For awhile there, everything was pretty routine and dull around here. Exciting, though, that we NOW can park our cars in the garage. That’s progress, thanks mostly to Bill, not me. Then, I got sick with the stuff that makes your ear stop up. That, in itself, did not make me feel bad, but loading up on antihistamines and decongestants to unstop it, did. So, I guess you think I have just been sitting around watching the grass grow, which it is, as you can see by this lovely green picture:

But, no, I have been busy with work, especially. I have managed to start some projects. I even finished one – some basic socks for Bill. More about my WIPS in a bit.

Can you tell llama farmers live at this house? By this?

Or this?

I like to sit out on my front porch and spin and look at this:

Look carefully in the lower right hand corner, and you can see part of Sugar. Sweet Pea’s out there in “the back 40″.

While sitting on the porch watching llamas and spinning, I came up with this:

I LOVE this roving, Northern Lights, by Louet in the Tropical Skittle colorway,

and purchased at Creative Yarns in Macon, GA. Did I tell you that this gem of a shop, arguably the best in Georgia, sits right in front of my husband’s company’s home office, and I did not even know it until about 2 years after it had opened? Where were my fiber feelers all that time, I wonder? I bought the handmade orifice hook there, as well.

Yes, I am knitting a February Lady Sweater, too. I am finding it to be a very pleasant knit and looking forward to being able to wear it, as you can see, I am not too far along with it.

All scrunched up on the needles, and not a great indication of how it looks. I am loving the one-row buttonhole she suggests one use.

O.K., that’s all for now folks. Have a great weekend!!
