On Wednesday’s I golf in a ladies league. I can hold my own on the course, however, today was another story. No matter what I hit, it just wasn’t quite right. So after 13 holes of miserable golf and 5 holes to go, I had a brainstorm of using a different ball! Low and behold, [...]

Last Friday after knitting class I invited a few people over and fixed a salad lunch. Lot’s of eating and talking going on. I like to do things like because I think it’s just plain fun. Had a few new books and everyone oohed and aahed over them. I think buying knitting books, patterns, whatever [...]
Is it the weather or what?
Posted by: keepingyouinstitches on: May 28, 2007
Is it just me or are other people thinking I’ve got other things I should be doing instead of knitting? It doesn’t keep me from buying yarn! LOL I’ve got such a stash that I think I could open up a small yarn shop and then with all the fabric I have, I would have [...]

Last evening I was poking around on the internet and found a person in CA that was looking for a sock exchange buddy! I’m so excited!!! Yes, this is the person that was petrified and easily became frustrated with socks, NOT ANYMORE!
I even bought the yarn today while at Charity Knitting. Told her that as [...]

I was working on a newly started sweater today. The ribbing was in gray, then it went to a pretty blue. So after 12 rows of that I decided it needed some spice! Added 3 rows of yellow, 6 rows of gray, got 2 more yellow rows done and then I needed to leave. Starla [...]
S.E.X. trip explained
Posted by: keepingyouinstitches on: May 19, 2007
An S.E.X. trip is a Stash Enhancement (e)Xcursion. I thought I explained it in an earlier blog, but apparently it was a figment of my imagination. I have lots of figments these days! Days go by too quickly and I don’t get as much done as I used to when I was younger.
Of [...]
Velma wants to go on a S.E.X. trip to Nashville
Posted by: keepingyouinstitches on: May 19, 2007
It was discussed on Friday, that Velma needs to go to Nashville on a S.E.X. trip. Her comment was as she was looking at me “I won’t drive but you can drive my car!” So now it’s looking at the calendar and finding a compatible date for everyone.
Another LOUD knitting Friday!
Posted by: keepingyouinstitches on: May 19, 2007
As usual, we were a pretty chatty (nice word for loud) group again. It just seems like we’ve got so much to say to each other. We are not only knitting buddies, but we’re all good friends!
Had Starla show me how to pin a garment for blocking on my blocking board. If you don’t have [...]

Received this picture in the mail today from my cousin in Phoenix. The baby is Jack modeling the cute hoodie I knitted for him! He’s 7 mos. His mother will never know the joy I received in seeing him in it. She said he’s getting use out of it in May in Phoenix. And my [...]
S.E.X. Trip update
Posted by: keepingyouinstitches on: May 13, 2007
Wow! Looks like we’ll have two more going on our trip in August. Making a grand total of 8! That’s a possible danger zone – 8 women (at least these 8 women) loose in a yarn market! What fun!!!! I imagine the sale of Depends (adult diapers) will increase those few days! LOL

- Sarah Palin – consider yourself invited… November 17, 2009While I will not be buying your book, my dear Sarah, I would like to extend an invitation to you to join our Bunco group sometime! I know you’d love it….but better yet, you will fit right in! It’s a bunch of zany gals that don’t have to have a reason to laugh and carry on….the [...]keepingyouinstitches
- Ah….life in the fast lane November 10, 2009At least that’s how I like to think of it! Things have been testy around the house since the bionic man got a new knee. Seems like we’ve had lots of repairmen, which ultimately leads to lots of barking. Derby, our found on the streets of Nashville dog, absolutely cannot help himself when it comes to [...]keepingyouinstitches
- A new and colorful knee! October 24, 2009Tuesday (and this is Saturday) Mark got a new knee; it’s getting more and more colorful! Came home Thursday and trotted him off to rehab on Friday morning. Coloring goes pretty much around the whole knee….wowee! Or maybe I should say owie! Staples come out Nov. 3 and yes, there will be documentation of that too; most [...]keepingyouinstitches
- Very technologically challenged….oh yes, I am October 18, 2009For the life of me, I couldn’t figure out how I was receiving voice mails on my cell phone when it was sitting right next to me! This has been going on for about a week now. Lo and behold, there’s a tiny button on the side of the iphone that if it gets moved, mutes [...]keepingyouinstitches
- Hubby getting new knee………finally! October 17, 2009OK, readers, it’s Saturday, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday is new knee day for hubby. He’s already commented a couple of times what a long week-end this will be; add the cold, crappy weather that is predicted, and it will be even longer. I’m trying to play cruise director in making plans that will keep him busy. So [...]keepingyouinstitches
