IT isn't a lost day if you can continue to knit....

 Oh boy.  I'm having back/flank pain this morning.  All my plans for today are on hold.....

Not sure what this is all about. Fireman and Al says its muscular.....I hope they are right.  

Beatles is happy I'm hanging around the house. 
Im missing a nurse friend's retirement luncheon at Cheesecake Factory...this doubles my pain.....

I do think I can Knit, however, so all is not lost. 

 TO thank you for coming over today for a blogvisit,
I'll post another recipe favorite :

 This is not my recipe and I've lost the author...sorry!

 Lemonade Chicken

 Grease a baking dish
Place several boneless skinless chicken breasts in the dish. 
Mix 6 oz frozen lemonade with 1/3 cup soy sauce and 1 tsp garlic. 
Pour the liquid over the chicken. 
Top with Pineapple slices. 
Cover with foil.   Uncover the last 10 minutes 
Bake at 350 and 40 minutes

 Serve over rice. 


I made this so often for Al and Zach they eventually stopped being excited about it.  That was only after a very long run though!

Hope you're feeling better. It's finally supposed to snow tonight, so come on over and enjoy the hot tub. We can change out the jet packs to suit your back pain...

Well, first of all, feel better! Good that you are taking it easy.

The expression on that kitty face is priceless!

My prescription for you: rest, knit, and nap - not necessarily in that order. If symptoms improve, eat two or more pieces of chocolate twice a day. Call and schedule a follow-up appointment in a week if symptoms persist.

Your recipe sounds interesting.

Sorry to hear you are in pain!! It is at times like this that I grab the Salon Pas patches and stick them all over the painful area! I don't know if they help but it makes me feel better to be pro-active. Shoo pain!! Hope you are better soon. Keep knitting.

I will try the chicken. It sounds yummy!

I hope that you feel better :( Have you tried going to a masseuse? A massage is really good for muscle pain :)

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...
