junk drawer saturday
this is really not suppose to be a saturday to saturday blog but this week it sort of looks that way...
cleaned and worked in my jammies all morning today!!!
made a quick, 24 hour trip to Michigan to visit with my little Grandson. nothing feeds the soul like slowing down and play at the park, sharing the whipped cream on top of your mocha at the coffee shop, watching videos of tractors and diggers, talking about "Thomas" (the train that is), reading Dr. Seuss over and over, and rocking at bedtime.
there's some knitting news: twisted socks on the needles. they're my to-go project, colorful and fun to work on. a new cardigan is only 2 weeks on the needles and close to being done. knit in my NYC, cotton, snuggly, yummy yarn. a new pair of fingerless mitts are done and ready for that first cold-snap. (oh no! they'll wait happily on the shelf). and a felted bag is about 3/4 of the way to complete. yep, i've got something of everything going on around here.
remember those ads around the 1st week in august. Old Navy's Best Week Ever!!!! i know, i wouldn't have remembered them either. well they had TV ads and ads in their stores. well on a saturday i was there shopping, minding my own business and employees were walking around the store passing out game cards. you could win stuff like Baskin Robbins Ice Cream, candy, music, IPOD Nanos, even a new car.
i won an IPOD Nano!!! got it in the mail about a week ago. i'm really having a lot of fun with it. i like listening to music on it, but mostly i'm enjoying downloading Podcasts of a few of the Knitting Podcasts that i have listened to on my computer before, now they are portable. how fun is that. i'll have to give you a review in the future.
i'm soooo enjoying my daily blooms that my morning glory's continue to give me. those simple flowers just make me smile. :)
enjoy your weekend, whatever you choose to do.
