A Cowl of a Tale

So... we're back. Yep. I managed to get some photos at the beach. Here are a few of them worth showing:





Sorry they're so bad. I took them on a Kodak, not with my Canon.

I have been crocheting, too, and here's two recent projects.



Yep. Not much else. So, how've you guys been while I've been AWOL?

Trying to Adjust

A lot of things have been happening lately, and a lot of them scared me. I've been trying to deal with them, and I'm almost there. Thanks for hanging in.

Happy December!

It's December! Wow! I can't believe it.

Well, I kinda can.

We've been putting up Christmas decorations around the house. I'm living in Christmas! I wish I could leave the stuff up all year 'round. LOVE IT!!!!



Now, there's something that happened a couple weeks ago that I keep forgetting to tell you guys.

It was a rainy Wednesday, and I had to go to my orthodontist for my braces. Well, Daddy came with me & Momma. After going for braces, we always go to the Aldi's that's on our way. I was crossing back into the parking lot after returning the cart, when something like a traffic jam happened. I half expected my parents to come pick me up at the front of the store, and they were, but a car raced in behind them, only to make a complete mess out of an ordinary situation. I realized that They'd have to go to clear it up, so I started running to the car. I was skidding in the puddles by the time I reached the car, I swung open the sliding door and was in my seat in what seemed seconds. To complete it, Daddy sped up as we headed out of the parking lot. Then he narrated: "And the red Dodge van made its getaway after she was escaping from the mad Dr. Grief." Such an Alex Rider moment. Now, when I think of Adli's, I think of Alex Rider.


Okay, I just HAD to tell you that story.



Not much crocheting going on, just a little bit more worked on that Granny Stripe and then I put it in a project bag. I pulled out some Christmas colors, and I'm now working on a bag that I had thought up.

I've been too busy with Christmas to take any pictures! Ha!

So, this post was to remind you that I'm still here, still crocheting. Next time, I PROMISE, I'll have pictures. See you then!

Let It Snow!

It's snowing!

Not here, at any rate.

It's freezing, though!

I've been crocheting, yes.

Just some potholders.

Front,

Back.


I AM IN LOVE WITH MAKING POTHOLDERS!!!

This is what I've been doing since my last post. I've seriously lost interest in that blanket. I don't know why.

This is another picture of Little Bit... She's so sweet and so funny. She jumped onto my chair, then Momma's, then the side table, all to just try and jump onto the fishtank. She hit the glass head-on, fell into the bush, and walked away like nothing happened!



Kinda like Daffy in this Looney Tune.

ETA: Okay, not so much like Daffy.

Movie, Pizza & Blanket... Best Combo

This isn't  avery good picture, but it's a rich, dark green & red.


And this is the movie::::



We've been watching the Harry Potter series since I finished reading the books, and we're now on Deathly Hallows Part 1.

Part 2 comes out on the 15th.


Well, I better go.

Talk to you later.

TapTapTapTapTap... Sigh

Nope, still haven't done a thing.


I'll might not post until July, since we're heading to the beach next week. Hopefully, having the sand between my toes and the wave's rush in my ear will give me some kind of inspiration.


Talk to you soon.

Pacing the Floor

I can't think of anything to do lately.

Well, more like I feel like doing nothing.

Not crocheting, reading, writing, play my guitar;


ANYTHING.




Gah.




I'll post again when something more exciting happens or I finally touch a crochet hook.

The Best Days Of The Week Are Thursdays & Fridays

Seriously, it's true.

Yesterday, I got in some yarn for a new project. It's a bunch of thread, so I don't know if I should be calling it yarn or not... he-he.

I also got a new lamp for my room on Wednesday.

I watched highlights of the royal wedding this morning. Mainly, just the balcony kiss. Her dress was BEAUTIFUL.

And.... I found this movie trailer:

Smithsonian

This weekend we headed out to the Smithsonian in Washington, DC. It was awesome.

The sole inspiration for the trip was the crochet coral reef. I took plenty of pictures:














I took a ton more, which I'll post during this week!

Bu the crochet coral reef was NOT all that we went to see!

 The Wright Flier. *GASP*


 
(Left to right) Daddy, Momma, and Me!





I think that this is the best picture I took there!


It was a blast going there.

I experienced a lot of new things.

Like crowds.
And riding the subway.
And crowds at the subway.
And a $40 pizza.

I'd suggest for anyone to go there, but I would suggest to go on the subway(or the metro, whichever you prefer) only to my worst enemies. It's crazy.

What did you do this weekend?

Well, while you answer that question, I'm going to pamper my feet. Let's just say that I walked more this weekend than I ever have in my entire life.

Oh, I also found out something last night!

There's gonna be a season TWO of 'An Idiot Aboard'! It's the 'Bucket List', and I can't wait!

Just Some More Browsing

And I found two really cute things.


And here's something that I'd might try on our new sewing machine:

I LOVE the kitty wristpad.

It's going to be a rainy weekend. =/
Aw, it could be worse.

More With My Shawl

I got a nice start on my new shawl. =)

Perfect to do this weekend, while it rains.


Tink decided to come in this morning. It must be too cold for him. XD


Even today, I can't believe who I found on Twitter...



They added him for a book promotion, I think. Who cares? He's hilarious!


Waiting until June...

Until then, what are you crocheting now?

Rainy Friday

How's your Friday going?

Last night, I finished my headband!

I absolutely LOVE this button!

This morning, we checked my doilies, and they turned out wonderful!

And I also hund up some new posters in my room.

Anyone know how big of a Taylor Swift fan I am?


I am a very big fan.

LOL.

Have a great Friday!

Urrrrgggg...

I think I'm sick...

My temperature was normal, but I feel kinds sick.. Ah, well.

I worked some more on my doily.


Pretty Pinwheel! Ha ha. XD

I also switched between crocheting a reading this evening.. I'm re-reading the Septimus Heap series. It's that good of a book series!

Mom likes the granny blanket, even if it is too narrow!

And I finished the doily!

Momma suggested that I start a 'Hope Chest'. I remember reading about that in a book, and I kinda like the idea, since Momma has too many doilies, anyway. (They're ones that she has collected over the years.)

How's your evening?

Jeopardy! FTW!

Adventures For The Day...

Momma insisted that we go and check out the newest exhibit at a museum in one of the towns near us.


I was a bit nervous(For no reason at ALL), but the car ride calmed me down...






Preddy Boulevard




When we got there, I swear...

EVERY KID IN THE STATE SCHOOL SYSTEM WAS ATTENDING THE SAME EXHIBIT, TOO.

So we walked around, killing time....





This thing killed the most time!


And I also found a cool diagram of a shark...


And we finally decided to bear the line of one million screaming kids to get inside the exhibit!

Day well done, huh?


I think so.
