Our Sunday was spent moving furniture, storing stuff, and cleaning. Allergy pill was taken early on! But I think it all paid off. Now we will see if the house will sell well. I don't have any before photos, at least, not that I know. I can give y

OK, so some are from years ago! Just got some photos developed, you know those 35mm kind, and low and behold, there were 2 items I made for nieces that have never been showcased anywhere. 1st up, Leah's Quilt. This is Hubster oldest niece. S

Since being home I have been a busy bee. Thursday was a lot of book packing, knitting books. Now watch me need one desperately in the next 8 months. Wait, I have enough WIPs going to keep myself busy for the next 8 months. Ran over to rent a storage

Just been out of town for a bit. We headed to Indy to see my sister and visit with a friend and her kids. We had lots of fun. Dropped into the Central Library when we hit town and the girls played around until Sis was free to go. We hit the shopping

Not knitting, not much of anything going on. Been to the plumbing company for fixtures, faucets, tubs, toilets, and pedestal sinks. Today was meeting with my "Interior Decorator" for lighting placement and kitchen advice. She comes cheap, a

I've found a new to me blog recently. She has some lovely patterns for free, and some for sale. She just finished a vest in memory of her father. Wish I wore vest, and even that Hubster wore them! I have some of her other patterns waiting in the

Good thing I went to that shower

Not only was I able to give the baby sweater to the Momma, I am also likely selling our camper to boot! Hubster's cousin is in the market for one, they had bid on one at auction that morning, but didn't get it. She mentioned it to my MIL and

Wish I could say fun and exciting things have kept me away. And I guess knitting on Monday and Tuesday were fun. Beyond that it's been house building related. We met with a design company to do a house plan. The one we had needed some changes. So

To Hubster. 41 years and counting. It's the counting that's most important, don't stop! Thank you for all the things you do. The way you love me, your girls, and our families. The way you enjoy NASCAR with me. The way you take care of the

How Knitpicks kills a lovely knit

Saturday, 1 March 2008 4:43 P GMT-06
Got my Knitpicks email. They highlight a sweater from a book that I have been interested in seeing. But looking at their version, yuck! Why would I want to make this? Why would the designer add that trim in another color? Well, she didn't quite.
