One Week to Dragon Swap Deadline

By -


Hey swappers, you have one week left to get your yarn, pattern and dry skin cure in the mail to your partner. I'm halfway there....

As for me, I was almost home this morning, bleary eyed and ready for bed when I realized why I hadn't gotten stuck behind a school bus yet...
Martin Luther King Day .. this means no school around our parts for the day. I really get cranky when school buses delay my ride home on Mondays! My head hit the pillow in record time.

Tonight some boring knitting that I can show you tomorrow. I'm in the mood for easy .....and it is another project that uses up leftovers. What are you knitting tonight?



I WOULD LOVE YOU TO LEAVE A COMMENT>

I'm ready and just waiting to ship! I love the two dragons in the picture.

Tonight I'm working on the Sourball socks while listening to James Patterson's Judge and Jury. Nice quiet evening with lots of murder and mayhem!!

No knitting for me. Seems the regular dose of Alka Seltzer cold puts me under for about 24 hours. Who knew?!

Those are such cute dragons, but I did find a pattern on Knitty for a different one: http://knitty.com/ISSUEwinter06/PATTnorberta.html It looks like lots of stitching in the end though..... My box is about ready too; now if only it would quit snowing so I could get down the hill to mail it!

 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...
