Friday Truths
They say the first thing to go is your mind… and apparently, mine is well on its way.
Truth #1:
Yesterday, I confessed to being 57. However, as Steve so kindly reminded me yesterday:
Okay but, really – how the hell do you forget your own age. Well, because I do not have any issues admitting when I make mistakes – it is true, I am only 56. And, I really feel so much younger today because of it! LOL
Truth #2:
After a week of temperatures in the 50’s and 60’s – winter has decided to return…albeit gently which is greatly appreciated.
Truth #3:
My chives are very confused as to what season it is! (as are all the singing birds!)
Truth #4:
I am so insanely glad that it is Friday – it seems like this has been the longest week ever – the cocktail hour cannot get here fast enough! I am thinking Margarita’s today to toast President Peña Nieto – that is if I can convince Steve to make them!
Truth #5:
Next week clue numero uno of Kirsten Kapur’s Sock MKAL arrives (on Wednesday, in case you still want to join in!!) My yarn is ready and I am eager to begin. Yarn choice? Deep stash diving (see above!) I am not sure who the brown yarn is from, but the lovely golden-yellow is some very vintage Kim Kaslow aka The Woolen Rabbit sock yarn in the Tupelo Honey colorway. Now, are you wondering how I can remember that tidbit but not my age – I am giving you some real insight into what is important in my life – yarn is obviously taking up LOTS of brain space! Haha!
Truth #6:
The LINKS are back! The LINKS! The LINKS!
- Starting off with these AWESOME Peace de Resistance Mittens by Bristol Ivy – I LOVE THEM!!!
- Ravelry has given birth to a litter of kitty-esque accessories, but this brioche Happy Kitty Hat is the best.
- And, as long as we are talking brioche – this is just gorgeous!
- Margit in the Wind – if your urge to do some stranded knitting is overwhelming you!
- More stranded knitting can be found here and here!
- Sweater weather is (or should be if you live in the Northern Hemisphere) and Lori Versaci’s The Reach is just awesome!
- Colorize is something we could all use an extra helping of about now!
- Susan B. Anderson’s wait is over – these look so warm!
- Finally – some love for the little ones – literally! Valentine’s Day is right around the corner!
That is all I have for this week – have a truth-filled weekend and I will see you back here on Monday!
