I also have a lot of cats. Please excuse the fact that the cats insisted on being part of my pictures!
Yesterday I got a mysterious box in the mail. It was a familiar address...I've ordered spindles from Jesh in the past and if you're in need of a spindle, she's who I'd recommend! But in this case, I hadn't ordered a spindle. I explained this to Chris as I opened the package. I explained it repeatedly. For some reason, he didn't seem to believe me...
When I opened the box, a marvelous sight met my eyes. The mysterious package contained a blanket. Not just any blanket, either. A blanket made by my friends from Ravelry, friends from all around the world, many of whom I've never had the pleasure of meeting! Here it is, the Love Blanket:

The pictures don't do it justice. Each and every block is amazing and unique and beautifully knitted or crocheted by people who care about me. As you can see, Boris approves.
Miss Mouse also approves. So do Moses and Jack. I'm having to fight for the use of my new blanket, but the upside of this is that every time I sit down, I immediately have a kitty or three on my lap!
Now, for the mushy part...to all of you who had a part in making me this lovely gift, THANK YOU!!! I can't even begin to put into words how much it warms my heart to have so many good friends scattered throughout the world. I will treasure this gift, and the thought behind it.
(Timothy, not unlike the cats, has to make his way into as many pictures as possible.)

Mwah!
We only give what we get in return. It was so hard to keep this secret.
I can never remember my password here, Heatherfeather
Yay! I'm so glad it arrived! I agree with Heatherfeather; it's not easy secret-keeping from the much-loved Lista xxx
It looks so good all put together! Enjoy!
How very lovely!
