Who needs friends when you have The Guild!

Thank you fellow guilders for the lovely and thoughtful birthday cake and gift certificate to TB.
What's a girl to do, but shop and knit. The only thing better would be to shop and knit on the Island!
Thank you very much, maybe the Guild can gather and help me spend my gift!

Oh, Oh!

Arrived home on Saturday afternoon. Two thirds of the way home I decided I was not feeling very good. Getting sick. How intuitive of me! The BOY and arrived home about 2:30. I took a shower and went to bed with the chills and nausea. In the middle of the night, The Boy got it. We both spent Sunday sleeping. Not a great day by any means.

I am off to work this a.m., The BOY, will remain home. He is supremely unhappy about it. Does not want to miss anymore school. BTW, I need to inform his history teacher that I overheard The Boy discussing his Vietnam class with some relatives, he was expounding on how much he has learned and that it was an enjoyable class (you didn't hear it from me.)

Is GT still here? Or has the she traveled north already???? Two projects, she is such an overachiever, makes the rest of us look bad. And now she is doing cables?

Well I need to go dry my hair and get dressed. Which will use up about all the energy I have. Have not knit at all . . . :-(

Black Friday

Ok, so the big T-day is over. All went well at the Taylor house. The food was good and the company was fun. Z and J had to work at 5:30 this morning. I baked 60 peach sour cream muffins for him to take to work. The girls and I hit the mall, (yes, I went to the mall!) at 8. It was not busy. We walked right up at Old Navy, no waiting. We were done bargain hunting by 11:30. I guess I go to the wrong stores because it was not nuts out there. I did not know I needed so much stuff. I wish TB had a deal today.
GT has finished a pair of pretty pink mittens for anther college friend. That is 2 projects in one break. I continue to plug along on my scarf and cardigan.
The dog from HE*&^ is still here and still up to no good, now he has added flipping the garbage to his resume. Lovely beast!
Hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving and day after. When does the guild meet again?

Thanks NK

A big guild thank you to NK for teaching GT and I to cable this afternoon. You can always count on the guild!

Happy Thanksgiving!

One sock finished!

Short report, one deer dead (my brother's), one sock finished, Ryan saw a BIG deer, could not get a shot at it (very depressed).

Other than that nothing much is new. Ron and kids are doing fine. Megan runs a tight ship, yeah Meg!

Have not touched the top down cardigan . . . focusing on socks. Miss you all! Take care.

The tie that binds

Clearly CB is the glue holding the guild together. Since she is out of circulation, the communication has been very limited. I eagerly check the blog hoping to hear from anyone, but alas, nothing.
GB and I went to TB yesterday and she bought yarn for hats and mittens for her college friends. She is more than half done with a "Where's Waldo" inspired hat. I am about half done with my scarf for the scarf project. Should finish it up during the holiday. I did knit 4 rows on the cardigan last night, slow going, but going.
The he&* dog is still here, biting and pooping. Anyone who dies this week won't have to worry about going to hedouble hockeysticks, Satan is here on vacation, enjoying himself, pooping through out my house, so he can't admit anyone new.

CB Beware!

Hey CB, I am to the point where you divide for sleeves on the top down cardigan. Make sure you take it off at 80 stitches and try it on. You put 20 stitches on under each arm, so 80 is plenty big. Better to test it than to have to rip.
Finished the 2nd clog with the Galaway I bought, looks the same, so that project is done. I think I will start another pair of clogs tomorrow for my a Christmas gift...I think.
Have a nice time at your parents. I hope the boy gets a deer.
