Weekends


 Good morning!

How was your weekend? I'm sitting in my kitchen watching the sun try its best to shine among the clouds. Today is going to be a beautiful day and I am going to be outside in it.

My weekend was great. I cannot believe its Holy Week already and yet I am ever so ready for Easter. I mailed the kids their packages last week and the only thing left to do this week is make a rice salad on Saturday for dinner at my sister's house on Sunday. 

My wrists are greatly improved and my knitting is back as usual (with me being careful). I forgot about my wrists yesterday morning while plunging a plugged drain and irritated the right wrist. Lesson has been learned!!

Besides going to Mass on Sunday, nothing exciting happened which is the way I love my weekends.

    Good to hear you are back to knitting a bit more (carefully). I'm sure that makes you happy. We had a soggy Saturday, but the sun came out on Sunday. Too chilly to be out and about, but the sun was a welcome sight for sure!

    You should save your wrists for knitting and leave the plunger to your husband!

    I am nodding with Bonny... any plumbing issues are always the husband duty!! It does look to be an amazing day!

    Good morning! It's a wet day here in Missouri. Glad you are able to get back to your knitting! Yep, plumbing is for hubby to attend to. :D It's nice that you can be out in the beautiful spring weather. Some of my Easter items for my granddaughter is yet to arrive... yikes! But I was looking for something special and it took some time. Have a blessed day Karen!

    Holy Week is my favorite liturgical time of year. Looks like the sock is getting some proper love now. Hopefully your wrists will behave. Other than having a plunger issue, your week/weekend sounds very nice and normal. Looks like we will be havng one of our last cool days today here. I will want to get out and take advantage of it too.

    Glad you're knitting again - love the yarn for those socks! Holy Week snuck up on me, too - I'm not quite ready for Easter, yet ...

    I am also glad you are knitting again. Easter is so early this year so it is. The sock looks great. Take good care of those wrists and hands.

Weekends

My weekend happily contained: -wearing the above woolens all at the same time without being hot -so many walks and taking in the changing leaves. -a leaf shower on Saturday-the wind swirled the leaves off the trees up in the air to float down -changing screen savers to autumn themes! -a craft fair where my husband and I say "we could make that", but we don't. -french fries at the craft fair -scrambled eggs and toast for dinner because we were lazy. -football season has descended in my house. he was in the front room watching whatever is on today -I sat in the family room and watched A Tree Grows in Brooklyn .   Now I want to read it again. -Oh! I finished the socks!! So I wound up about six skeins of yarn and have three projects ready -started a cowl for me in fall colors (I hope to finish before fall ends) -enjoying Spirits of Joy .  Hannah graciously had a one day free sign up for her birthday at the end of September which I luckily saw on Twitter.  Than

Hopefulness

Image
  Good morning! This week has been busy with classes and routine doctor appointments. The arthritis doctor has a few tricks up her sleeve for some of my dry mouth issues (from my autoimmune disease - Sjorgren's Syndrome) that make me feel hopeful. What was the most important thing during that doctor visit is that I felt seen and heard. I am thankful for her and her team. Speaking of hopefulness, look at my daffodils sprouting up! Some of the daffodils are just starting and some already have a head start. I love winter, but I'm looking forward to spring. The crocuses seem to be taking their time this year, as well as the snowdrops (unless those pesky deer have eaten them, grr). Even though I am still knitting my baby blanket, I have gathered four skeins of potential socks to be and am dreaming of a wonderful sock frenzy cast on.

New Year

  Good morning! How are you? Happy New Year, may this year be full of blessings to all of you. Well now, I finally have an empty home after having our son, daughter in law, grandson and granddaughter here for six nights.  I am still experiencing fatigue and symptoms from the virus even though I am feeling better. It was a challenge hosting family while recovering. Also we babysat the kids overnight (!!) while my son and daughter in law went for little getaway. I am thankful and grateful my Aunt came over both days to help out with the granddaughter who never sleeps during the day. (snack-naps do not count!). They all left early in the morning, and while I was tired, sleep deprived and fatigued, I put away Christmas plus all the toys and doodads you need for babies. Today I am looking at a squeaky clean house. I am planning on reading books and falling asleep while doing so! My exercise routine is on hold as I slowly get better. Maybe next week I can muster up some energy for some yoga
