Trips Out of Town

Paper Planes (21/365) [EXPLORE!]

Paper Planes (21/365) [EXPLORE!], originally uploaded by innaminnafly.

I’ve been in Atlanta this weekend (and by Atlanta, I mean my parents’ house in the ‘burbs and my extended family’s homes in the exurbs). My grandmother’s 79th birthday was yesterday and we had a family lunch on Saturday. Yesterday I watched my 4.5 year old nephew play soccer and played with my 2.5 year old niece. Both are adorable!!

I’m headed back home today and am going to trivia with the girls tonight. I’ll have to write a separate post about the different team names we’ve had. Hysterical.

Next weekend, we’re headed to Rhinebeck. More details to come…

Dear Mail Delivery Person,

We’ve talked about this:
Mail mishaps

Please quit it. It’s really annoying!

Thanks,

What is the next big push?

without comments

When the Knotty Knitting Olympics were over and I finished my mom’s Clapotis, I took a look at my WIPs and evaluated. What should I work on?

My mother-in-law came to town in April and we took a trip to a local yarn store. She picked out yarn for a pair of socks and off we went.

I started and frogged the socks multiple times over the last four months. I began them again in earnest on Tuesday and am pleased with my progress. This will be the only project I take with me to the beach. We will see if I come home with a finished sock or two.
