well we had oodles of fun at our knitover last night. thanks again michelle for having us! it was a lot of fun. maybe next time we sit down and knit i'll have something to show for it! (i knit a couple inches of tempting and hated the way it looked so i ripped it all out. i'll have to get smaller needles and try it out again) then, today we all drove up to estes park, co. for their annual woolmarket. there were so many beautiful yarns that even with all the time and money in the world i could never knit it all. i did find one treasure for my mom. some interlacements cotton poly bulky stuff called memphis with a crummy number name. why do they do that? and i'll be using it to make a hooded pockety sweatershirty thing that she found a pattern for. also yesterday i had a bit of a yarn binge at the clearance sale at joann fabrics. lets just say i obtained the yarn to make 6+ sweaters, tops, or tanks. cotton ease and cara mia fun multipurpose summer/spring yarn with yarn photos coming soon. update! my stash can be viewed at the bottom of the page.

My Very Ecellent Mother Just Served Us Nine Pizzas... just doesn't have the same ring without the pizzas does it? oh well. so i have a proposition . no no silly no tthat kind of proposition. dave would get mad! or at least i hope he would... anyhoo. come up with your own rhyme to help kids memorize the order. the sillier the better, and the winner will get something fabulous from my stash. wow. i've never had a contest before this is kinda fun! i guess i have to figure out a way to pick the winner. hmm. ok all entries that include the beginning letter of all the currently accepted planets and usues them in order will go into a hat. not the actual people who enter. thats a big hat. but all their entries :) and a random draw shall decide ok? enter as many times as you like. and have
