Well, it is kind of nice to be able to actually start something and get it off the needles.  I know my mother-in-law will be thrilled to get some new dischloths and with the little time I’ve had to knit these days, it’s great to have a fun, mindless project.

Can you guess the color of her kitchen?

Lemons and limes.

I forgot how fun these are to knit and I wonder why I don’t have more in my drawer.

Tomorrow is the beginning of the Madrona Fiberarts retreat.  I know several people who were lucky enough to get in and are going.  I feel like I’m going to be lonely for the rest of the week thinking of them.  In fact, 2 years ago was when I started my first blog when they were at the retreat and I was stuck at home.  It was the beginning of the Knitting Olympics and my friends were all with the Yarn Harlot on the first day. 

I’m thinking next year I really will try to get to Madrona.  I did try this year but by the time I finally got into the registration area to sign up, it was full.  Turns out they had a crash on their website and I could have had a chance later in the day, but I really think it wasn’t meant to be this year.  After all, I am trying to plan a wedding.  Next year, other than the fact that it will maybe fall over Valentine’s day, I won’t have to worry about it being the daughter’s birthday because she will have a hubby to worry about her.

Ramble, ramble, ramble.

I’ll say goodnight so I can watch American Idol and not stumble all over my words like I’m sure I have.   lol
