Beam me up Scotty

I am (not so) patiently awaiting the SOS KAL to start. I absolutely love knitting lace and this will be the first knit along I have ever done, it will also be the first knitting that I have ever done with beads. I am excited for something new.

I have no pictures today.....did get some cute ones of thelittle guy and a little girl I have been watching. They are too cute, she is 9 months old and the same size comparitively to the wee one. She is a big baby! Wicked cute though. I do not publish pics of other peoples children on my blog.

I have been puttering away at the cabled aran fron firsherman's aran by Alice Starmore. I like the pattern but have to rely heavily on the book for the center cable as it is quite complicated.

On the non-knitting front, I have been sewing up a storm. I used to enjoy sewing, I custom made some very pretty clothes for myself that actually fit WELL! This go round I have been maiking adjustable WARM jammies for the kids. Shyanne got pink camo John Deere jammies, Bud got John deere field scene jammies, and Bret got teddy bears and puppies on a blue background. The best thing about the boys, was unbeknownst to me I bought enough to get a pair of each for each of the boys. SO now I have a pair of John Deere jams cut out for Bret and teddy and puppy's cut out for Bud.

On the work front.....I dunno.......no news is supposed to be good news right? Bah, it certainly is scary! And "those" people hired a couple who just had a baby 8 weeks early, he has been caught growing illegals on public property and the whole island knows he doesn't last all that long in jobs............but he will work out great cause his mommy and auntie are in "those" people's back pocket's. Now we know for sure that this was one of those cases where they were in the back door before we were out the front door completely. BITTER?????? Nah, not much.
