Last night I missed my sister’s live wedding webcast and found out this morning that our AC compressor has hit the skids… no air conditioning ALL WEEKEND people…I live in Texas!
Well, my fonts kept crapping out on me at work, making even the simplest of tasks feel like threading a foot through a needle.
About the only bright spot was finally getting my invite to Ravelry! So I imagine I’ll be uploading WIPs, FOs and coming clean about my stash in my damn underwear.
This is my little sister Kelly…
she and her man are on the road from Santa Monica to Vegas to get hitched. The nuptials will be performed by the King tomorrow evening. Her first wedding was like a fairy tale replete with all the stress. It was beautiful, but a lot of work for her. I guess she was looking to just enjoy the moment this time. Good for them. While the couple decided to have a private ceremony…I will be able to check it out via web cast….sign of the times or what?
I spent the better part of last week painting my kitchen cabinets. No I am not done, man did I bite off more than I can chew. I know I’ll be so so happy when they’re done but now I know why everyone grimaced when I told them what I was doing.
I did however finish my Clapotis, a surf inspired baby quilt and begin some socks (or one sock to be exact).
I was at our large and small vet hospital this morning for Roscoe’s annual visit and I noticed that the drywall had been patched in the examination room. I asked if they’d been punching walls, but apparently a bull had somehow got loose, came in the building, down the hall, knocked down a door and proceeded to destroy the wall. This was last Tuesday, glad it was this Tuesday.
Is this not the sweetest photo of my little man? He looks so wise here but I’m sure he was napping.
My Calpotis is coming along nicely. While I am loving the Silk Garden, I must say I would not recommend it for a drop stitch pattern as the mohair catches quite a bit….making me force some fibers to separate. Other than that, it knits up like a dream. It’s been suggested that I freeze the yarn, hmm.
