Yay! New Stove!

Remember a couple of weeks ago when our stove caught fire? Well, we went a bought a new one.

More drama than just that, though.

I HAVE to cook at sometime or another, so it was absolute toture not to be abable to bake anything for two weeks. Someone at Lowe's called us and told Momma that they'd have our new stove at our house yesterday at time from 9(AM)-12(PM). Well, they never showed. At 5(PM) when Momma was reall pi$$ed, she called them and told the store manager about it. And guess what? We now have an emergency-arrived stove and a $60 gift card. Yeppers! Nothing much standing up for yourself! Check out our awesome new stove!

It's shiny!

I just finished this hat last night. I'm now just beginning the scarves that go with it. That was Momma's idea. ^_^

And tonight, I'm also standing up for myself. I ahven't posted about the crochet class June. And for a reason. NO, and I will dare to repeat NO progress on anything. ANYTHING. I'm going in tonight and giving MIss Anuh $20 and tell her:

"I'm going to take the yarn. IT has been sitting here for almost 7 months. Take this $20 as and offering, payment, whatever. I just want this yarn not to go to waste."

Good idea? Have you ever stepped out of your comfort spot for something??

Weird....

In language today, I was to write a sentence containing the verb "Teach". Before I knew it, I wrote:

"I tried to teach my friends how to crochet, but my attempts were in vain."

I wrote that before I even was thinking about the verb. Well, the statement's completely true. Only two girls took off. One is out of the hobby, and the other girl won't even talk to me....

Friends are confusing.

Wednesday Night and blanket!!!!!!

Wednesday was awesome. I FINALLY got a picture of one of the girls' six face srcubbies!

And one of the students made something like a cotton hat, but it's really cool to put your hand in it!

I luv those colors!



Alright, here's some more of my latest blanket:

I really do love the colors of my project bag!


You know, looking back at my pictures, this has been a really colorful post!

New Blanket

Last night I was watching a movie with my dad on TCM- thank goodness TCM doesn't have commercials during the movie, because we watching "The Great Escape." I worked on this blanket:

I have nicknamed this blanket 'Kate' 'cause that's my nickname with only one letter changed! I know that you can't tell right now, but I accidentally sewed a square on backwards! Then I thought, "I'll do that with all of my blankets to sorta 'sign' it! It's my signature on the blanket!" And.... that's why now, I'll sew a square on backwards. =]

My grandma gave me some mason jar covers that are crocheted! She doesn't crochet, so I think that she just bought them or found them somewhere. Anyway, today, I ran into he garage and got a mason jar(If you live in the south, you have plenty of 'em.), brought it into my room, and filled it with my loose ends and extra little pieces of yarn laying around! I then put the green top on it, and here's what it looks like:

And if you look in the background, you'll see Club Penguin! I really thought that my screen saver was on.... ah well.

The crochet class is going well. One student has made up to six face scrubbies! Not the round ones, but small, square ones. And another student's mom once crocheted- and is expecting a baby by Nov.! That student wants the make a blanket for the baby, and I'm trying to teach her, even though she has the wrong kind of yarn. Still trying, though. That's my week, I'll try to update tomorrow on my blanket. Peace, ~Cate

Gib-Gab-Blah-Blah
