I have been so neglectful of the blog! Somehow it got lost in the daily stampede of life around our house. Then again, I couldn't type fast enough to keep up with the chronicles!
On the good side, couple baby sweaters done, pair of socks done, wonderful buttons have been found, a few kids hats have been made, dinners fixed reasonably on time (or the 2yr old would make me regret being 5 minutes late), dogs bathed, cats cuddled, 6yr old's homework seen to..hmm..there's more, I'm sure..there always is. Oh..and somewhere in all that, I found time to read Michael Connelly's "The Lincoln Lawyer" which was a good read. He's one of my favorite fiction authors.
I did not get the house painted or the deck resealed yet. That was one of my goals for end of summer, but there's still time here. Georgia weather melds softly into fall rather than suddenly slamming in. Sometime in September I'll find a paint sprayer thingie and freshen up the house outdoors.
The Knitpicks needles have been a delight in case you wondered. I don't use the DPN's, since they are extremely slick and slither right out of my knitting.
Yarn? Oh yes..tons! I ordered some from Knitting Warehouse and due to a snag on the final page of ordering it, it tripled ordered. But it's washable and soft, so it'll be perfect for busy young moms that throw everything into washing machines. Hope everyone likes autumn red. And grey.

And yes...I played Warcraft a bit. *blush*
