You gotta love the extra day in the weekend that means BFF Liz can come to my house for a cook out and to see the color we painted it and meet her new baby nephew (a.k.a. the puppy).

And you gotta love the extra day to spend time with my pets and my mom.

AND you gotta love the extra day to get stuff done which means you get the same amount done you would on any regular weekend, which means there’s a LOT left to be done.

BUT I did get a nap. Which I almost never get. It was a very good nap.

What did you end up loving on your long weekend? Were you able to knit? Just thinking of you…

Hello to everyone. I am back to school…bummer. I have been there a week. The first day was an absolutely useless meeting..same old thing. Three days with the kids, and another boring political inservice…lots of big-wigs seeking press attention, and they look good while we listen to their speeches. I am glad to have the kids back…some really need my attention. I am 3/4 done with my lace shawl in the Apple laine yarn…oh is this soft. Bad news is that 2 more teachers are having babies…I need to make two afghans by Christmas….:) I think I could use those baby booties that turned up at the shop, Was that not weird? I think that the post office needs to upgrade. Sheri, is there any chance you will ever do those huge blue totes for sale? the ones on the Photo page . Could I ever use one or two of them. Take care and Happy Labor Day.

I gotta love having come home from a last-of-summer vacation to my two cats, my yarn stash and my wonderfully soft and familiar bed. And even better, I gotta love having come home to find a LE package waiting for me! (The Pattern Tamers I ordered for someone else are too cute — sheep! Can I be naughty and keep them for myself? Right, I didn’t think so.

Just gotta love the postal service in general. They do get a lot of packages to the correct addresses, but there are odd ones every once in awhile. Last year I was waiting on some needles and when they arrived I swear it looked like the truck had run over the box. I opened the mangles mess to find my needles just fine and two sets of welding rods.
Gotta love it when SD comes to live with us while attending a nursing class with one kitty and two puppies in tow. My whole house is segregated into areas!! It is kind of fun having her here so I can deal with the extra mess.
Have a great Labour Day and get some knitting done!!

Hugs to you.

I gotta love getting to use my brand new spindle that I picked up Saturday. It’s my first, and this will be my first handspun! I’m pretty excited. Pretty soon I’ll be lining up to get some of the gorgeous roving at TLE. For now I have the most beautiful red to practice on.

Oh, and my brother who is posted on Okinawa *still* hasn’t gotten the box I mailed to him over a month ago. Maybe I should have just flown over with it myself.

Well, yay on the new space! Can’t wait to see the photos of it all up and ready to go.

My gotta love it for this week: the USPS and international mail. In an amazing feat, packages that were shipped from Germany on Wednesday, and The Loopy Ewe on Thursday both arrived at my home on Saturday. Color me stunned, as I figured I’d have to wait until Tuesday to see my yarny goodness.

I gotta love all the cool things they’re showing the Discovery Channel this weekend, plus all the cooking and knitting I’ve been doing! I feel like I’ve really put a dent in my WIPs.

gotta love being able to sorta actually KNIT again, after 2 months of NO KNITTING due to broken wrist, surgery with steel plate and 7 screws on 7/10, and now being told that I can knit again – and as MUCH KNITTING as I can bear!

anyway, also GOTTA LOVE that no one wants to see an apartment in a neighborhood that I don’t feel like schlepping to –

and third, GOTTA LOVE that, within a week from Monday, I’ll be TOTALLY ALONE for AT LEAST 10 DAYS and haven’t had that luxury in close to a year …

anyway again, hope everyone has a SENSATIONAL LONG WEEKEND, and let it please be a safe and happy one!

I gotta love having an extra day off to knit and watch movies and clean as little as possible. I’ve already put off doing laundry until Monday I also gotta love having two sleep-in days which I don’t get very often lately. I’m also doing some spinning which is what’s next after I stop computing.
