Pink Ribbon


Today I received my sock kit for Pink Ribbon Socks




I'm not sure when I'll be able to cast on as I have other projects on the needles right now and would like to get them finished first



This week started in a state of complete exhaustion...slowly I am getting the rest I need plus getting my housework done. In the oven right now is a simple peach cobbler (of course I cheated as one must do sometimes)...



I can hardly wait for the Saturday the 23rd. I am going to go to Springville with the KTK Yarn Mavens (a wonderful group of people I have met through www.ravelry which is an outstanding knitting/crochet site. A group of us are going on a road trip to Dulitz Tree Farm. I'm looking forward to this trip...hoping to come home with some beautiful yarn.

Almost Rested


Well I'm back from helping eldest daughter pack and move...that was extremely exhausting due to the fact that my fibromyalgia flared up big time...



During rest time I did knit on another sock...I love the yarn...will take and post photos later...



This past Sunday I did something new...helped make a DIAPER CAKE ! ! ! ! !



Our youngest daughter asked me to go shopping for school clothes for her son...it turned into a fun day...we did the shopping and ended back at my home...and made a Diaper Cake. She had told me about making them before but I never actually seen one. We did a bit of research online and saw how others were made...so between how daughter had made before and what we saw we made one...it was fun...I learned how to make bunnies out of baby washcloths...that was interesting...the baby shower is this weekend so we'll see how the mommy to be likes what we did.



Well it is time to get dinner and then I'll sit and get the bills written and ready for the mail on the first...then it'll be time to knit, knit, knit...

Scream...

If you happen to hear a blood curdling scream...it just could be me!

I'd Like To Breathe

This past week has seen me in the house...all the time!



Why? If you've seen the news at some point you would know all about the fires here in California. The temperature has been over 100 - which doesn't bother me - but the air quality has been unbearable, at least for me.



During this time I missed three knitting meetups; and grandsons two baseball games...grrr....not happy!



On another note I'll be leaving to go spend time with oldest daughter...she's moving to another apartment and I'm going to go help with the packing.



Tonight I did go out but just long enough to meet with grandsons baseball team for their end of the year pizza party and trophies...then it was straight back home...not going out again for a while...



I do like to breathe...fresh air...while I'm at oldest daughters I'm hoping to enjoy the weather there...cool evenings...maybe I'll even get a quick trip to the beach...one sunset maybe...as long as there isn't ash and soot I'll be fine...



Okay, I'm exhausted. I've been knitting on my February Lady Sweater this week...slowly as I've started it five times...so far I'm doing good.



I've also got some beautiful socks on the needles, which I haven't even touched this past week. Oh I did venture to the library the other day, ran in and picked up books and ran back out and back to the house. Throat hurt like crazy by the time I got home...



Going to go sit with an iced tea and the sweater...oh and the books....have a great weekend....

Evil?

Hmmm, guess I'm not as evil as I thought...according to the following...






You Are 16% Evil



You are good. So good, that you make evil people squirm.

Just remember, you may need to turn to the dark side to get what you want!
