The Way I See It

By -

I got 11 extra hours of sleep Sunday night. I was off this workend! It was glorious, it was heavenly.... it was restorative.....

This is the Yarnmarket Twirl Ruffled Shawl Ruffle. Radar needed to investigate...and get in the image. I am almost finished with the ruffle part. Crazy right? I'm knitting something new! The short rows are kind of fun. THe yarn is stash and isn't great but I bought a boatload of it. The Way I See it I can knit it up and if I love it, I'll buy new yarn for a gift shawl and reknit another...

The way I see it not one Illinois Team got into the NCAA. The Way I See it, No heartbreak ahead!

Which way are you seeing things this morning?

The way I see it... kinda blurry, hehehe, I think I did too much close work yesterday. When my eyes get tired, I see blurry.
The way I see the rest of the week? Busy. The grandkids are coming for spring break! woohoo!

The way I see it. . .is through allergy swollen eyes, and I don't see much relief in sight.

I'm sure Radar can get that yarn ball skittering across the floor with one swipe of a paw.

I see a scarf pattern I want to read. I have a busy meeting-rich week ahead, but warm afternoons for dog walks to offset those!

I am a Jayhawk by marriage and I was not upset when they lost in the Big 12 tournament, a much quieter weekend for me. Now we start all over in March Madness. If they aren't going to win it all I hope they go out early!!!! Glad you got some rest.

The way I see it, I may as well give up trying to get anything done tomorrow because my kids are going back to Chicago. I will be missing them and thinking about them all day.

The shawl is going to be beautiful!

I'm definitely feeling the positivity. It's a whole new quarter for me, so I'm going to make things count and try to be on top of it all! Yeah, maybe I say that every quarter but...

What is that groovy ball? Is that a yarn ball holder? Amazing! I've never seen one of those!

So nice to get that extra sleep isn't it? We set our clocks ahead and I've slept in every day since. The beauty of the homeschooling lifestyle! :)

Glad you got some time to refresh and rejuvenate.

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...
