This week was “recover from the holiday” week. (That’s really just an excuse to be lazy because I really didn’t do that much for Easter that wore me out.) But the house was cleaned up pretty good, washing caught up, and we had a lot of left-overs so I didn’t have to worry about cooking for a while. So, I spent the week pretty much just knitting.
I worked on the pastel baby afghan and got it done! I still need to block it, but it’s off the needles and I’m glad. I was getting a little tired of working on it. I need to get back to my sweater and at least get a little more knitting done on it–I haven’t worked on it for weeks!
I still have a couple of recent projects to sew together, (they are quickly becoming UFO’s). Also, I didn’t work on any other UFO’s this week. I got obcessed with finishing the baby afghan. (But it’s done!) And I haven’t forgotten about the socks. I finished one, and am working on the other one. It’s about half finished.
I’m planning on having a yard sale on my vacation in May. I can’t get it through my head that May is only a couple of weeks away! I guess because it’s been so cold (and snowing) that it doesn’t seem to be as far into the year as it really is. Crazy weather–it’s confusing me! Anyway, I went through one of the closets yesterday and started a “yard sale” pile. I’m going to try to go through a closet, drawer, or room once a day and hopefully get some things out of here. I save waaaaay too much stuff! I’ll let you know how this progresses.
Nothing much else to talk about this week. I helped hubby work in the yard this week. He mowed and I trimmed a little. I’m really anxious to start digging for the patio, if only the weather would cooperate. When I’m outside working or sitting with hubby in the swing, I glance at my lonely shop and wish I was in there painting. I’m SO getting in the mood to start painting again. But, we shall see what this week brings about. Keep those needles clicking!
