Virus was blocking some crucial program string or some such.
I’d love to vacuum but my machine DIED…as in picks up the stuff and spits it right back out! YUCK…
(The Meezer and pals, on the other hand, are quite pleased with this development as they HATE the noise the thing makes!)
Mistress Mayhem is, as always, adorable!
(((hugs)))
May is too cute! Averting her eyes. ROTFL.
The only issues I’ve had lately are having to type out my entire address. Well, that and having to type the verification word 800 times, but for me, that’s normal.
I doubt it’s you. It’s always THEM. At least that’s my theory.
Tell May to get out the vacuum herself if she’s so concerned about the carpet.
Try clearing out your browser cache. Sometimes when Typepad is being weird, that helps.
Happy New Year to you!
I’ve been getting the same message as kmkat when commenting on Typepad blogs today.

Happy New Year & congrats to Chaos and May on their award!
Are you sure that wasn’t a stray whisker?? Happy New Year!
May is so sweet! Happy New Year.
Happy New Year!
Congrats on your Cutest Couple Award Chaos and Miss May!
We just practice floor avoidance photography. Or pretend we have speckled carpet. And doesn’t black fur go with everything anyway.
What? No post in days? I mean, I haven’t, but I expect more from you. 😉
OTOH, such cute May pictures. I love that expression she has in the middle pic.
I think they were feeling bad with you.
A kitten? Where ooh ooh ooh!
