THIS IS WHAT I DO. I KNIT, I COOK, I SEW, I MAKE THINGS, AND I TRAVEL, AS OFTEN AS I CAN.

I'm BAAAAACK!

Sorry about that, I hope I can remember what I did to remedy the problem in the event it happens again.  Don't you just love the way Blogger can just flip a little switch and we're all looking at everything wonky?  That's not right, we should have a say so in this, after all, I am just getting over my computer crashing at work and having to readjust my screen.  The $3K eyes were equipped with 'normal' vision, not superhuman-read-the-print-on-a-pinhead vision. 

Since I last posted we had been having an early Tornado season.  I think that may be pretty much done unless we flip-flop back into Winter and then Spring again.  I don't think that's going to happen because we've just leaped into full blown Summer... day after day of temps in the 90's with high humidity.  We've had no rain in a month so we'll probably be back to having drought warnings by next week.  The lakes are all full thank goodness.  We may never come out of water rationing though, which doesn't bother us as we try to only plant drought tolerant plants around the house.

I had my annual migration to Nita's for my birthday.  Not a huge blow-out like last year.  Just Nita and I cooking and hanging on her patio watching movies and drinking wine.  She was pet-sitting both at her house and had to drive to a client's home twice a day.  We didn't even go shopping except to an antique store one day, I have no idea why unless it was for food, we did go see the movie Dark Shadows.  My review... wait until it comes on network TV, yeah, don't even rent it.  If you remember the Dark Shadows from the Soap Opera days, you'll be really disappointed. Why does EVERYBODY think they have to do a vampire movie or write a vampire book?  Good grief don't they know the zombies are coming?

Other than that it's just been the normal high-speed wobble into the last week of school.  Next week that is, and I'm only working 3 days of it, the last one doesn't count because the kids and teachers will be gone!!!!!!!!!!!  Then I'll have two weeks of compressed time (no Fridays) then it's 6 weeks of what the hell am I going to do today?  I'm not really looking forward to it.   I usually travel, but I've got no travel plans.  Maybe I'll pop down to Jody's parents house.

Oh well, I'll think of something.





Nita with Sasha, the one they almost lost the week before.

Have a good week!

I'm still struggling with the Blogger changes myself. It gets a little frustrating sometimes. It reminds me of how Facebook makes abrupt changes that don't make sense and make things worse instead of better. Ugh!

Your flowers are soooo pretty!

I think I've gotten it pretty much back to normal. These flowers were just a few in Nita's backyard.

Happy belated birthday! Oh, you get before I do, jealous.
No plans? Utah's a great place :)

Aw thanks y'all. I've never been to Utah and I surely have never been to Iceland. Either one would be an awesome trip.

So glad that you are back. Missed you. Nita has some fabulous flowers. Have a great summer! You will find something to get in to. I have full confidence in you.

She has a couple of green arms instead of green thumbs.
