Still Crazy After All These Years…
Well, school started—for AJ and for me. I don’t know where the last month has gone, but it sure has flown by!
I’ve completed several knitting projects this weekend. First Kael’s Baby Blanket was completed. I can’t wait to photograph it. My friend Theresa has this gorgeous round crib that I think will make a suitable backdrop. I’ve also got an idea for a picture with one of our quilt bears and an antique rocking chair at my aunt’s house. After I get some decent pictures, I’ll get everything finalized for submitting to knitty for possible publication. Because of this, I can’t show off the pictures in advance. I also felted a vase for my One Skein Gift Exchange on my knitting parents group and a bowl I’d like to put out in Theresa’s shop for sale. I love the way they both came out!
I read Mary Monroe’s God Don’t Like Ugly this past weekend (still have 22 pages left in it) and will start the sequel, God Still Don’t Like Ugly tonight if I stay awake to finish book one! I also read a very cool mystery by Maggie Sefton for my WhoDuKnit mystery readers/knitters group, called Knit One, Kill Two. There are two more to find and read in that series. I really like her writing—good plot twists. 
AJ is thriving at his new school/daycare. He’s even heading toward potty trained—he’s got peeing down, if we could just get him to poop somewhere other than his pull up, we’d be in business! The school is a great fit for him and we’re really glad we made this change.
I haven’t heard if my Collection Mapping project has been approved, so I may just be observed by walk throughs this year. Given everything else going on, if that’s how it works out, I’ll be all right with that. I’ve still got plenty of time to work on this goal.
Life has been crazy and we’re hoping on adding to the craziness in a while. We’ll see what we see on Friday! sigh I hope we see only good things.
