More of the same

Not much is going on these days. No knitting in over three weeks. I have resisted the urge to go to the yarn store here in Springfield since I have so much yarn and other paraphernalia at home that I can't justify the expense. I asked Kevin to send my knitting bag with his mother when she brought the kids up last weekend but the bag never materialized so I have been making do with the computer and some books and the Ipod! I would update you on more of that topic but if I do that then I will have nothing to post on Sandi's blog and I am slacking off there too! I will post there today too for those of you that are paying any attention! I am headed out today to take care of some errands that need to be run and then it will be more of the same! Thursday I am going to take my girls and Sandi's daughter to the Precious Moments Chapel in Carthage. The last time Sandi and I went was 12 years ago when she was pregnant with Logan! Yikes! Talk about making yourself feel old!

Talk about old...I am in the process of getting stuff together to go back to school in the fall and they want ACT scores from less than 5 years ago....Unfortunately mine were....18 years ago! Thinking about the fact that I took them the year many of the girls I will be competing with for the program were BORN makes me feel old! I still don't think that turning 35 this summer makes me old, it still seems young to me but when you start thinking about things like that it makes you want to reevaluate your stance on that!

I will fill you all in on that progress in the next post....Sandi's blog calls!

Wow

It has been way too long I know and there has been precious little knitting going on but I have a good excuse.... My sister has been in the hospital and I have been taking care of her in Missouri and there is just too much stuff to carry around....If you go to the link for her blog you will see that it isn't that I haven't been blogging, it is just that I haven't been blogging HERE!

I will update the last post though. I finished the capelet for Sandi.
She is here wearing it while we were in Mexico last month. I can't believe we returned from Tijuana only a month ago, it seems like it has been so long. We were home for just over a week when she was brought into the ER and we have been here since then. I promise that I will start knitting something here soon. My friend Tiffany also has a craft and knitting blog and we are trying to get ourselves together to begin a knitting and crocheting prayer shawl ministry at church. We both had the same idea at about the same time and both wanted to talk about it at bible study one week so I think we need to take that as a sign to get off our tushies and get it done.
