WEEK 29

 

Hey there.  Another week has passed and I still do not have a finished yarn project to show.  I did finish this:

The Lego San Francisco skyline.  This was my 50th anniversary gift from our daughter.  She had asked what I wanted for our 50th and I told her a trip to San Francisco.  Since she could 't afford that she got me this instead.  I love it!  It was a fairly easy build.  Completed in one day.

As for yarn projects................it is the same 3.

The lap blanket is so slow going.  The marker was placed there 2 months ago!  I only work on this on Thursday nights during Adoration hour.  That gives it about 4 rows a week.  This is the reason I do not knit bigger projects.  Especially when I need to keep track of a patterned stitch.  I get bored way to easily with them.

Daughter's second sock has been started and the cuff is almost done.  This is my project for when my wrists hurt from crocheting on the Lego blanket.

And, here is the Lego blanket, tucked into a basket with the skeins on top.  I had to hide it this week as the intended receiver kept stopping over for little visits.  Otherwise, it is normally out, right beside my chair so I can easily pick it up and work on it.  I am on row 95 of 218 (not including the border).  I have been asked where the pattern can be found.  It is on Ravelry at this site.    It is not a free pattern but worth the price.  It is so well written and the color chart is all I needed to print out.

That is all for this week's update.  I spent quite a bit of my week transporting people around to appointments. 

Josie's car had to go to the shop so I was her chauffer for a couple of days.  

Our daughter had to have some oral surgery done so I chauffeured her to and from plus I had her at our house for a couple of days to recoup.  

I did my groceries online for pick up this week.  I did not have the gumption to go to the store and deal with everything.  

I spent a day with Stacie helping her declutter her craftroom.  I even brought her sewing machine to my house to see why she said it was broken.  Worked fine when I used it.  Maybe operator error?  

I renewed our passports online.  How nice that you can get your passport photo taken at the local CVS store.  And, it can be done digitally which makes it super easy to do your renewal online.  

So, it was another busy week for me and, of course, the crafting comes second to my family.

I am very excited...............tomorrow I am going to the Barrett Jackson car show with my son, his wife and their future son in law.  This has been on my bucket list for years.  My son, Jay, got free tickets from our car dealership for being a good customer!  The weather will be perfect with a high of 75F and partly cloudy.

Today, I will be kicking back and enjoying the day.  I have a pot roast in the crockpot.  There is another Lego build I started and would like to finish.  All my yarn projects would like to receive a bit of love.  There are NFL playoff games to watch too.  A perfect Sunday!

Let me leave you with a chuckle today.............

Until Next Time..........................Happy Crafting!!!!!!!!!!!!
