Well, we are in Daytona. But the journey here was along one. We left Evansville at 4:25, a little later than planned, but still in time to make it. Horrible weather through most of GA and parts of FL made for rough driving. Finally arrived in Orlando

In less than 16 hours we will be off. Florida here I come! The girls and I will enjoy close to 3 weeks of sun and fun. Eek! Do I have enough knitting packed? I am taking Icarus, As You Like It, Beech Wood, and Moebius Cowl. The Cowl and Beech Wood wi

I am not smarter than Einstein. Happily knitting away on the left front, I forgot to do the buttonholes! So I will drop back on the edge and do 3 buttonholes as I knit back up. I don't even have to undo the edge sts, the buttonholes are done 5 st
Are you as smart as Einstein?

Einstein can't whip me. Especially when it's a baby Einstein. I can outwit that baby with little effort. See: We will be doing an Einstein KAL at the shop this fall, so I need to get this baby done ASAP. And it's quite easy when you do th

Just so I wouldn't forget what it's like, I grabbed a quick knit project the other night. Elder had a double header, Younger was spending the night elsewhere, so I was free to sit and knit once the heat of the day passed by. I was fortunate t

Are you a numbers person? I am. I'm also into patterns/sequences. I love to figure out puzzles. It all fascinates me. My friends think I am crazy. Especially when I sit down and figure out how many more sts to go on Icarus. I told you, I am total

Double header. Lost first game 11-4, won the 2nd 11-2. So in the end we had the better night. Elder got 5 hits tonight, so she is consistently hitting 2-3 times a game. She doesn't always make it to base, but on average she gets there 50% of the

You are swimming at your Mother's home. Your niece has a few friends over also. You Mother leaves to run errands. At some point, 2 of the friends walk into your Mother's home, right after you hear one say, "I'm hungry, I'm going

My before and after shots. Before I went to the fiber fest I got these skeins: The left isn't that pink, more purply. The right isn't that red, more burgundy. And I got these at the fest: But not all of these are mine

Actually we drove, just had to avoid the water. My teaching gig in Franklin, IN * was plagued by a severe thunderstorm that raged for the entire morning, finally lightening up when I was done. Do you know how hard it is to teach when the rain on the

The knitting, however, is not. I knit one night during our Houston trip. The girls and I watched National Treasure 2, so I knit on the sweater. But nothing during the trip home. And now that we are home it's been run run, or sun sun. Sunning and
