Visit Home.......

It's fall in the Midwest. My favorite time to be here, and I will be for a week, helping out around the house, playing with my nephews who now that they've been in school for a coupls seasons can carry on quite the conversations...........like where do your brains go when the doctor takes them out.....quite honestly I don't know but you know they're going to make me google it tomorrow right?

So tomorrow my 'to-do' list is Visit mom in the hospital, deliver a hat to her friend that I am making for him right now, try and find the dry cleaners on main street in hopkins to pick a sweater that she had fixed, the beauty of this errand is that I never knew Hopkins had a main street......so that'll be fun.....but best of all.......I get to enjoy the changing of the leaves and share them with you......mom is fine by the way........a not so minor surgery that went really well.....so all of us are ecstatic.............




this is my nephew dog, Rupert....he is very helpful in the kitchen......he loves to do the dishes......





my 'brother' Jake.......

the road home....

Life in the Time of Covid

I have officially been working from home. Staying home.  Self-Isolating.  Safe Distancing.  For three four months.  My last day at my office was March 12.  If I look back and track how this transition has gone it's roller coaster.  But if you really want an accurate accounting of how my time has been spent These pictures sum it all up Thank you Anna Hrochavec for your amazing inspiring patterns Happy End of June. May the odds be ever in our favor for July. Naked Gnome, Tiny Island, Unicorn tiny cat octopus. one of my favorites fried eggs. Seriously how can you not be in love with these guys Ragnar by special request of my husband who is watching Vikings Tiny Parrot. Need to make another and send it to my nephew Ragnar likes the squirrel and dino Ragnar thinks this tiny cat is an attach tiger but it's just a cat. Sumo still waiting for his opponent Parrot meet Dragon *Drago ...

Knitter Down...I Repeat, We Have a Knitter Down...

It's probably not that dramatic, well maybe it is, who can say for sure....but I can say this, right now from my elbow to my wrist is some gnarly pain that was flared last night after knitting 6 rows of the Shawl...SIX ROWS and then WHAMMO! so much pain. This isn't the first day I've had this, I've actually been ignoring for a few days ...okay, I've been ignoring it for a couple weeks but this is the worst it's been...So, I've made inquiries as to which doctor to see and am waiting to hear back to make an appointment...while I wait ice packs, and copious amounts of pain meds (don't worry by copius I really mean, recommended daily dose) are being taken with the shedding of a few tears while I fondle my knitting... stay tuned...this can't possibly last forever xoxoxo c. p.s. Fati...don't worry I have a plan if this whole wrist issues blows out of control...
