Honestly, I’ve tried to be better about blogging. It seems that I can write (several) FaceBook posts a day but writing a blog entry escapes me. It may be because I can post to FB from my phone…but I can also blog from my phone. I think it has more to do with the length of the post. FB posts are more like thoughts…single thoughts. To me, a Blog entry is more like a story. Stories take longer to write.
If you follow my on FaceBook, you’ll know that I’m working a lot. Waiting tables can be a lot of fun (seriously). But physically it is tremendously draining. I think the solution is going to be finding a pair of shoes that I can stand in for 8-12 hours.
Then there are the kids…the 3 dogs that we share our life with. They are constantly demanding our attention!
Bentley loves his cuddle!
On the knitting front, I try hard every day to work on my book. What that entails, lately, is knitting the items in the book. I know I should farm these out to other knitters. But my “design” style is to make it up as I go. That’s a tough direction to write. AND, what’s frustrating is, I can’t show you what I’m doing. I will however show you a swatch. Get your hands on Classic Elite’s Portland Tweed and START KNITTING. It’s an amazing yarn. (By the way, the color I’m using is #5036. Don’t ask for details, I can’t give ‘em. =0)

So, that’s enough for now. In the next hour, I’ve got to shower, walk the dogs again, get some knitting in, respond to a few important emails, get dressed, get to the restaurant and work until 5…that’s 11-5, a long shift. But then I have the weekend OFF to spend with my honey. Sunday we head to NH for a combined birthday celebration for all the kids (and a chance for Gretl and Bentley to chase the chickens again.)
Is that a hint of fall I smell in the air? Not if you look at the forecast…90° on Sunday?
That’s it from here…off to the crazy whirl-wind!
hey, nice…uh…area shot there (WOO HOO)! and the puppy dog is cute too!
have a great time in NH…you MUST post pix so I can see how much they have grown since last year!

You’ll know me by the fact that I’m in Providence, RI and my profile pic is a lioness looking out across the plains….

Okay, Sean, I’m going to go there. I wish that was my head lying there! Yummy!
