Weekend

Well had a pretty good weekend. Cleaned the house from top to bottom. My mom didn't make it till Saturday but we went and picked up the girls Friday night. My sister met us in Allan with the both of the and my Pomeranian Bella (who had had hip surgery about six hours earlier ouch Poor Bee!) . So that was fun.I gave Mom her slipper and her socks for her Birthday. Which is today. Happy Birthday Mom! I think she likes them.
Went and picked up our computer last night, hooked it up and realized that we can't find our cord to connect the camera to the pc. ARGHHH... So I guess we will have to go pick up another before I can post pics. My Grandfather is on his way over to bring me bees. I do a form of alternative therapy called bee venom therapy . It's very nice of him to drive from Garland to bring me a jar.
Well onto knitting. I started the skull wristlets, I finished one and started the other. I didn't have a pattern, so next time I think I'm gonna tweak it a bit. But as is they are cute. So I'm just gonna make another. I'm trying my hardest to finish the baby blanket. So in the last two days I have finished 12 rows. Sigh, So at this rate it will be about 3yrs till I finish it. It is double yarn on 10 1/2 I think, so maybe not that long.
I really need to start dh socks but for some reason as soon as the high of buying the yarn wore off so did the want to start/finish. Maybe once I get into it, it will excite me again.
Off to start dinner.

My new blog

I decided I should start a knitting blog, because I've had such a good time reading others blogs...
Until I get my other computer back (thanks English Chris) I won't be able to put up pictures, because the software is loaded on that one. And I'm not sure exactly where that disk is in my house. So pics must wait... So until then....The list of things that I've frogged lately
* Washcloth, green cotton, shamrock design, smooshed into the back of the closet....enough said
* Baby blanket, Caron Simply Soft, white, moss border and bee stitch for the center. I'm going to keep this one, I bought the yarn when I was pregnant. After I lost her, I've not really been motivated to work on it, but I will soon.
* Wristlets with a skull on the hand, lionbrand woolease, black with a purple skull, for a certain sister that just started school, I've already frogged once hopefully that will do it...

Just finished quite a few things
* These in a moss green color..haven't felted them yet, Patons Wool
*Cabled thick house socks, dark red, from One Skein Projects, Patons Decor
*Tea Cozy, for English Chris, in exchange for saving my computer, it was a tad bit sick, Lion brand Thick and quick
* Mug warmer, for above mentioned, birthday present, matches the tea cozy but with his initial on the side
* Baby blanket for my cousin Molly, Caron Simply Soft, Seafoam Green, Diagonal pattern


Haven't started
* Socks for dh...bought the yarn, then got sidetracked...
* Another set of cabled slippers...dark red and ok maybe two dark cream



Ok I need to go to bed now. It's almost 4am and I have to get up somewhat early to bathe the wienies, clean the entire house, and wash the couch. Plus I have atleast 2 or 3 load of laundry to do. My Mom and two littlest sisters are coming for the weekend. Which will be a blast as long I'm ready for them. Our apartment is a little, little so there is no place to hide anything....
