Weekend update..

Well as you know we went to the races last weekend. Despite my protests for his safety my friend Tom went out on the track! I know he’s well trained for this and it is really cool to see him fulfulling one of his biggest dreams..
Getting out of pit row

Here he is!

And their off!

He was in one of the first races and then in the last race of the day, so there was plenty of time for knitting.

Casting on a motorcycle!

The kids enjoyed it too.

Zoom zoom! Let me out there I can beat Uncle Tom!
Then on Sunday we went to a picnic at Tom’s Aunt and Uncle’s house. It was beautiful! Now if I could only get one of these in my yard!

Here fishy fishy fishy!

When we got back on Sunday night there was the Sunday paper waiting for me with a 10% Joann’s coupon. So I snuck off Monday for a little S.E.X.. (stash enhancement expedition..)
Some Cotton Ease. Julian kept putting it in the basket and said it was for his little socks. (I’ve made a monster!) Some red Kool Wool for a one skein wonder and probably a little left over. And the last skein of Homespun Corinthian that I will need to finish my prayer shawl.

And last but not least:
Instead of this:
ok let's do some math

I have this!
Yeah! no math!
Now mabye I can make that one skein wonder and it will fit!

    Cotton-ese is my new favorite yarn. I am so sad that it’s been discontinued *sob*

  2. I second Tracey’s comment, Cotton-Ease is a fabulous yarn, what a shame they discontinued it.
    Now about that little pond–I would rethink the getting one, it takes less than 1 minute for a little tyke to drawn in those–a little boy around here died in one of those.
    Now, don’t you already have a tape that looks like a little sheep? Or am I imagining?
    Hugs,
    I
