Next on my list.......

I think they are the cat's meow.....these No Button Baby Booties on Ravelry by MixtapeMemories. I asked Karen, my teach, to knit up a pair and figure them out for me. I have some car knitting ahead of me.....I hope to knit these booties up then! Have you knitted them??? Aren't they clever?

For all of you playing along with Caroleknits and her bird lists: i have one word: LOON. Carole's tuesdays lists are clever.....

Birdsong is pretty darn clever too. She has been at burrobird.typepad.com and I love her slant on things. She is so darn natural and organic. She's starting a dye club. Go read about her new venture at: naturescauldronfarm.com . You could get in on the ground floor. Do you dye?

I wonder if I will dye or spin first in my life??? What do you think? Dye....spin.....dye....spin....I think I am supposed to pluck petals off a flower while I say this...dye...spin...dye...spin.

Why yes I am drinking champagne at 3 15. We all lead different lives and hours.......There are mornings when I get off the night shift when I'd love a glass of bubbly. I am usually in such a bee line to hit my bed, that I cannot even stop to drink a glass of wine. But one of these mornings, Monday's that is, when I am done for a few days, one of these Mondays I'm hitting the bubbly before bed....
I already dream the craziest things.

Speaking of crazy dreams....
I've only had two sips of the etoh for goodnesssakes, this is still me writing.....

Anyhow. Another night nurse and I were talking in the wee hours of Bin Laden capture and kill, about our dreams. She and I have had very similar dreams. We both dream we havent fed a baby all night and the shift is ending. We dream the elevator at work lets us off on the wrong floor. And ....this is amazing:
We BOTH dream that we took a baby home for the weekend and have to sneak it back into the unit. Cmon how odd is that??? We have never discussed dreams before with each other. I find this so very interesting. Do you and your coworkers have the same dreams????



I WOULD LOVE YOU TO LEAVE A COMMENT> (steps 1559, but I am using a funny counter...i dont think it really is measuring my full steps...but I am too lax to fix things. I'll just go from here. I walked over a mile and a half outside in the freezing grey miserable May Chicago weather...)

Hmmm, are these booties for the baby in your dream that you slipped out of the nursery? Do we need to talk?

My co-worker who talks about dreams is my MIL, and she has ODD dreams, so no... we don't dream about the same things.

Those booties are darling!

Cute booties. I sometimes discuss dreams with one of my co-workers but they are never similar. She has on occasion dreamed about someone in my family but I've never dreamed about someone in hers.

Very cute! I'm going to test these out to see whether my antepartum moms could do some. Thanks so much for the link. I used to dream of losing my class when I was teaching, or not being able to open my locker combination and now sometimes of not finding my choir music....weird how the sleeping minde works, eh?

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...

Dear buddy nurse and spay neuter pal Linda, came to visit yesterday.  We knitted. We laughed.  We shared books we are reading. She Showed me her scarf.  It looks like a shawl but it is a scarf. Here is her yarn choice. And the( OUCH) price.   It makes her happy to knit.  If Linda's happy I'm happy.  I dont' know the pattern and neither does she.  Her dog literally shredded her pattern.  She was at a point where she had memorized the easy part and she's nearly finished.  So there you go, anyone know the pattern? You are all so sweet about the move and the house. This morning I got my cuppa joe and headed to the porch to write you.  In the distance, my nearest neighbor, whom I can see through some trees.... well one of their teens came out, stretched, peed on their lawn casually, and then laid in his hammock for 5 minutes.  I'm sure he's not the first boy to do this.  I'm not even sure he's the...
