oh dear!!!

this is the one that scares the bejeezus out of me

this is the hurricane that is now out at sea crawling up the East Coast....

from the map below you can see it's already close by as the clouds are beginning to come over us

the centre is still in the Caribbean

it's being called a 

monster

because of it's size

it would be nice if that shocking pink line is the path that it takes...the one that veers off back out to sea

so it can become

a

fish

storm

'coz the weather men are talking about

a 

perfect storm

you know like the 

movie

with

George Clooney

and the boat that didn't come back

poor buggers

.............................................................

what I hate the most 

is the

waiting

and this time I have an awful feeling

it might just be

the storm I hate too

and another thing that worries me is the prediction that it could hit the

Chesapeake Bay full on

that would devastate a very fragile area

so let's root for

shocking pink lines

and 

fish storms

we'll be fine I'm sure

not me and him

US

 in the general sense!!!

us'n's

we'uns

y'alls

have to go and unblock the blocking

and see if it worked

I'll let y'all know

the wheels on the truck go round and round....

over the rivers and through the woods

to

M's house we go

not bad for a first attempt huh?
click on photo for pattern

so she can block us to

our full potential

which just happens to be

almost 12 by 72

inches that is

but she forgot to drop our stitches even tho'

that was the reason for our being

:p

hostile yarn!!!...and

 

 

 

my posting is getting worse

I find it hard to think of anything to write lately

so I don't

and the blog just sits and gathers dust

 

AND

 

when you have yarn that won't cooperate with you

you tend to get grumpy

and who wants to read

grumps

 

AND...

   AND.....

...

I am still waiting for the blocking stuff to get here

half the order arrived

and now the other half seems to be lost in transit

somewhere between West Virginia and

the other Virginia

(here...me...theroomontheleft)

where the finished

 but bumpy lumpy scarf sits

and waits

 

 

 

 

to be

stretched and pulled to it's full

height and width

and be

all it was meant to be

 

:}  :]  :| 

 

 

and the yarn that won't cooperate???

 

 

 

 

it doesn't want to be

what I want it to be

so I have to keep ripping rows

and counting

and it's getting

BORING

....................................

!! zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz !!

 

AND

 

 

 it seems there is a hurricane a'brewin'

 off the coast

and

 they don't know if it's coming here

and

it just might

do that

and

 if it does

...................................................................

you'll be reading

grumps

alright!!!!

 

 

see ya!!

 

:}

 

something to show!!!!

a yarn I had stashed

for just the right thing

(I think)

a little more mohair

in a nice earthy colour

and

its got little sparkly sequins 

that catch the light

just a little tiny bit

bobbles and shinys

oh my...

so here we go...

this far so far....

and just a bit!!!

have a good day

all

:}

just a ta....

no 

DAAAAAA!!!

for now

because it needs to be blocked and I'm waiting for all the paraphernalia

to arrive in the mail

then I have to find a place big enough to lay it all out and do it properly

haven't ever blocked

so this will be

interesting

what is it the Chinese wish you about

interesting things

:) :) :) :) :)

have a new love already 

and I'm off to start it

I'll check in later when there is something to show

or if the mail arrives and I can 

stretch and block and

drop all those stitches
