Day parade &#8211; look carefully at the brown horse; a photo of my sweet little Ophy cat, who currently isn&#8217;t feeling too great &#8211; hopefully she&#8217;ll get better soon; and a picture of the sun lighting up one of our glass doorknobs.<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-1383 gallery-columns-2 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='http:\/\/abbykingsbury.org\/books\/man-in-the-moon\/img_2856\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"http:\/\/abbykingsbury.org\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/IMG_2856-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='http:\/\/abbykingsbury.org\/books\/man-in-the-moon\/img_2883\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"http:\/\/abbykingsbury.org\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/IMG_2883-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='http:\/\/abbykingsbury.org\/books\/man-in-the-moon\/img_2900\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"http:\/\/abbykingsbury.org\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/IMG_2900-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='http:\/\/abbykingsbury.org\/books\/man-in-the-moon\/img_2907\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"http:\/\/abbykingsbury.org\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/08\/IMG_2907-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last Sunday, to assuage my guilt at wasting time watching the Olympics, I decided to multitask and make a necklace while observing other people being active (which always makes me feel woefully chubby and out of shape).\u00a0 The necklace is one I&#8217;ve been wanting to make for a long time &#8211;
