windy wednesday

so what to talk about today

after a day of nothing posted.

Yesterday was an absolutely miserable day

weather wise

foggy

rainy and blustery

as you can see the leaves are off most of the trees

but the beechnuts are holding on to theirs for a while longer

we had a thunderstorm at midnight last night that woke me up and got me out of bed in a second

I went and lay on the couch for a while as the lightning and heavy rain on the skylight

scared the you know what out of me

it didn't last long

but it was enough

to get me to move!!

today is a bright as a new penny and while it's still breezy

it's better than yesterday

as I had nothing of the domestic kind to do

I spent the day trying out new stitches

knitted and tunisianed!!

the one below is knitted basket weave or cross stitch

I found a little piece I had done before

 and

remembered how

so started with this yarn left over from the husbands scarf,

(which was noticed by Elizabeth Cat

and she saw that the colour was exactly what it was chosen for

the Latvian Flag)

I will tell the "precious jewel" what the

18th November  means

but I want to know

which

Independence Day........

when the

"wall came down"

or something more ancient!!!

or I will Google it!!!!!

this one below is from the new book

and it's with the pure wool I bought a couple of weeks ago

it's very loose and floppy

which I think will be nice

maybe a little wrap for the old shoulders now that

the cooler weather is here

in between hot flashes of course!!!

this is the same one I showed the other day

I think

and it's working up quite fast

love this yarn!!!

and then the one on the two needles that people seem to think is so nice but so difficult to do

it isn't and you should try it!!!

so three or four things going at the same time should keep me busy for a while!!!

that way I don't loose interest in any one thing

I can imagine an ordered mind would find this deplorable

but not me

Libra you know

unbalanced most of the time!!!

I watched the results show on

Dancing with the Stars last night

and am completely flummoxed

as to why Bristol is still there

Bristol for you non-Yanks

!!!

is the daughter of

Sarah Palin

whom I am sure you have heard of

but don't necessarily know

I don't know her either

nor do I wish to know anymore than I already do

but it seems the

"Tea Partiers"

 are suddenly interested in a silly

dance competition and are somehow letting it be known

It's a shame

that a silly competition is being turned into a political statement of some sort

it  isn't Bristol's fault so much

 as it is small minds
