Lost my mojo

Seems my knitting mojo has wandered off. I have several things on my needles. Yes, me, lots of WIP's. I have a Fragile Heart Shawl in sheds of pink to grey. The yarn was dyed for me by the Most Talented Fleegle. It is a dream to work with. I have socks for dear Son. And several other things. But my mojo is gone....if you see it, please tell it I miss it and to please to come home.

So I'm back seems like th past year or so, I have not had a lot to say.

But I have been busy. Got a brand new shiny daughter in law. What a blessing. Also got three new grandchildren in the deal. I have been knitting. A wedding shawl, and lots of socks. My health has improved, a lot. I am battery powered...at least part of me is. I have me and made new friends. But the real reason I am posting today is to let the world know that spring is cold and wet. With bits of sunshine teasing from time to time. I am ready for flowers.and warm evenings to sit outside and knit. Some one said we had a mild winter, and maybe it was. I just remember ice storms, branches falling and bashing cars. Loosing electric and reading by candle. Getting up in the dark and going to bed in the dark. The good thing about the winter is that I have warm knitted socks and a bed warmer. So I'm back. And today I am grateful to have warmer weather right around the corner.

End of summer

Somehow it got to be September. And with that leaves are starting to fall. So my awesome son cleaned them out of the pool and I took a dip. It was the perfect end to my three day weekend. I navigated my way to the Post Office and the Library, then to a yarn shop called Knitting In The Red. This is a lovely shop and I felt welcome from the time I walked and a a small black and white fuzzy came up to great me. The people there are just so welcoming. I stayed for hours and only left before they closed due to the weather. I had not driven the green meanie in the rain and got to try out our driving skills in a downpour. Got home okay and just worn out, so I crocheted on Edy's poncho and went to sleep early. Today started with a yummy breakfast and more crochet, I worked a few hours and then had to run to get yarn for the poncho. So tomorrow is back to work for the end of the month. And more crocheting. Hope to finish the poncho by the end of next week. I have socks to knit. And need to start getting ready for my SIL visit! Hope you had a fun and safe Labor Day.

Another trip around the sun

Well I did it, made another year. They are piling right up there. So Sunday I went to my grandsons house and three of us celebrated with lots of food, and cake! It is so strange to have grandchildren who are grown. When did this happen. This grandson just turned thirty, and has an11 year old daughter. Just yesterday he was a little kid, with Hot Wheels and motor noises. Time flies! But I have the joy of having one more little grandson. And he brings the fun! They should all get to stay little a lot longer. Maybe I should get the older grandson some more Hot wheels?

Sometimes more than Awesome

My son is Awesome, he has taken me in and made me a home. He takes me to the doctor and has made way too many trips to the emergency room. But tonight he is Awesome to the very Supreme. To night he takes his stepson to a Cub Scout meeting. Wow, son you are just too wonderful for words!

Over medicated

I was a child of the 60's sort of. While there was free love, make love not war, and drugs, I was doing diapers. Making formula and raising babies. So I missed the over medication that was the 60's only to find out that in my 60's I am being over medicated and not in the fun way. Seems to me that some where in this little tirade is a message. Not sure where or what or even if there is. Bottom line. Read and keep up,with all your meds. Take them to one doctor and have his read over the drugs. I have lost another three weeks of my life I will not get back due to one Doctor not looking a the list of meds I am taking. Vowels medication is not nearly as much fun at this point of life!

Two days lost in space

The last to days I was in hospital land. After a ton of test, I had the Dr. Run one more, and I was right. so I am home now. Seems that I'd you are in the 5th day of an infection medical care writes a a script and sends you home, not treated for what I had been put in the hospital for. Really. So I am home sicker than I was going in the hospital, I had to wait at the drug store for the meds, and finally have my first dose taken. Today I am grateful my mother taught me it is not polite to explain to people that it is a stupid way to run a care facility. But it is.
