It has been nearly two months since my last post, and nothing has been going on except trying to hie from the hot weather. We're getting ready to head out to the beach next Sunday and I can't wait.
But aside from that, here's some filler-pictures of some family adventures from the past couple of months that I've been MIA.
Yes! We finally finished decking the house for Christmas! You can click them if you want to see them better.
I also had this idea for a project, so I threw down that Granny Stripe and started work on this:
Okay, there's a lot of white sc's... but trust me, I think I know what I'm doing! I hope that this is more of a hint:
No? Oh, okay then.
It was a very wet day today, and I hope it gets colder with it! It's not December until it's 50 degrees or lower! Here I go again, blabbing about the weather.
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!
We saw her today coming home from town. She's old and skinny.
She never liked the car, so I walked to the house, calling her so she would follow me, and I eventually picked her up and brought her in. She was still scared, so we put her on the porch, gave her some food (And Rascal and Squirt).
So, I've been going to the library for a couple(probably more) weeks in row now, and I decided to go on a book dare, reading the first book of series I've been knocking;
Twilight and Harry Potter
The first Twilight book was bareable, though I hated just how much Bella thought of Edward. DISGUSTING.
Harry Potter, though, was really, really interesting. So, I'm reading the whole series now. Turns out, in my library, where the HP books are in hardback ONLY, the books get bigger and bigger with each installment.
....
YESH!!!!!
So, no crocheting has happened, though I've tried a bit of knitting.
It's waaaay too hot to work outside any. 90 degrees and predicted thunderstorm everyday this week, too.
Buuuuuut......
I got my EOG's doneee!
In thirty minutes, I might add.
It would take me a whole week in regular school. I love Homeschooling!
