Let's take a drive

On our way home from Indy on Sunday we took a detour. We tried to find some of the houses, for sale in the Vincennes area, that I had seen online. We found one, but weren't that impressed with it. We then found a subdivision I was directed to by

Boiler Up!

The Elder loved the game! Her 1st college game experience was great. The highlight of the game was the Wave. Seems the kids at Purdue have perfected a new way of doing it the last few years. They get it started and then the last time they go around i

I am trying to figure out which skein to use first to knit the Lady Eleaknot. Out of the 20 skeins I have at home I have this motley crew. Knowing how AR I am about color matching, I know I need to have a plan of action. Like isolating 10
A little at a time

That's how I have been taking care of Mr Not Greenjeans. One skein of cotton yarn at a time. It's not something my hands like to knit, even though this Debbie Bliss stuff is soft and wonderful to touch. So I work through one skein at a time,
How do you determine what to knit?

What moves you to pull out sticks and strings and cast on? Is it a color, a texture, a technique, a KAL, a friend's WIP, or what? I would likely say it's color for me. Or not. But if the style is just simple, it is definitely color that pulls
Boring

That's what you get today. I've got nothing for you! Yesterday I was at the shop trying to put back all the yarn that didn't sell. Not all of it got back out yet. Wow, we really took a lot. And we really sold a lot, so why did some of it

Oh my gosh! Did we have fun or what? We did. Friday we set off for Corydon about 3:00 pm. To say we could barely see out of the van is a complete understatement! We checked into the hotel and sat awhile. We called Pam to see where she was, she had th

Honestly! I am around, just not online much. My Mac was in for repair last week and I got it back Monday. And we were gone all weekend. Since getting back I have just not interested in being online. Ho-hum. Guess I am just not up for being on the com
Thank You!

Tracy!! Thank you so much for your comment. I have not heard any of the Dr's mention Margins. Now I will know what to ask about. I know our Derm told us we can wit on it, but I would much rather not. I guess it's easy for them to make decisio
Things that make you go Hmmm. Very long post!

I loved that song when it came out. It is true, there are things in life that make you scratch your head and go, Hmmm. One of those Hmmm moments for me is in the knitting realm. With all the blogs, forums, "commuknities" and such, there is

You know who you are. Some photos to share of the friends who came over Saturday. Some photos were less than stellar, my photography, not their looks, so I don't have a photo of everyone.
ummm...

Hey, back at the helm here. Where is my time going? Seems I am rushing from one thing to the other lately. And tomorrow will be no different. I have no clue how it happens, but my Octobers are always filled to the max, and this year is no different.
Whoa, was no one else alive during the 80's?
Monday, 8 October 2007 5:35 P GMT-06
OK, from the 1,000 daily hits I have been averaging these days, I know the lack of entries wasn't due to lack of visitors. So that can only mean very few of the knitters coming here were born before or during the 80's. I guess only 5 were. An
Ok, permission to cheat!
Friday, 5 October 2007 9:51 P GMT-06
Since not everyone was born before or during the 80's, I give permission for those born after 1989 to cheat. Ask your Mom, older Sister/Brother, Dad, relatives, to help you with the contest.Or just go to Google for the answers. Today was a d

Oooh, I love me some 80's music!! And I love me some You Tube!! And some I-Tunes for finding those 80's tunes!! And thanks to Jack 107.5 FM for playing those tunes and reminding me of them! Right now I am jamming to those and Spin Me Right R
We're adjusting

We're learning to live life without the threat of an ER visit for drugs. At least Hubster is. We're learning to live with poking a finger in both eyes each morning to be able to see. At least Elder is. We're learning to clean our rooms so
It's outta here!

At 11:20 am this morning Hubster hit the sandlot. The aforementioned Kidney Stone was reduced to sand. We had quite a few moments when I thought we were headed back to the ER, like midnight on Saturday and Sunday evening about 7:00 pm. But they passe
