“I look like the President of the United States”

Posted by sherriknits

The little imp and I were headed to the car to go to the bride’s new home-to-be when we saw the box on the porch.  The new tuxedo!  We put the jacket on him and he wore it over there to show sis.  While modeling, he told us he looks like the President….and made sure we knew he meant “of the United States”!

A little later, they came to see me at the shop because they wanted my sister to take a look at it so she could decide if she wanted to do the altering.  He popped in to show me the full deal.

Note the pose! He goes into another mode when he’s got a role to play.  He did comment that he needed to get to the White House!

We woke up this morning to a dusting of snow.  I know most of the country has been buried in snow all winter, but it’s rare here.

And so weird the end of March.  We are supposed to get accumulation tonight.

Right after I took this picture I saw the sun pop out for a minute with the ominous dark clouds headed our way.

Isn’t that a beautiful view out my front window?

I’ve actually been knitting.  I have misplaced the sock I was working on last week, (it’s not lost, I just don’t know where I put it down) so I started another.

I just love these colors.

My blogiversary date is April 6 and I’ll be having a contest, stay tuned for details.

I was sitting here tonight in an almost quiet house…everyone gone but my mom and the phone rings.  My sister asks if it’s snowing here….

Considering the forecast for tonight was rain and high wind, it was kind of a shock to see this.

Now I know there are many of you who are sick, sick, sick of the snow where you live and will even laugh that we would get excited about this, but we rarely get snow and when we do, it goes away fast.  I’m sure this will be gone by morning but too bad the little imp is not home to see it.

And now I am going back to not knitting.

Well, back to routine.  We had our first therapy session since November, I think.  The little imp actually did very well.  He hates to be corrected and when the therapist showed him that even though he had the right numbers there, his sister was not 81.  Oh my how he grumbled when she requested he write it again. 

Hubby went with us today because it was snowing this morning and part of the road on the way to therapy is known to be bad even if everywhere else is fine.   We knew  the snow wasn’t supposed to last but who knew how long it would keep on until it realized it wasn’t really supposed to be serious.   Crazy weather these days.

This was after about 10 minutes of snow.  In another 10 minutes, it was all gone.  I think this is supposed to go on much of the week.  The road was just fine and we got the treat of having Daddy go to therapy with us.  We then went birthday shopping for big brother.

On the way up and back, I played a little with my new sock yarn.

I think I am going to frog at least part of it but I wanted to experiment a little and see what I came up with. 

Hubby’s Fuzzy Feet are calling me from the bottom of the knitting bag, though, so I can’t play too long with the new yarn.  I owe him some kind of FO, it’s been a long time since he’s been the recipient of anything.  (who has?  I’ve been on the longest streak of UFOs ever!  but that will change)
