Time's Up

It's Halloween and the costume is not exactly ready. I mean...close. Really close. Just a few stitches here and there, some makeup tweaking....
And no knitting has been done since I finished the hat belonging to Bonnie. I haven't been able to look in my knitting sack, where there is a ball of dark green ready to go.

Sunny

After a week of constant rain (ok, one day didn't rain but I was cleaning house so I didn't get to look at it) today is sunny and windy. I am enchanted with the gold and blue morning out there! I love clouds, though, and all their shapes and types but a clear sky today is better than all the mammatus.
I was running around cleaning things and moving boxes in closets when dad called to my mom, come look at these clouds. I raced for my camera, and admired the sky after a storm had rolled through. No one enjoys a good bunch of clouds more than I do. I predict weather with clouds, my most famous prediction being, "Fish scales. Rain's coming in!" I can't explain why or where I learned this, but it's pretty accurate. Of course I live in Oklahoma. I could say anything (Fish scales. Gonna be windy- hot-cold-snowy...) and I could be close.
Ah! So much to do!

Success

I am delighted to be home after doing some real good at my mom's. She is having company and now the house is going to be ready for it. I hope! I'm sure she'll get into something else, I just don't know what. God help us if it involves a ladder.
I knitted many hats! Many! One for me, then three more for Justin, Molly and Bonnie. Right now I don't even have anything on my needles. I don't know how long it's been since that happened.
What next? I don't know. There are still plenty of hats.

Anxious

Tomorrow I am heading to MO and leaving Bug to watch the dogs. I am intensely anxious about this and all the rest of my life, though I am sure I will survive. I am constantly reminded of 2003 and my 'vacation' and...well, it wasn't good. The only positive thing about it was I read Shogun again.
So there's no telling what I'll be involved in. Knitting will be involved a bit, I imagine.

Appointment at 11!

I am trying to get Bug up for his dr. ap. Yuck. He hates to go and I hate to make him. Especially a followup where we know there'll be nothing new. I am sorry to have to poke him enough to make him quit snoring. But ya do what ya gotta.

Knitting and More

Well. Vacation Day 2! Yesterday I had a meeting at work so that was kind of a wash. I went prowling Ehrle's Party Supply and found things for this year's dead marie and next years pink flap. I am considering venturing out for cat food and an early morning airing.
I finished Miss Fiona's scarf- except for fringe- and am perilously close to completing the cap. Every time I make a hat I think, I don't even own a decent hat. I'm making a hat like this for me. I also don't own a decent scarf. Too busy to knit for myself. Have to go to WalMart!

Vacation?

Work was just wretched and I am so glad I'm out of there for a while. Then I start thinking of what I'm going to be doing for the next couple weeks and I think....ugh. Double UGH!
Maybe it wont be so bad.
