Knitting withdrawal

By -

The weekend was jam packed with fun, but no knitting! Well, just a tiny bit of knitting, but I need a good fix tonight....

The Nutcracker was just a delight. To go from that grace, to a Major League Hockey Game the next night was a fun jump! We also fit in a neighborhood party, so I am nearly as tired as when I work the weekend... But no complaints! My needles await me....

I may clean out the stash tonight, in hopes of making room for Santa's gifts......

Santa already brought me an early gift.......a new FUJI camera. I never did like the other one and I was only too happy to hear it got lost on the slopes of Park City with Zach snowboarding last week.....
Dear Zach was worried about it, and I couldn't have been happier. By the way, Santa brought me a red one......Here's to much better blog images to come.

I WOULD LOVE YOU TO LEAVE A COMMENT>

Santa is determined to give me a new camera, but I love the one I have and keep saying NO. A little one would be fun, but isn't that why my iPhone has a camera??

 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...
