Motorcycle Diaries.....

We interrupt this Knit Blog for an important announcement:
Kathy B rode a motorcycle yesterday.  WHEEEEEEE!  
Fireman Joe was so good to me.  The next time someone says to recall a great experience and relax, I'm going right back to that ride in my mind. 

I wore glasses, see?  My eye is better.  All you funnies out there are right about my knitting an eye patch......
I think I shall.  Then I can be a pirate for Halloween. 

Acrylic Shawl is at the halfway point.  The ribbed ruffle will be a contrasting but complimentary off white color.

Oh, that looks like such fun!!!! I love the shawl.

I'll have to admit that little pup stole my heart. She rolled over for a tummy rub when I walked toward her! She was darling!!!!!!

Well, that explains why my 21 year old daughter turned into a biker girl - she tells me she loves the freedom. I pray continually for their safety when they are riding because here in NY vehicle drivers have killed 10-12 bikers during the short biking season. 2012 was a terrible biker year here! It is soooo sad!

I am glad you had a wonderful time! Remember that feeling when things get stressful etc! I am calling you Mrs. Easy Rider!

You look like a very happy biker honey. Was that before or after the actual ride?

The nearly Thousandth post Contest

(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...

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...
