Pet peeve moment. I get very tired of waiting for people to arrive when I sell something on FB MP. They say they’ll be there at X time and then be there 30-60 minutes later. I even had someone show up hours later after dark. I turned off my porch light and sent a msg saying I wasn’t opening the door

Weed pulling and flowers planted. Tired! Good tired! 🌱

One from the plane. Almost home.

Let’s go ducks! #Goducks

A little progress. 🧶

Midwest thunderstorm!

Our first healthy Black Swallowtail #butterflies mama of season visited yesterday & enjoyed buffet of Lychnis viscaria atropurpurea. We have #NativePlants hosts like Taenidia integerrima (Yellow Pimpernel) for her eggs too. #gardening #invertebrates #Bugsky #ecosystem #InsectThursday #pollinators 🌱

Vacation knitting. I’m new to magic loop and it’s taking a few extra brain cells to keep knitting in the right direction, lol. I’m comfortable with dpns but securing all those tips while traveling, yikes! 🧶

50,000 homes in Lake Tahoe being removed from the local power grid to give it to the data centers being built. 30% increase in water prices. I don’t get it.

Excessive posting! I had a vision of me spilling my stitch markers in flight and being the crazy knitting person trying to pick them up from under the seat. 🫣 Found this little box to hold needles. Would be easy to make with an Altoids tin & magnet. 🧶

I also need to get a teddy bear crocheted by the end of the month and in my search for a certain yarn inside my stash found these! So squishy. I’m very excited! 😆

Vacation knitting choices are made!

Tell me about apps you can use to track your rows on your knitting pattern. 🧶 Do they exist? Are they available, complex, wonderful?

I’m So Burnt Out. My patience level for all things work, driving for work and dealing with all other issues is writing a fine line right now. Thank goodness today is the starts my vacation.

This is me last night, trying to pick something to take to knit on vacation. I think I spent like three hours searching, first for something small enough, second for the appropriate yarn for my stash. I never felt like I hit a point of happiness with anything I contemplated. Am I being too picky? 🧶

Weird cloud

I went to the $$ store today as I was craving a good stir fry. It was eerily quiet. I’ve not seen so few people in there in the afternoon on a weekday. Earlier I drove through the Costco parking lot to get gas and it was full like before a holiday. Consumers making a statement me thinks.

It was a Monday.

🧶

Uncovered this from the sea of weeds! 🌱

More 🌱

That’s better. 🌱

What is a mother? Love, joy, sacrifice and sorrow. Hugs, laughter, tears, presence and withdrawal.

Will have meal with the elder and then back to work.

Friday night camper knit. 🧶

My office today

I’m going on a ✈️ in a couple of wks. I haven’t flown in 4+ years! I can’t decide what to take for a project. I’ve been focused on my Camp Along project, but it’s around 6 skeins per trailer. Not sure I want to carry so much yarn. I’ve got this sweater I set aside which is pretty mindless. 1/🧵🧶

Gardeners please explain why the light pink poppy is now this color? Is it a genetic thing or is my memory going? 🌱

This is getting old.

Fields of clover.

I’m so far behind in garden chores I feel like my house looks like a frail elderly person lives here. No insult intended! 🌱 My weeds are flowering and I don’t know if I’ll ever get it back in shape .

Detail stripped.

Comfortable 🐈‍⬛

May the 4th be with you!

Apparently squirrels don’t like the sudden heat either.

Working on windows this morning. 🧶 knitting

86°, I am not ready!

With my day spent on prepping a dresser & clearing elder overload trinkets, I decided to put a couple to work. There has to be some joy in the process!

I’m starting a big project this weekend of refinishing two dressers. Are you a paint or don’t paint person?

Happy Friday! This is a fav of mine. 🌱

My morning… let the dogs out, feed them, let them in & make coffee, sit down to start work, let dogs in, grab breakfast, let 1 dog out again, sit down again,let dog in, let cat in, start work again for 20 mins, let cat out. Repeat at 6:00 tonight.

Elder’s home is empty. I was sick all wkend so it fell to others to finish. Just a few items listed for sale, because it didn’t feel right to send them to Goodwill. Dress clothes to consignment is next step.

Watching “This is a Gardening Show”. Such fun! 🌱 Netflix

I would like recommendations for hummingbird feeders. I have this style, but they leak from the screw in the bottom over time. 🐦

My office today.

Thursday and breathing!

Happy Earth Day! 🌎
