Spring Will Come…But First More Snow

By -


I'm about ready for Spring.  I always have weather issues in March. 
It can snow all of December, January and February but by March, the snowy weather stinks. 
We aren't quite at baseball, and we are about crock potted out. 

I'm knitting in pretty pretty colors because the world outside my window is nearly black and white.  The once white snow is nearly black with dirt and car exhaust. 
I love all you bloggers who show us your earlier Spring.
I am excited for your gardens and your 
world awakening 6 weeks before mine. 
It gives me hope….

I'm still knitting hats because when the wind blows off  Lake Michigan spring can be very very chilly here. 

I'm knitting with an acrylic that feels like lotion is in it. 
It is so soft.  It is Eurobaby's Maypole
oh I can't wait for May.

Possible snow is in our forecase here as well; let's hope they're all wrong! Have a good weekend.

I love winter and I love snow. There. I said it.

I also love the surprise gift I got in the mail today. :D Thank you so much. You're too sweet.

LOVE those tulips. Are they yours or just a picture you found. Purple tulips are my all-time favorites.

Hope you have a good weekend. Stay warm and safe. This sounds like a disastrous storm coming through.

 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...
