Green Thumbs and Silver Sticks
I hear there’s a holiday coming up and it has a theme of hearts. Who knew?
The “2 Hearts” sets made me think of Doctor Who and his binary vascular system*.
I kind of love these…no pun intended.
*HORRIBLE name for the markers…GREAT Punk Rock band name.
There was light snow. Tom played with his new snowblower.
The veggie garden disappeared.
And the birds partied in the heated bath.
Now I’m done with Winter, so bring on Spring!
Wes mourns the passing of too many, in such a short amount of time.
For Bowie, Rickman & Frey.
Is this thing still on?
Some new sets of stitch markers…now with MORE marker stitchiness*.
*It’s a word.
Tom took off from work for my birthday week. The weather was pretty rotten (always cold, sometimes it rained) but we had fun.We did some decluttering in the garage, went to the casino, ate out, took a trip to Hershey. We had wanted to go to the Hershey Gardens, and the driving range at the golf course but the winds were blowing at about 35mph and it felt like it was 42º, so that was out.
Someone said I was going to love being 21 and I agree. I enjoy it every year!
I hurt my left hand while doing the big shop update (my thumb*, to be exact). I’m making good use of the chiropractor and am becoming very close with a bowl of ice water.
Once an hour, I get to plunge my hand in and hold it there until it goes as numb as my toes when I put on heels.
This won’t stop me & Jane from going to Maryland Sheep & Wool. I have a very special person to meet, since I was too sick to make our March rendezvous.
My knitting is next to me
and I may try to do a few rounds after my next polar plunge. It’s going to be this shrug. Knitting didn’t cause the injury – tho it probably didn’t help.
Knittas gotta knit!
*Go on and click. It’s just a drawing. No icky picture of the actual muscle.
I spent most of the week making stitch markers to update my shop.
This could account for my horrible day of bowling.
This weekend I’m going to knit or spin. Maybe both!
He bought me flowers, and we commenced taking pictures of them. Maybe the long Winter has us starved for color. I’m just happy to have a picture* of something other than Wes.
Happy Spring!
*Sometimes I’ll use InstaGram pictures. I’ll notate it in my Categories but 9 times out of 10, I’ll have posted it there before here. Exciting intel. That’s my forté.
