1. Our wedding is this Saturday. I have a wee bit of stage fright. (It’s a Hindu ceremony and I only vaguely know what it involves. And I’m convinced I’m going to step on my sari and have it fall off, or something. ) Guess how much yarn I’m carrying in my school bag as a security blanket? Two socks-in-progress, a garter square, and two extra balls…just in case.

2. I’m giving my fiance socks as a wedding present. He doesn’t wear the socks I knit him much, but he really likes to have them and will claim dibs on sock yarn if he thinks it’s pretty. I think he’s saving them for a trip to Alaska or something. Weird, huh?

3. I covet that Harry Potter book almost as much as I covet sock yarn…I’m 81st on the library reserve list. I keep telling myself I don’t want to stay up all night reading it on the night before we get married…but I do! Sock knitting + Harry Potter = perfect combination!

Blueberry pie….mmm….

I would love to come sit on the back porch with you and have blueberry pie, but I will totally settle for the recipe. THank you!

I must have a boring life because I read the Harry Potter book over the weekend. Thank you Amazon for deliverying on Saturday. Unfortunately I did not do any knitting. But I am now ready to finish a baby blanket for my next great nephew or neice. Won’t know until about Aug 11.

Then on to sock knitting.

Thank you for the new pattern from Wendy. It is always nice to get some new patterns or ideas for the huge yarn stash that is taking over my bedroom.

Okay this is supposed to go to the prior post. I hit a button……don’t ask. Could you send computer guy up here? I think he could teach me a thing or two about computers. I’ll try this again.

My three things today?
Watch the raindrops………..again.
Knit on anything wool as it is very cool here in the mountains.
Pay bills……….yeech!

Three things, huh?

1. I have a head cold. Head colds in the summer are the worst, because you can’t bundle up in turtlnecks and sweaters under thick blankets and knit until the head cold is gone. There is just something very wrong about doing that in the summer.

2. I am almost done with DH’s socks, so I can wind up my BEAUTIFUL (!!!) Woolmeise that I got last week and start on MY socks!

3. I am glad that summer swim season is almost over (championships are this weekend). We have one month before winter season starts. Perhaps we can actually eat a family meal at the dinner table in August. That would be nice.

Must finish socks. Must start on Christmas socks. Must sleep.

Oh go read Harry Potter, we’ll still be here. I just started reading it myself.
Those sneaks must be exhausting. I noticed you still have a great supply of yarn available for us though. Good job on the stocking!

Let’s see…three things….

1) Had a great time with Loopy this weekend. I just looked at all the pictures. He is having quite an interesting summer. I didn’t want to blow up your server loading all of mine. If you want any particular pictures posted that are on my blog, just let me know.

2) Had a great 40th birthday yesterday. Even received a knitted cupcake.

3) I am winding all the skeins of yarn I have into cakes so I’ll be ready to knit.

P.S. L&V are having a Knit Wars thing. Look for it on Ravelry or their messageboard if you want to play a game for points for your knitting. Yes, I know you have tons to do already.

1. Good thing there wasn’t an update in the middle of the night last night/this morning. I was up reading Harry Potter. Nothing but the end could make me stop. Not even sock yarn. Or lace yarn. (A pause while Sheri picks herself up off the floor.)

2. I was so excited to see that three of the yarns that are going to go up next are the three sock yarns I am still trying to get my hands on skeins of. So I really really have to catch the sneak-up. Plus I really liked the Perchance to Knit laceweight so that’s going to be awfully tempting too. And I actually need some cashmere to make a shawl for a favorite relative so I’ll be looking for that too.

3. I’m so tired from lack of sleep combined with unusual amounts of physical labor over the last week (moving furniture and boxes around – a lot) that I can’t think of a third thing about my day.

Say thanks to Wendy for the cool sock pattern would you?

And thanks again for your excellent customer service, Sheri.
