Have another pair of socks done.  Picture doesn’t do the yarn justice!! They were orange, black and white hand dyed yarn from Etsy. 

Redbud blooming in October!

How weird!!! Our redbud tree in our front yard has beautiful green leaves on it and is blooming in October!!!

Oh what a beautiful morning……

Pat, Velma and I were at Emily’s at 7:30 a.m. to serenade her with Happy Birthday; Velma in pj’s, Pat and I in bathrobes.  Used pan lids for cymbals so we could stay in tune!  However, we were at the wrong window!!!  But at least we were at the right house!  After a couple of [...]

I tried!

Came home from Continental Knitting class the first week-end of Oct. desperately seeking the Jo Sharp Knitting Patterns No. 2. There’s an adorable short sleeved cardigan in there that is screaming “knit me, knit me”. The shop that had it displayed was out of it – so trying to support my lys, I [...]

Kaity – they are done!!!

Posted by: keepingyouinstitches on: October 19, 2007

These are socks I started I think in May, maybe June for my internet sock buddy, Kaity. She’s obviously a much faster knitter than I am because she sent me some right away! Hopefully, she’s received them by now!

Emily’s having a birthday!

Posted by: keepingyouinstitches on: October 19, 2007

Emily will be 60 on October 20! We celebrated her birthday early. She’s shown here with a new set of teeth, and her special bib “I’m 60, I don’t feel old, Wanna feel?”

The gang that helped her celebrate. We ate at Anna’s Greek Restaurant, so good, so delish!!! Happy Birthday Emily!!!

My friend that’s a Harley babe…..

My friend, Sandy, decided she needed a boob job; so she got one! She also rides motorcycles and has all the black leather gear/garb. Perhaps that’s what precipitated the boob job. On one of my shopping sprees I found this statue/figurine, whatever you want to call it – the minute I laid [...]

Continental Knitting

Posted by: keepingyouinstitches on: October 19, 2007

This is Charisse, Angel Hair Yarn Co. She has the patience of Job! Nothing frustrated her, she allowed the work to stay in our hands, even when correcting something (if you wanted to do it that way).

And here are the brave souls that learned Continental knitting. What a great Sunday afternoon we had!

Rib-it, Rib-it, Rib-it…..

Posted by: keepingyouinstitches on: October 19, 2007

Even in the medical field you have to know how to rib-it! Stitches are being taken out in this photo, duh! My right foot is scheduled for surgery on Friday, 11/2. I’ve gotten along beautifully and would recommend to anyone – don’t put up with bunions!

Bunion surgery – the best!

Posted by: keepingyouinstitches on: October 19, 2007

Wow! Can’t believe my foot looked like that; however, it did get more black and blue. This was 5 days after surgery. For all the “advice” I got – that’s the worst surgery ever, etc.; no it isn’t!!!! Birthing a babe is worse!

  • Ah….life in the fast lane November 10, 2009
    At 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 [...]

  • A new and colorful knee! October 24, 2009
    Tuesday (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 [...]

  • Very technologically challenged….oh yes, I am October 18, 2009
    For 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 [...]
