I survived my first day back at work! I was pretty tired by the end of the day – but I must admit that it was one of those mornings when I woke up feeling tired. I’m blaming the aggressive kitty snuggling I was subjected to overnight! And curses, does work ever cut into reading blogs or what? Dang. I’m already way behind in bloglines. Woe.
Back before I had Mayhem, RheLynn of KnitOwl made me a wonderful mini-Chaos. She just sent me an adorable mini-Mayhem, too. Aw, thank you so much, RheLynn!
“It is very cute. But I am the real Mayhem! Me! And I am still the cutest!” -Mayhem
I finally sewed buttons on to the last of the bibs I knitted. Whew!
For some reason, Mayhem felt the need to show those bibs who was the boss.
“Ha! Take that, you wicked bibs!” -Mayhem
Chris- I don’t know what’s cuter, the stuffed kitties or the real kitties.
Adorable!
Aww, hee hee! A bit brighter than Chaos – lie all over them and you can’t make them model the bibs!
I know – work! Pfft. So cuts into reading and knitting time… 😀
Glad you survived your first day back to work. I have been working from home part-time this week and it has been going OK. Friday I go into the the office for the first time in six weeks. My energy level is still zapped so I might need the entire weekend to recover from a day in the office. 🙂
Go you! I hear ya on the tired…..
Aw! May is so cute 🙂 And mini-may! Eeeee! The cute!
I sympathize with the first-day-back tiredness. It will get better, Chris.
Love the Chaos and May duo. Too cute, whether doll size or real life 🙂
Yay for living through your first day back!
Woe indeed. Tee hee.
Congratulations (well, sort of) on going back to work. This is my LAST week of work, and I’m thrilled. The little mini-me Chaos and Mayhem are very cute, but of course, not nearly as cute as the real ones.
I love that they have the different colored eyes!
I have to tell you – Puck and I were listening to our new “kitty” CD and he is loving the Wild Kitty song – he keeps playing it over and over!
I’ve been meaning to ask, have you ever sewed buttons on your underwear?
I used to offer that advice often when asked “So What?” you know. It was comedy gold back when I was 10, seriously, that joke killed.
Gee – work made you feel tired? Who’d’a thunk it?
Hehe.. May is just trying to lay on the bibs before “someone” makes her wear them. 🙂 I love the mini-Chaos and mini-Mayhem.
Good job May! Don’t over do, Chris…take care of yourself first. Well, maybe Chaos and Mayhem first and then yourself.
What cute mini-cats! Did you take them to work with you for moral support?
Hehe – how cute! Rhelynn is a talented lady!
It is truly amazing how much time and energy work can eat up. Really, they should just pay us to knit.
Kitty suffocation is a cruel fate for handknits, but I’m afraid it’s the rule when we have killerkitties.
Wouldn’t it be nice to be independently wealthy?
I know how you got Chaos because of his recent birthday. How did you get Mayhem? I only found your blog because Wendy Knits was comparing May’s ‘tocks to Lucy’s. (May’s are cuter, but don’t tell Wendy.)
Hee hee. Go, Mayhem! You tell those bibs!
At least you survived to blog another day ;o)
Hope those coworkers were kind!
Glad you survived the day in one piece! And yes, May, you are STILL the cutest…paws down!
(((hugs)))
First-day-back fatigue is inevitable – you have to get back into the routine of thinking about Their Stuff instead of yours! The kitties are so cute – and you reminded me that I have to start doing some bibs…
Glad you survived your first day back!
She figured she better get on those bibs before they got on her!
Work really does interfere with all that is important – blog reading, knitting….
Too bad the day job always interferes with the fun stuff, right?! I *love* those mini Chaos and Mayhem kitties, but May herself really is the cutest. That post where she tricked Chaos into wearing the baby sweater was a great bit of brilliance on her part!
Boogie said she likes May. Especially when May is ON the bib. :-p
At least it’s a short work week this week and next. Hope today goes just as well!
Mayhem is adorable. Chaos is handsome. And while modeling a pinwheel child’s sweater isn’t shameful, I can see why he hid out.
She figured if she held them down, they couldn’t hop up around her neck. Glad work went well, but it sure does get in the way of life, eh?
Work surely does get in the way of living, huh? I’m upping from 32/35 to 40 starting on Monday…mixed feelings about that for sure!
May is thinking, “As long as I’m sitting on them, they can’t be on my neck.”
“agressive kitty snuggling”, surely not by my fave boy the handsome Chaos or even that delicate little girl the beautiful Mayhem.
it must have been their evil twins Clive and Mary!!
bock to work — it’s a really bad idea, but, does pay the bills and allows us to buy tuna and yarn, usually in that order.
Aw! The cuteness just never ends!
Have a great weekend. 🙂
Glad you survived your first day back, in spite of the aggressive kitty snuggling!
Great bibs, and nice to know who’s boss of the bibs 😉
