June already?

Wow!  I can't believe it is June already.....some months have felt like they had 90 days in them, but all in all, the year is still moving along....wow!

I have only been working on the dishcloths for my sister and niece.  I am almost done.  I am on the last one

Here are Grace's:

Here's all of them so far:

I also got some yarn from Deramores overseas....I tried to order from Wool Warehouse, but they were not delivering to USA.....so Deramores it was.  There is one more darker pink that I forgot to photograph.

and I am making Marnie's Garden pattern with it.

That is all I have in the knitting/crochet/yarn world.....but I am still going forward with my physical fitness.  I did week one in the gym last week and it felt good....and it made me super sore as well.  Friday after my workout, I stopped for some tacos.....now, I have not been watching the news (too depressing) and I have pretty much kept to myself....what I did not know was restaurants were just adding an uncharge fee (for meat) without really raising prices on the items sold and with no warning or sign in the drive thru.  Now I understand we are going thru some tough times, and I would have gladly paid the fee.....had I known about it.  Instead I just paid the fee and then got mad afterwards because there was no warning.  Would I have still gotten the tacos, yes....but it would have been nice if they had a sign up and let the consumer make the decision instead of them making the decision for me.

Here was my last day at the gym last week

I did get my assessments yesterday and I am down 16.5" and 10.25% body fat.....

Have a great week everyone!

Happy Happy Happy Knitting!

It is No April Fools Joke!

Hey everyone....how you holding out?  Well it is no April Fools Joke that Trump has extended the social distancing guidelines till April 30....so we have at least 5 more weeks of this staying at home...so grab a cup of patience and understanding....we are all in this together!

My dogs will be so happy to have mommy home all day some more.  I just snapped a picture of Jax....and do not mind the mess, but this is the dogs' corner.  Jax has a toy box (filled with mostly wood) and his pillows and chew items laid about....but he was dreaming so I had to snap a pic or two.  Jax comes out the living room with me every morning....my other two lazy buts are still in the bed sleeping.

Antonio is doing his homework daily......

Now.....as for knitting and crocheting....I got quite a bit done this past week....I did not get much anything else done, but I finished the socks I was working on.

Then the blanket for my cousin's baby born March 20th

Broke a crochet hook....I have contacted Furls....hopefully they will replace it!

and then finished a sweater I started 11 months ago.....it is the cream cotton one.  I have washed and dried it.  I am pretty sure it is too big (since I have lost some weight), but I am still gonna wear it.  First picture is before washing and drying, second picture is after.

Well, that is really all I have....with this social distancing, I am hoping to finish up a few other wips as well....maybe bring down my WIP count....we will see.

One thing not gonna bring down my wip count is that I want to start a wallaby for Antonio.  He loves the wallaby that Darlene made me, so I want to make him his own.  I had 4 skeins of Ruby Red cascade 220 yarn and I got 2 more skeins...I think they all look good even though there are 3 different dye lots in this picture....I am not sure when I wills start

Well, that is all I have.....Have a great week!

Happy Happy Happy Knitting!
