It was Fun, But….

April 11, 2011

I’m glad to be home.  I had to stay until late Friday as I had something repaired and it wasn’t finished.  Then  I didn’t leave until Saturday morning due to the rain.  It was bad enough going out in it during the day.  I didn’t relish driving in the dark in the rain for two hours.

TWO DAYS LATER

I finally made it to DMV to renew my license.  I didn’t take all that crap with me so it’s not ‘federally compliant’.  It doesn’t have to be done until 2014, but my license is good until 2016.  Maybe I’ll find it by then.  Or maybe I won’t.  Having worked for the feds for 30 some years and several administrations, I’ll wait and see.  Oh.  One more thing.  I had to pay a late fee of $1.15.  One dollar and fifteen cents!

I just finished my Mermaid Scarf.  Sorry, but there will be no picture yet.  My laptop and good camera aren’t talking again. I still need to steam it so it will look better tomorrow anyway.   And I’ve started sewing my little quilt together.  I don’t know why sewing little squares together is so enjoyable. 

Tomorrow is Rue’s big day.  He’s going to be tutored.  The girls are all laughing at him.

We Ordered a New Desktop

April 1, 2011

It’s been five years, so it’s about time.  Luckily, most of my knitting designs are on my blog.  The thing thar scares me is all those embroidery designs.  Most are on CDs, but I have several that are strictly downloads.  And, of course, they are really nice ones.  ARRGGHH!!!

On to something happy. My next sock club came.  And, again, I love it.  And, again, I can’t decide which pattern to make.  There is only enough yarn for one pair.  Of course, I could make one of each. 

I have figured out the design for the Mermaid Scarf.  It’s not perfect, but it will do. 

 Here’s the back.

And here’s the front.

Happy Birthday, Anne.
