What the...........

4:00 a.m. woke up, made coffee, fed the heathens
4:10 a.m. realized the heathens were out of water so I filled the pitcher, walked over to the water bowl lifted the lid on the garbage can and started to pour it in there........
4:45 a.m. done getting ready for work, grab phone next to bed, grab lunchtime knitting, grab the heathens (who always go back to bed without a care after their early morning feeding) toss them outside one more time, pack lunch, pack birthday gift for my knitting friend/co-worker, toss everything in my bag, put the heathens back upstairs, grab knitting bag/purse, lunch bag, and coffee and out the door I go.
5:30 a.m. get to work, remove items from bag and realize that my phone, MY PHONE is not in my bag............(i know this because i dumped the whole thing, the whole thing, out on my desk and while I have four mascara's and a bunny cake flavored lip balm in there, no phone)
horrified

p.s. let me just point out that 9 years ago my life didn't revolve around my cell phone. Now, thanks to the wonderful world of smart phones being separated is enough to cause you to pop a xanax and hope the day goes fast so you can be reunited.

p.p.s This feeling does not apply to my mother who if you asked would not be able to tell you exactly where her phone is at any given moment.

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...

Remembering...

I don't know what karmic cosmic angels were flitting around today but they led me to the coffee aisle at the grocery store. More specifically it led me to the international moments. Which led me to thoughts of my grandmother. I loved her. I knew deep in my bones that she loved me. Grandma loved her International Moments coffees. Just smelling them. Holding the tin (though it's different now) Brings back memories of being with my grandma. She said these were her special treat and she'd make one for me to. Grandma made the best fresh blackberry pie. I know they were fresh because when she came to visit us in Bellevue she'd make us help her pick blackberries. She was the master of Christmas cookies, chocolate chip cookies and raspberry freezer jam. I make freezer jam from time to time and it reminds me of summer visits to Boise. Helping grandma in her garden, making sun tea, and smelling her roses. Sometimes, I buy a tin of Interna...
