This and that

HOT. It is hot. Not as hot as France, but pretty hot. However, the sun is shining, the days are long, the fruit is ripe, and the flowers are blooming. I am not yet at the point of complaining about sun. We will see if I change my tune by Thursday.

GREEN. I refer not to the garden, but to my newest project. I think I may have given the wrong impression in my last post, in which I was shown ripping out the top (the lovely Silfurberg by Joji Locatelli). I had to rip back 3 inches or so, but was not giving up. The top is progressing, but I must admit to not doing much knitting these days (see point number 1 above).

NEAT. Emma is home and she is on a mission to de-clutter. (I do not question; I only give thanks.) Doug has been complaining that we can never find a pair of scissors when we need one. Yesterday, Emma cleaned out the junk drawer in the kitchen – you know the one – and when I walked in I saw this on the counter:

It’s the little things, you know.

I hope that you are finding some joy in the little things this week. Keep cool, everyone!

  1. knittingissofun – I started knitting by taking a beginner class Sept '16. I'm now probably an "intermediate" knitter. I've made socks, sweaters, shawls, and scarfs. Even a few test knits. I love fingering weight yarn even though that means a sweater takes Forever! I keep challenging myself to learn new techniques and garments. Check me out on Ravelry. I like to share my 'learnings" as I learn to knit. You are welcome to Share yours.

    “Drawer” don’t you mean DRAWERS!!!! Ugh, I really need to clean out our 6 junk drawers. One is completely filled with users manuals for the frig, stove, dishwasher, kitchenaid mixer, blender, garage door opener, etc!! You know, those manuals we never ever look at! I have cleaned out the 2 main junk drawers multiple times but the gremlins fill them back up almost immediately. How wonderful that your daughter cleaner yours and created a great scissor holder.
