Odd thought...

So big mail fun today.  Unexpected bag from Chewy.com with a water bottle and a beach towel and flip flops.  Just because. Thank you Sydney at Chewy.com.  I love being a blog reviewer for you anyhow.  

This is Linda at my LYS with her latest creature feature.  She knits up these guys and they are amazing.  I'm in the mood for a fresh new knit.....I have to finish my second necklace and then I'm open to ideas. 
I have this odd desire to knit a Christmas Stocking in June.  Should I go with it?

You should knit whatever you want. I can't imagine having to move and go through 50 years of accumulations. You never said why you were moving? Curiosity killed the cat. ((hugs)), Teresa :-)

Why not knit a Christmas stocking. . .no stress to finish at the last minute like you'd have in the winter.

 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...
