Mood Good I' m glad it's Friday. My shingles has flared up but I'm feeling better.
WIP The tube sock #2 is past the heel! The baby sweater is blocked but I need to sew on the buttons. The matching hat turned out to small it just barely fits Chase. I'm not making my hats deep enough. I did use my new needles and once I used the wrench to tight I decieded that I really like them. I am working on a matching pair of booties.
What I'm Doing This weekend will be busy. We have company and we are going to wedding. Fun time. Then maybe to the cabin on Sunday. I went to my DD's last night and cleaned her house, fixed us a oriental salad and had some Chase time. It was wonderful. He's so cute.
What Audio Books I'm Listen To I'm still listening to "Ten Big Ones" by Janet Evasnovich. We been busy at work and I haven't had time to listen. I just finished "Friends, Lovers, Chocolate" by Alex McCall Smith during lunch today. It was very good. 4*.
Weather - High today 70 and sunny. Chance of rain Saturday - Sunday cloudy and some light rain. High in the 60's.

Mood - The weekend is finally here… and another birthday come and gone.
WIP – The tube sock for the “Knitting Ground Sock Challenge” is coming along. I’m on the second sock.. almost to the heel. I’ll take a picture and post. Still working on the Enterlac Purse. I finished the baby sweater .. I just need to finish blocking and add buttons. I’m knitting a matching hat. I’m using my new needles from Knit Picks. I ordered the “Options” interchangeable needle set for my birthday. I was disappointed that they charge me postage… my order was over $75.00. The needles feel good but they keep untwisting from the cable. No instructions.. after looking at the catalog I think I’m suppose to use the lock. They need to include 3 double needle pockets instead of just 2, so all the needle ends will fit. I’m going to order another triple pocket- you need 9 pockets to put all the needle points in. I think I will order a 40” cable set, a viewer sizer, and needle size ID tags. I also want to try the double pointed needles… size 2 I think. I’m sure they won’t pay the postage to Alaska… that burns me because they will ship to New York and that further away from Oregon than Alaska.
What I’m Doing - This weekend is a Men’s softball tournament. So we will be going to those games and the cabin. I hope my DD goes to the cabin .. then I will get some grandma time with Chase.
What Audio Books I’m Listen To - “Ten Big Ones” by Janet Evanovich. I’m really enjoying her books. Easy listening and a quick listen - A Stephanie Plum novel. I just finished "Therapy" by Jonathan Kellerman very good 4*. I also finished "Lost and Found" by Carol Parkhurst – different - its about a reality show - 3*. I’m also listening to “Friends, Lovers, Chocolate” by Alex McCall Smith in the car. I love listening to Davina Porter read a book.
Weather - High 63 Scattered Showers..low 54F. 60% change of rain Saturday, Sunday cloudy and some light rain. High in the low 60’s. Not hot.... at least we're not in 100's. My sister lives in St. Louis area and she called .. heat index that day 104 degrees. Phew.

Mood - It’s a lazy summer /rainy day. The humidity is high.
WIP - The "Ribwarmer" is still on the back burner. I’m working on my Entralac Purse. I’m still knitting the baby sweater for Jonah and I’m done with my first sock.. except the heels and toes which I will do at the same time when I finish the left sock tube. Oh yes and Carrie’s V-neck pullover.. still working on that.
What I’m Doing – Tomorrow I’m going to a finishing class put on by the Knitting Guild. I hope to learn some new techniques that will help me with finishing my project! What Audio Books I’m Listen To - “Theraphy” by Johnathan Kellerman. Very good. Since I last downloaded I’ve listens to Blessings by Annna Quindlen, Twisted by Jonathan Kellerman, Rage by Jonathan Kellerman, Diggin to America by Anne Tyler, Metro Girl by Janet Evanarich, 12 Sharp by Janet Evanovich, and Lost and Found by by Carolyn Parkhurst. Lost and Found was the only one that was very different…. Although good .. different.
Weather - High 60 Showers . Tonight Cloudy with a few showers. Low 53F. Winds S at 10 to 15 mph. Chance of rain 40%. Weekend - Times of sun and clouds. Highs in the low 60’s. Chance of Scatter showers.
