To the Ghosts of Knitters Past: RIP

By -



Be careful if you knit on Halloween. The ghosts of knitters past like to visit and play tricks with your knitting.

Looks who I found in the knitter graveyard:May they R.I.P no more

Wanda B. Knitting
Pearl Downunder
Shirley U. Spin
May B. Rippit
Will U. Putdown ("those needles")

If only we could trick or treat for yarn!

Im holding off for my BabyRuth until just before bed........maybe. What are you going to indulge in?


I'll talk to you in the comments. :)

I ate a reese's peanut butter pumpkin at work. Shame on me since I am diabetic--but I rarely indulge and my sugar dropped to 59 It sure was good.

My grandson is spending the night and I took him around the neighborhood. Now I'm trying to be a good Grandma and not snitch from his bag-he's snug in bed now.

We had a party tonight with lots of tastey goodies... But to trick or treat for yarn would be much better than candy. Not to mention less fattening. Lol.

I forgot to tell you all: a Payday goes so well with some chardonnay. Little salt, little sweet. Give it a try!

I ate candy at GD#3's birthday party. Did you know that if you eat 20 of those mini Milky Way's at a birthday party with 12 teenagers they are calorie free?

Very funny. : )

I only buy candy that I won't eat, but that the kiddies like - (skittles, starburst, etc) so I won't be tempted. Fortunately, my boys were at their Dad's house this year, so I wasn't tempted with their candy. Of course, this morning I wanted something sweet so I baked oatmeal chocolate chip cookies. Mmmmm.

Happy Halloween!

No candy in these parts. I finally reconciled that we don't get kids knocking. And having candy around was not for them, it was really for me!

(just another baby legging in the image. Using my socks yarns a little differently) I think that blogger may not have correctly counted all the posts I've written. I've been posting since 2004 so I guess it is possible. I'm not going to go back and count them all. It says this is post 987. So we'll go with it. Im having a little contest for the milestone, but I have had writer's block since I decided on the 1000th post contest. So to take the pressure off, we are just going to do this now. :) I get crazy with pressure around events of all kinds. I just do. To enter: Please please please only leave a comment about this post on this post. Im much too flakey to search around differnt posts, afterall there are nearly a thousand (did I mention that number already? sorry....) Leave a comment telling me anything about Lace. If you dn't know anything about Lace, ask someone and share their knowledge. Do tell us who gave you this lace advice, to make it f...

Every Once in a While I Might Post

 Is that vague enough for you?  It has been a too busy complicated Spring.  I had no energy to blog.  All is well now, so I can share some things with you:   1. When I shoot photos of the moon I think of Dear Teresa.  Gone too soon. She took fabulous moon pictures.  2. I did not see one shooting star last night.  I only got up for a few moments around 3 a.m.  The local weather guy said he saw a few quick faint ones.   3. How can I can have one grown child in Oklahoma under flood watch, and One Child in Mexico under hurricane watch?  On the same day.  Tis true.  4. What have I knitted lately?  I am pretty sure I've ripped more than I've knit.  I ripped out a shawl that I was making up.  It was cotton and pretty.  I need to follow a pattern.  5. I was trying to make socks and decided to make mittens instead.  I haven't worked a thumb in a long time.  I may have to frog it too.  So I ha...
