Babies and knitting

Four grandsons in 4 months. Knit, knit, knit! I'm seriously tired of knitting baby things. One more blankie to finish by Wednesday. Then I think I'll do something for me, maybe a shawl? That great black and white one I've been collecting yarn ro make? Or some fun hats for CHristmas gifts? I spent the day sorting and organizing for the Ravelry Olympics. So much yarn! Gets me all excited about projects!

So much camping desire, so little towing ability

I LOVE to camp. First tent camping, then pop-ups, and now a travel trailer. I love all of it. The break from routine, the joy of travel, even a few miles! I love messing about with dutch ovens and fire. We just bought a beautiful Jayco Eagle trailer and it is PERFECT for the two of us. Now, that's assuming that the boys set up "the man cave" in the humongous tent. I am even perfectly willing to go by myself, or just with the boys, except for one tiny detail....I CANNOT tow a trailer! Arghhh!! The whole" back up this way to go that way" makes my head hurt. Sigh. SO I am at the mercy of the One who is capable of driving and towing anything on Earth. It's probably for the best. If I could tow it, I might never come home!

Aidan's knitting

No, not BY him, FOR him!Admittedly our grandchildren are both beautiful AND brillant, but not even they are that advanced yet! One 8 hour blanket, one Mason Dixon one piece kimono, and one teeny version of the beanies all my teens wanted. All in sage green and cream.

He's here! Grandbaby #26!

Aidan Eric Josiah is here!! He and Mom are wonderful! Check out that hair! (His Grampa is envious!)

Whose in charge?

I fight this mini world conquerer every week. She plots to take over the world, I try to maintain control while being bombarded with unmerciful cuteness. And she has better bling.

Lost in the blog...

I've been fighting with Blogger to LET ME BACK IN!!! No, I didn't freeze to death. Yes, it's lovely in warm here by the fire, although it is 7 degrees outside. Apparently I did something right and once again have access. Grrr!

Been knitting, big surprise! Finished a sweater I started last fall and then put aside. It fits grandson Andy perfectly. And the blue is perfect with his eyes!

Sad, sad day

OK, now I'm still trying to hack up a lung, and it's only 60 degrees in here. Out of firewood, depending on one kerosene heater. Brr..we loaned out our others to kids whose houses were chilly with this -2 temps thinking the woodstove would do it's best and keep us toasty. HA! SO here are the last two pieces of wood. I guess we are saving them for when it's REALLY cold! I feel like a character from Dickens....no, not really. We do have wood coming on Wednesday, I hope. And maybe some today? And, I lied, a closer look at the themometer shows it's really 62. I'm so tired of coughing, it's nice to complain about being cold!
