I finished the Tonks socks!!!! Yes. Really. I did. They were part of a KAL that I signed up for….to knit a pair of socks each quarter. I’m a quarter behind, but it doesn’t matter because I finished the Tonks socks!!!! And, yes, thank you for noticing they are fraternal [...]

HAPPY HOT FRIDAY!!!!

Finally, it’s Friday. A hot Friday at that. I think I have been a pretty good sport about this icky hot weather. Grover went to his cageless kennel for a play day on Wednesday and they spent the day spraying him with water and letting him play in the wading pool. [...]

We all know that I am a slow knitter. This is not news nor is it new. Yet, the eternal optimist dork in me has found a new pattern/kit she absolutely must have. It’s the “Biscuit Blanket”. This is entirely Emiko’s fault. I was just merrily reading her post (she has been [...]
Whew. It’s hot and it’s Monday.

We have been under some sort of heat warning for the past few days. The whole weekend was h.o.t. We’ve had clouds, sun, rain, you name it. But, no matter what, it’s been hot. So, you’d figure I stayed at home and remained cool.
Nah, not so much. My BB is [...]
Oops, I forgot

My apologies for the lateness of the announcement. It’s Friday, but I forgot.
Have a great weekend.
It’s Wednesday and I am random

Mid week. We have had about 6″ of rain in two days. I slosh when I walk now.
So, because I feel random but have nothing to say, I will leave you with my soundtrack.
Another literal video. “Losing my Religion” by REM. It’s not as funny as the first one, but I laughed.
[...]
Let me get back to you on that.

I’m still up and down right now. This morning I am a bit down. The triggers are strange and hard to predict so I never know when I’m gonna be sad or happy.
My brother is going to Montana today and I think that is just wonderful for him. I’ll worry myself silly [...]
Imagine enthusiasm, if you will. Thank you.

I’m back, but not my annoyingly perky self quite yet. So, on that note, I will inform you that it is Friday. This is a Friday. Today. Friday. June 12, 2009. A Friday. Thank you.
I’m not depressed. I’m dealing with my Mom’s death. My brother says he is punishing [...]
I have never been more random.

Leo Kottke and “Hear the Wind Howl”. I saw him in concert in the 70’s and he played it way faster. I sorta loved the faster version, but this version is still amazing. He sings and plays really complicated stuff. I can’t sing and play the piano. I’m impressed.
Thank you all [...]
EZ was right…….again

Yup. She was right. Knit through the tears. That’s what I have been doing, sort of. I have alot of times when I just sit looking straight ahead and woolgather. But, for the most part, other than the grieving, I’m doing pretty well. Poor little pup, Grover, is still [...]
