The world keeps churning along..
I'm at my torch...Brian is in Denver...I'm trying to get a really groovy sewing center table from a very nice lady off Craigslist, if I can only arrange a time to have it loaded into my truck...I want to go to the nursery and load up on nectar flowers for the butterflies that are teasing me by flying right by the house, but not stopping...I have plenty of host plants, but not enough nectar ones...i feel a roadtrip coming on...good thing the local nursery is just down the road about a mile...I checked on that dandelion that was as tall as the 6' ladder, its about 7.5 feet now...but dying quickly...the morning glories are still blooming, and I want them to grab hold of the fence and never let go...so far they are being a little shy about that...
I've been working my magic new continental knowledge on my fair isle felted tote project and its coming right along...I LOVE having a yarn in each hand, knitting English and Continental at the same time...Its not very fast right now, I'm still practicing and the needles are bamboo so the yarn doesn't slip easily, but still its a blast a minute...I've also found that I will need to get more yarn for this project, while the directions say you need '5 colors' they don't mention that you probably need at least 2 skeins of each color...I have been rummaging for yarn from my stash, and so the tote will be very mulitcolored, but ya know what? that's O-TAY...
I hear my generator running, I think my O2 valve might be releasing all my precious O2, so I'm gonna go check on it...and make some beads in the meantime...rock on!
