what's goin on
where have i been? oh...i've been around. just busy, tired, and not much to say i guess.
what have i been up to? let's see....lots of puppy related stuff. today he has an upset tummy. i won't get into the details, it's not pretty. he might be "stressed" from all the excitment yesterday. hubby took him to run some errands on a rather lenghty car trip and he got car sick.....twice. then hubby was standing outside the truck, getting ready to go, you know, winding down the conversation, had the keys in the truck and little Emerson was getting "antsy" so daddy put him in the truck, on the front seat, shut the door.....you know where this is going. Emerson jumped up on the window, hit the doorlocks and yep.....lock himself in the truck with the keys. you know how you get a lock puppy out of a car? the same way as a baby. you call the police.
i also started a new book by one of my fav authors Magic Hour by Kristin Hannah. (just a fun read.)
i started a new knitting project. i'm calling it "The So Not a Cowl". i'm following the pattern from Wendy (love her over at http://knitandtonic.typepad.com ) i think i'm going to experiment with somethings when it comes to the cowl part. i'm thinking i will leave off the cowl and do a leather lace-up thingy in the center. kind of a "hippy-chick" idea. we'll see. i'm using this new, beautiful, alpaca yarn from Chile that i found it at my LYS a few weeks ago. it's a verigated yarn with sort of a tye-dyed look. i'll keep you posted. i'm itching to start some new socks.......but i kind of like Harlot's monogamy idea....be still that little voice!
what did i just find out about that i wish i could do? this!!!!!!! www.knitty.com/blog cooking and knitting with Amy in Tuscany!!! if there was a way, i would SO be there.
what am i doing tonight? my sister, mom of four (yes 4) kids, has the night out, so we are going to see the new Johnny Depp movie. you know, the one that opens tonight that no one knows about.
where is my car right now? oh yea. bug-who-shall-not-be-named has been in the spa, i mean the shop since weds. same old, same old.
what am i looking forward to? the weekend with some time to cook, relax, and knit. this warmer weather and the first day of spring on March 20th. getting my car back tomorrow (i don't love this Kia from enterprise, it smells like old smoke inside).
what's new with you?
