I like them, a lot.
'Nuf said!
I really don't know what to make this into, so it's just going to be a repository for my odds and ends and things that I come across on the internet that interests me. As well as pics and stuff dealing with my personal life! Maybe someone out there in the digital universe will enjoy this mess of stuff.

Anniversary 2009 Dinner
One of the king crab claws that we munched on...man to I love kind crab...too bad its soooo damn expensive, or Id be eating it every other day!
Anniversary 2009 Dinner
Here's the bigger of the two lobster tails that we had for supper. Yes, thats Mikes hand, and yes, it was that big!
Anniversary pics...one at a time...
Since blogger is screwing with me and my pics, I guess I have to do this separately, each and every goddamned one...
My tequila sunrise mike made for me...yummy!! With my ring on there...
next pic please :-)

Anniversary: Year 7 and counting...
Id like to show off more pics, but unless I can get blogger to cooperate with me, this pic will just have to do for now!
This was my very beautiful anniversary present. Black hills gold grape leaves/vines ring. More decorative than the band I've been wearing, but not so decorative it gets in my way. I just think my hubby likes to buy me jewelry...
We had a wonderful anniversary, ate lovely food.
And it was good!! Mike made me a tequila sunrise (as evidenced by the pic with the ring...(and yes, that is a size 0 dpn used as a swizzle stick, isn't he inventive!) and he cooked the meal, and he even cleaned up!
He also placated me by getting me a small present to "tide me over" until he got up! I love shoes, did ya know that? So he got me a pair... And these ones aren't bad. Nope, not bad at all!
Anyway, lets see if blogger cooperates now, and if it does, I might have more pics for this entry. If not, may have to make the pics separate posts.

Lost and Found
Stuff I'm working on (knitting wise, of course):
Soap Bubble Wrap in naturallycaron.com's Silver Service
Red Brick Road socks designed by Wendy D. Johnson in Paton's Kroy Sock Yarn, Glencheck (I've named them "Dusty Brick Road")
a pair of socks for hubby of my own design, which I will probably share with all (just because I'm nice like that) using Nob Hill Yarns Carrington in ginger.
Im also still working on dishclothes and such for a couple of weddings.
And the stuff that is currently taking all of my time:
Baby Stuff!!!! Yeah! My friend Brandi is having her first baby this September, and I think I might just be going overboard! I want to make 3 sweaters of various sizes and fiber content, a couple of hats, and a pair of teeny, tiny baby socks...but we'll see how that works out in the end.
The one that Im working on currently is:
Seamless Baby Kimono in the 6 months size (its a freebie that way, though I would love to make a newborn size, using Hobby Lobby's I Love that Yarn 100% acrylic in Linen colorway.
The other one I will be starting, probably within the next week or so, is the Cabled Raglan Baby Sweater in knitpicks.com CotLin in Sprout. This will be in the 9-12 month size.
I also have every intention of making the Ribbed Baby Jacket in knitpicks.com simply cotton in toffee probably in the 12-18 months size.
However, I first have to get through the rest of the school year before I go completely crazy. Which brings me to why I haven't been here for the last month. Besides having my first allergic reaction in two years and being on enough corticosteroids to kill a horse, I have been swamped with homework. One class I know I'll be getting a C in, damn there goes the GPA, but thats okay. Its a damn class thats a requirement, not one directly related to my degree. So I'm not going to be too hard on myself about it.
We got our garden in last weekend, and then it started to rain. All. Damn. Week. I hope none of the seeds got washed away, because I would really be sad about that! We planted tomatoes, cucumbers, beans, tabasco peppers, potatoes, dill, marigolds, onions, garlic, summer squash, carrots, romaine lettuce, and beets. We are still waiting for the sweet potatoes to arrive so that we can plant them as well.
So, here's my first post this month, and hopefully I'll have more this month as well. So for now: Bye!!
