Peering Out The Window And Other Such Things

May I Wish For The Cold?

The weather will not make up its mind here. It was 60 last weekend, and, as predicted by Momma, this weekend should be somewhere in the teens. All for my birthday? Yay! I love cool weather! That way I can wear my scarves and hats and fingerless gloves and such!

It's raining today. A very good day to read. And to crochet.

I hope that it's rainy wherever you are so that you don't make to do much more than kick back and knock out a couple chapters.

Finished Ripple

I finally finished my ripple blanket!!

I really, really love how it turned out.

I also have some more pictures of our new kitty, Little Bit. Here she is!

Ah, have a nice day.

Blankets During Summer

I've finished my hexagon blanket. I'm too lazy to put a edging on it, but, it's done.

I also finally started on Daddy's Sweater, but I took a break from it to make this bag:

But really, I've been doing more thinking than crocheting lately.

Ah, maybe there'll be a picture of Daddy's Sweater on my next post.

Hope you like this graphic. I do.=)

Heat Wave

It's been hot like heck here, so I don't go outside during noon/afternoon/any-time-past-10-AM.

Well, out apple trees have been dropping apples, so guess who got to rake/clean them up?

I did.

It was HOT, and I just came in just a few minutes after 10.

With crocheting, I put up some of the big stuff and resorted to quick projects. It's hot, they're lighter, and I was instant results.

So what? The heat's made me inpaient.

Here are my projects from Monday to today:

Ah, I'm gonna go cook lunch. See ya later.

Nature Interlude

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:

'Scarf of Many Colors'

As doubed by Daddy.

What's up?

I've been busy, defiantly busy.

I'm working like mad to get and understand Math so I can get done with 7th grade...

It's hoooooooot today!

I've also been working on this, it's something that I'll use when ti gets cold again...

Momma's favorite windchime fell and broke, and this is all that's left. =(

And Sugar has been sleeping more. She's getting older, defiantly.

I also get a day off this week! I'm seeing Soul Surfer with McMonster. I can't wait to see her, it's gonna be awesome!

Well, I should be getting back to Math so I can get it done. Yikes, I'm neck-deep in trigonometry.....

Well, I should post again soon. Maybe Saturday. See you then.
