One Rainy Saturday...........

That's what it was this past Saturday........rain rain rain and more rain.......but that didn't stop the car races. It shortened them but it didn't stop them. I of course woke up with a throat on fire and sniffly and sneezy....Not a good start to opening day for the Mini-Stock's and certainly not a good start for the Nissan's return to Evergreen Speedway for the whole season......I brought stuff to knit, I brought drugs for the cold, food for the drivers, and D even dug out the propane heater that we've had forever, sadly my cold won and I had to leave before D was on the track......Here is what I know, I did see him take second in his heat race, and after the recap he gave me yesterday morning I know he finished third! I'll pay better attention next race since a. I won't be sick, and b. will most likely be on the radios so I'll for sure see the race.

this is the view I had pretty much all of yesterday, laying in bed, watching movies, and letting Quintus break the rules to snuggle with me.........Oh and I made a delicious beef stew for dinner but it was in the crock-pot so it was like zero work.....
Happy Monday
Also, I want to send out congratulations to my childhood friend Deena and her family on the birth of Mr. Oliver, he arrived yesterday and I have to agree with Deena's post, he is perfect!! Welcome Mr. Oliver to your beautiful family!

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...

The 'To-Do' list...

and by 'to-do' list I mean 'to-knit' list. I'm really really trying to get on track with this list and stay deeply focused. It has helped that I have successfully removed all yarn from the living room and into Mr. Brown's Yarn shop on the second floor. Except for the fact that I went in there the other day with a shopping bag and loaded up. Currently in the sidelines to be finished 1. Ledge Trail Vest 2. Twiggy for me 3. 70 Yard Mitt for my other hand Finished those bad boys last night! this is what happens when you use the 10s burst hands free option on your iphone and you're holding said phone with your chinny chin chin. On the List: 1. Twiggy for a Christmas gift 2. Iris the Gourmet Monster but since it's for a boy I'm calling it Orvil. 3. Great White Shart Shark 4. Bosco - for me 5. Stillhouse Vest - for me 6. Woodsy - for me 7. Three Seahawk themed hats as gifts. 8. Gifts for friends... and on and on and on If you...

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
