Notice something?
look . . .

Yup, the blue line is moving. Yay! The box is due to be shipped and I should get it Wednesday (if all goes well). I will then knit my cloth and pop it into the mail the next day. The next person should get it soon after.

And, the race is on . . . whoot.

One sock is off the needles – this is a Spillyjane design and I love how it turned out. This is the first time I have knit socks from a chart (rather than have the pattern written totally out for me) and that was a bit of a challenge.

But, I think the finished product looks way cool. I need to hurry and cast on the second sock though, so this one won’t be an orphan.

The yarn was gifted to me by a fellow raveler – and the pattern was a freebie – so I am twice blessed.

And . . . this is not a dish cloth! I know, breaking out of my rut, huh? Not to worry – I’ll be cranking out those dish cloths again in no time.

Lessa has some exciting news . . . run, don’t walk, your fingers over and check it out.

You know you wanna!

When it’s all over . . . . come back and tell me how you . . . . and don’t forget to thank lessa.

My dental hygienist called me boring today . . . she schedules all her dental clients for an hour for their cleanings.

Mine took 20 minutes.

Spent a lovely Saturday morning with all my granddaughters and one of the mamas (sing it with me – We are Fam-i-ly . . . all my grand-girls and me).

This was taken in front of a church the next town over – we had gotten a tip that there was a pretty good “garage” sale going on so stopped by – hit the jackpot for the older girl. (whoop – whoop!)

The littler girls and I stayed outside and got this picture. 😉

Why, yes . . . I DO live in Alaska – and I DO make my own fun. (heh)
