What a week!!

We had a busy week. I don't think I have knit in over a month. There has been so much going on. I think I may be ill because I never go this long without picking up the needles. I even spent 5 hours total on a train without any knitting. I did take a book to read.

The girls and I went to Chicago last weekend for vacation. We had a lovely time visting the American Girl Place. (My wallet did not have a good time there) We also visited the Shedd Aquarium. Lots of great meals and good times were had.

We did cut our trip a little short because my Grandmother passed away. It was expected but still very sad. I did give up my stops at yarn shops in chicago so we could leave early.

This week was filled with visitations as well as the funeral. It was nice to see so many people that I haven't seen in quite some time.

Thank you supersock for the package. It was great. I will post more later.

warm weatheritis

I have had warm weatheritis lately. That is my excuse for not blogging in a long time. I have hardly even sat down at the computer. I have been very busy with birthday celebrations for both the older girls. They are very excited about our trip to Chicago next week. (So am I)

I have did very little knitting in the past two weeks. I have not had any ambition. I think it is the warm weather. I did break down and turn on the AC last week when the temp was in the high 80's with very high humidity. It was worth it just to dry the air in the house out some.
