What a weekend
Hey all,
I'm sorry my posting has been odd lately. I've been busy and working hard to get the new site up and running, so here it is, the first post posted only on this site! Hopefully everyone will make their way over here soon. So this weekend was hectic.
Friday we stopped at Border's after work to figure out what the hell we are going to do with our lawn. Our backyard won't grow grass, so we are looking into some "lawn alternatives." Anyone know anyone with a clover lawn?
Saturday we went to the hardware store to start dealing with our front lawn, which has grass that is dying, and the large spot that Oscar killed with his, um, organic material. So we spent the day laboring in the yard, seeding, and digging, and mulching. Not even fun stuff like flowers, and we decide we've earned a burger and a beer. I go to check the mail, and I find 3 condoms filled with liquid like water balloons in our mailbox. Interesting.
I get C and we decide we have to move them because the mailman is coming, and that is just rude. So we move them, we call the police, and this poor officer had to come out for our condom incident. We finally made it out for our beer and had a nice night and played some pool.
Yesterday we went into the city to try to take some photos to get ourselves out of our parking ticket, and lo and behold, there was a tiny No standing sign way down the other end of the street that was bent and looked like it was pointing the opposite direction. I'm still going to plead not guilty and try to get out of them, because it was really unclear.
I'm still plugging away at my knitting projects, which I promise I will photograph. I'm almost done with the first felted clog, I'm seriously procrastinating seaming my vest because it is too warm to wear it, I started the front of Smooch, and I'm almost to the heel of my jaywalkers. I sincerely apologize to my Sock Pal and my Project Spectrum Postcard pal for not posting their pictures yet. I've misplaced my camera cable and I promise I will look for it this week!
I leave you with this, some Zephyr from Rosie's Yarn Cellar to be turned into the Fibertrends Landscape Shawl. I can't wait to start this!

I love the color of that Zephyr.
(reseeding the lawn is HARD).

Hi Jenny!
Thanks so much for the socks--they are a perfect fit. The chocolate was tasty too...
I'll be getting a photo up soon--I've barely been home long enough to take one these last few days!
