Lazy Saturday

Today the WGB helped his friend with his move to a place 2 hours away...so I gardened a bit today, and cleaned up the patio so I can start to enjoy the flowers and have coffee in the morning...and sit and watch the garden. It is peaceful when it is cleaned up and pretty.

I did most of my laundry today, since I didn't do any last weekend. And I still have to PURGE my clothes!

I worked a little on the wrap...and caught up with my taped programs...not much happening really...

A Full Worm Moon

As my friend Bella Drama pointed out it is a  Full Worm Moon - March Moon As the temperature begins to warm and the ground begins to thaw, earthworm casts appear, heralding the return of the robins. The more northern tribes knew this Moon as the Full Crow Moon, when the cawing of crows signaled the end of winter; or the Full Crust Moon, because the snow cover becomes crusted from thawing by day and freezing at night. The Full Sap Moon, marking the time of tapping maple trees, is another variation. To the settlers, it was also known as the Lenten Moon, and was considered to be the last full Moon of winter.

It was a day! I for one am glad to be sitting in my warm house with something to knit! This weekend is going to blast by...

Deep SIGH....

The wrap is moving along...I am going to get to the point this weekend when some of it comes off the needles! SCARY...but I am not quite there yet.

Macro Shot

...GAH...

So I am still having anxiety attacks...mainly at night while I am trying to fall asleep. Gah...I don't understand why I am having so many of these!

Tonight I went over to a lady I know from works house, she is 82 and boy does she have history! She was a Rosie the Rivitar! AND an amazing woman! So fun to listen to her stories! We actually have a lot in common. She is crusty but she has a heart of gold...

I think I will make a point of stopping by her place at least once a month! And bring some goodies! She was SO relieved! Today she found out she doesn't have cancer... Whooosh! Good thing! I don't think I could have handled that news today! Now when I leave her, she tells me she loves me. What a sweetie!

AND I found out SHE is the reason we have this War Memorial in the city! She fought City Hall for it! She was so mad that the parks people had planted YELLOW flowers for the dedication ceremony, that that is the color of cowards...I told her it would have to take intelligence for them to do that on purpose and believe me THAT is not the case! They were just stupid!  She couldn't believe they did that, she wanted to rip them out during the ceremony. I can't say I can blame her for her feelings...some times people just don't get it!

Progress...from the Frogging

Apparently the luck of the Irish are with my knitting today...

Knitting...

Well I ripped out Lucy's scarf...and re-knitted it...still don't like it...so I have to send it on...I can't make it any better than it is...

 

AND this is how I was knitting! Seems Fatty HAD to be ON me! AND I started the Culture Fushion Wrap KAL...from what I can tell there are 32 of us doing this?

Windy walking

A goal for the weekend was to take a good long walk to catch up on my exercise. The WGB and I went out to Shoreline and the Baylands and had about a 3.5 mile walk in the wind! It felt like we were walking with weights with that wind blowing and I was happy to have a hoodie on so my ears didn't burn! I might not have looked runway but I was warm and didn't hurt! LOL It was a beautiful day!

Count Down

Lisa has done it again! If you love collage and mixed media you may have heard about her! She is prolific! I love her art and her training! She is having a count down again! To take part in it, go here!
