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!

Fancy Doily Faze

I do seem to be going through a fancy doily faze...

I made this one the other day...

And I started this one while Watching Jeopardy! Watson Challenge.

LOL. I totally loved what Ken put under his answer:

"I, for one, welcome our nw computer overlords."

LOL. ^_^

What I Acomplished Today.

Not much.

I added a green border to this Granny Square blanket. It's too narrow, but the dog loves it. =)

We re-angranged my room today. This is my door...

Chair,


And my posters on my (NEW!) bookshelf. Yeah, I love Club Penguin. XD

Books and yarn are organized now! =D

A couple weeks ago, we went to Wal*Mart and I found these two over-sized crochet hooks, 15 and 10 mm. I don't know what the English measures for them are, I find metric is easier to find which hook I need..

Anyway, Momma has been wanting a scarf made of LB Homespun. Since I'm currently in love with Tunisian crochet, I'm making the scarf Tunisian style. BTW, if you are looking for a softer, more floaty version of Red Heart's Boutique Mystic, choose LB Homespun. Best colors ever!

After we went to the Museum yesterday, we stopped by Costco. Dad said to us, "Choose any kind of sweets, and it's for Valentine's present."

We finally we by the books(My favorite part of both Sam's Club and Costco) and I found this book!! I said that it was my sweet. It's really great, and one of the harder projects I really like. But it calls for specialty yarn, and I don't know where anywhere local and within a realistic price range I'll find it... XD


Have any of you ever seen the show, "An Idiot Abroad"?

OH MY GOODNESS.

BEST SHOW.

EVER.

It's on the Science channel, and Daddy and I watch it every Saturday Night at 10 PM.

Here's a clip:


"I want him to hate it... I want him to hate every minute of it for my amusement."

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.

Wednesday Crocheting...

He he he...

I remember when I was in Kindergarden, and when we were reading a story, we'd say, "Dot, dot, dot.."

XD

I have made some more progress with my blanket.
I just LOVE the colors!!!! When I'm done with this, I'm gonna work some more on that Autumn blanket for Momma. It's her favorite WIP of mine....



On Saturday, my Aunt and Uncle(Momma's brother) came over and went to Greensboro. They wanted to shop at Garden Ridge... so I got a new chair for my room!


I totally love it! We had to fix it, though, since it liked to slide around. It's so comfy, I nearly fell alseep in it!

And here is a very, very, mucho-important rule to shopping in groups:


STICK WITH THE PERSON WHO HOLDS THE KEYS TO THE CAR.

And I also got a book, too. ^_^

It's a book that latches onto one of my favorite series, Septimus Heap. I finished it in two hours. *^_^*

Everyone else is chilling out, including Sugar and the Emperor. Even if he is outside. ;-)

Yes, I Am Alive

Just some stuff has been going on lately!

My Blanket progress:
I really love the colors! =P

And i became a pin-cushion today....

Ouch.

And I then got to climb up onto Daddy's trailer to help him re-load some of his boxes. Well, I didn't climb.... I was lifted by the forklift. Dang, I love that thing!

Nothing this week but some curling-under-blankets and school.

And a gallon of water at the least! XD

See y'all soon! Promise!

My New Garden

I cleaned my room today..

And my floor is clean and clear...

And... just check it out. =)

This is the border around the floor... like a garden. :-)

And my ceiling is blue with clouds.

And here is my sun. =)

Even on rainy days, (Like today), I can lay in the grass and watch the clouds! XP

More Granny Squares

Some more granny squares for my newest blanket!

This is my Aunt's birthday gift. =)

Mine was, "Spice It Up!" (I now relize it sounds like Disney's newest show, "Shake It Up!")
But Momma came up with "Hot Moma!" He he. =)

Here's my desk in the office!

And the chair in the office. This is Daddy's chair. =) And on it, is my retro blanket!!!



And Tink got a little too excited with my yarn..... Poor, poor Governor. XD



I really love Sy-Fy. Like Micky's blog. She's posting a great story she wrote herself. Check it out when you wanna read something interesting or when you have a break from crocheting!


We've been watching the Science channel lately. Why? The most HILARIOUS show is on. It's called 'An Idiot Abroad', and me and Daddy LOVE it! It comes on at 10 PM on Saturday nights. You have to watch it. I just can't explain how HILARIOUS it is!


Well, off to crochet some more grannies! =)

I'm Back... With Explanations...

We moved my computer from my room to the office. No pictures yet, sorry.

And since Daddy is working on his truck lately, he hasn't hooked up my computer to the internet yet.

So, here we I are, on his computer.

At least I have some pictures!

Yes, I am starting another blanket. Granny Squares. Only, this time, smaller. XD


And I am joining a Home-school book club that starts sometime in April! The girl who takes music lessons before told me about it, and I told her that I'm in!


And speaking of books, I've been some...


My ALL-TIME, ALL-STAR favorite book. PERIOD!

I Am A Genius Of Unspeakable Evil And I Want To Be Your Class President may seem a bit.... wordy, but it's worth a shot! It's about the child genius, Oliver Watson, who tries numerous things to win his school's election. Hilarious. 100%. I read it three times.

I love this book.

Aza lives in the fictional land of Aorthiya, where both beauty and singing are prized. She only posses singing. When she is brought to the castle for the royal wedding, she is caught in a complex web of lies and tricks with her special talent of illusing. I read it twice.

And my final picture of this post...
Tinker.

Have a great week. =)
