possibilities...

It's possible that this weekend I'll finish baby blanket #3.

It's possible that I'll buy at least one skein of yarn, possibly more but that depends on who is with me at the time.

It's possible that I'll end up in a Dirndl Skirt dancing on a table swinging beer steins around.

It's possible that if I'm in a dirndl, D will be in lederhosen.

It's guaranteed that there will be no photos of this...

It's Oktoberfest weekend and anything is possible!

Things that are a given:

1. I'll be visiting a new yarn shop over the weekend called Wooly Bully Yarns. I'll give a thorough report as soon as I'm done there!

2. I will be making french toast casserole and monkey bread this weekend.

3. Beer will be consummed. Possibly in large quantities.

4. There will be singing, dancing, dirndls and lederhosen, not necessarily gracing this body but they will be there.

5. I'm anxiously looking forward to my first bratwurst of the weekend... note I said first. I love a


good bratwurst!

I promise we'll have fun.
I promise I'll take an alarming amount of pictures.
I promise that I've already started working on D to get us moving way earlier than we need to, the negotiation is still on-going. It's possible that I've suggested that I would just meet him there later in the day...

it's wrong to laugh at this but i do, every single time. i refer to it as
his private dining.

On a side note, I think Mr. Brown is getting better but then I think he's not. I'm not sure. We had to switch from the soft sided cone to the hard plastic ones. The hard plastic are the ones he's known for getting out of and destroying. So far though after a few tips from Washington Boxer Rescue the cone is still on. Hopefully he'll make good strides over the weekend. His follow up is next Wednesday. If it's not better by then they'll have to do the procedure again and I'll probably have them sew his eye shut for a couple weeks to let it heal...
when he's mad at me he looks away like this till he remembers he's hungry

by the time this is all done, he's going to hate me.
but I feed him so he'll love me again eventually...

Happy Thursday!!

ps. Remember you can also find me on Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, and Ravelry in the America's Knitting Group all under Carmelknits.

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...
