Holy Cow!

I didn't realize that the month is almost over and that it had been a month (almost) since I last post. Well I put some pictures up but forgot to hit post on them. What have I been doing? Working for sure, mom came to town last weekend and that was fabulous. I miss her more during the summer. She's home in Minnesota and has her gardens and my brothers and nephews to keep her really busy. When she's in Arizona I talk to her almost every day, so this is a bit of an adjustment.
There was a 2 week period there where the pollen count was obscene and I was incapacitated because of my allergies. I believe the term my doctor used was, 'wow, your sinuses are really angry". I don't have much to say.
I've been working on some different projects. I've got some bad sock juju going on right now so if there are any socks in the pictures below you can be assured that they have been ripped out. However, the hat that the bear is sporting is number one in a series of 2 so far. I plan on more.
the only sock not frogged is monkey at the end.
I'll post more tomorrow
i'm a bit sleepy and I'm working up the courage to look up my test results.
Happy end of June!! I promise July will have many more posts.
I'm starting to feel the urge to write more.........minus the haymaker pale ale...it is sunshine in a bottle.

SSYC... My First Official Yarn Crawl...

It's true... I've never actually participated in a yarn crawl or LYS tour. When I worked at So Much Yarn I had the pleasure of working the weekend of the LYS Tour but I've never done it. Well, the SSYC, South Sound Yarn Crawl covers 9 shops that aren't included for whatever reason in the Seattle LYS Tour that covers around 25 shops in the area. Maybe they're too far off the beaten path. It's not because they aren't in Seattle because there are shops way way way out of town that are included in the Seattle LYS tour. Whatever the reason, it's not important. What is important is that Mary and I both took Friday off and hit the road. I caught the 7:15 Ferry to Kingston, Arrived at Mary's about 8:00. Mary and I have the same china. Mine came from my Grandmother, her's came from her mom. Tried making friends with her fluffy dog Mae. Someday she'll come to love me, for now I'll respect her tenative personality and love her fro...

Happy Birthday Mom!

I know I know, I'm a couple days early but I wanted to make sure you saw it before you sailed off to the deep blue sea... Literally. I've been thinking for a few days on what I would write for you on your birthday. How to best express just how amazing you are and how amazing it is that I got you for my mom. You've given me so much in my life that I am grateful for, that to try and put it into words would take a lifetime. I love the time we spend together. I love the way we laugh together. We've come so far and our adventures aren't over yet. I love you mom. Happy Birthday

I could have used another week...

Last week was wonderful... D and I traveled to Scottsdale, AZ to spend time with Mom and G as well as attend some Cactus League Spring Training Baseball. The weather was amazing (after Sunday and Monday's rain storms) High 80's the rest of the week, and sun sun sun and more sun... Waking up in the morning and being able to lounge on the patio with my coffee. Wearing shorts for a week... and finally... Finally I got to see a cactus bloom! We always come to early in the season for it and it bums me out, but not this time...Nope, this time I got to see it. And it was wonderful more pictures to come as well as a 'Favorite Things' post on what I love to do when I am there...
