so, so tired
Filed under my life by sherriknits at 10:41 pm on Feb 20 2008
I’ve actually been forcing myself to go to bed early and go to sleep, but sleep doesn’t come or stay. So weird. I’m deciding to take better care and drink more water. Why is this so hard?
I did find a new old-time radio show to listen to…”A Date With Judy”. It’s just a cute 40’s radio show…
A Date with Judy was an American radio program during the 1940s. It was a teenage comedy that began as a summer replacement for Bob Hope’s show, sponsored by Pepsodent and airing on NBC from June 24 to September 16, 1941, with 14-year-old Ann Gillis in the title role.
(from Wikipedia)
Hubby was gone for 2 nights. I’m glad he got to go but I’m more glad he is home. I was at the shop today and was called up front to the family business and I looked out the window and saw him drive up and my heart just jumped and I was gone to greet him, much to the amusement of everyone else. Well, I am happy to say that after 33 years, I still want to run and see him even if he hasn’t been gone. I’m grateful.
Been knitting, trying to make something for the bride and feel it is going to happen but we have to do some experimenting first because she is so tiny. It’s just an easy knit and won’t put any pressure on me since I’m doing it now.
I have no idea why I’m here tonight….I really don’t have much to say but I was missin’ my blog so I thought I’d stick my head in and say howdy.
Oh, the cutest thing I found out tonight. The new mama is doing a photo blog of her baby bump. That’s my little sweet pea growing and growing. I was going to show it, but decided not to…trust me, it’s pretty exciting. I did make a new little bootie, maybe I’ll go snap a picture and show you that. hang on.
There’s only 1 but wow was this a quick knit. I love this yarn (Fly*dyed). I bought it for the shop when I went up to Madrona. She’ll never repeat it and laughed when I liked it so much. That’s the magic bootie, I think is the name of the pattern. I saw it at Madrona, too. The new mama liked it so much and was afraid I was going to forget it at Grandma’s. I knit this in my sleepless stupor on the way to Oregon.
I found some other photos on my camera when I loaded these on to my computer.
This first one was so silly. We sent hubby to Starbucks in the morning at Grandma’s. No one wanted Folger’s coffee. We even bought Grandma a mocha, she’d never had one…and she liked it!
I just had to show it because how silly does that picture look? I guess I just got intrigued with all the cups and grabbed my camera before everyone started grabbing their coffee. Some were already gone.
As we were leaving Grandma and Grandpa’s house, the sunset was just beautiful.
Isn’t that peaceful?
I think I need to clean off my camera lens again. How in the world does it get so dirty when it lives inside?
I really enjoy my time when we visit there…it’s so pretty. I wish I’d taken more pictures but I forgot.
And now I am racing up the stairs because in the last minute everyone else headed off to bed and i was going to be the first one!

What a cute little bootie!
I feel the urge to knit for my old advisor, whose wife is having a baby this month, but there is NO PINK in my stash and I’m too poor to go buy more. Not to mention, I’m supposed to be knitting purses for my bridesmaids!
