Big FAT Moon

I am sitting at the computer in my sorta new room looking out the window at a HUGE full moon. Its so pretty!!!! Of course I can't bend to much as my back is KILLING me from working on the DARN room! Picking up and vaccuming and scraping junk off walls and ceilings is MUCH TOO MUCH work! And my back is not thanking me. Of well I need to look ahead at the end result which I am sure I will adore. Well thats all for tonight, off to bed

Gift

Wow, I got my first gift from my secret pal. How exciting!!! Nothing like looking in the mail box and seeing a package for you and having no idea what it could be. When opened I found a really great book Knit Lit by Linda Roghaar & Molly Wolf. I can't wait to dig in and start reading it. I can't remember if the questionaire had anything about liking to read but I LOVE to read so that was a really great gift! THANKS AGAIN Secret Pal :) I am now off to tackle my daughter's old room, she moved upstairs to the bigger room my son had before moving out so I am going to make this room into a sitting, sewing, knitting room, however, she managed to leave half of her old "stuff" in that room so needs a lot of reorganizing and cleaning before I can fill it up with "good stuff" ha! as in my stuff!

dance recital

I know, I know, I should definatly be in bed as tomorrow I have to be up at 6:30 for the market thing and might have to drive out early to pick up strawberries BUT - I am fooling around on the computer! I have heard from the person who has me for a secret pal!!!!!! Yea! I found the e-mail of all things in my spam folder! Crazy huh? My daughter had her dance recital tonight, what a great job the woman who runs this dance school does, so professional!!!! I felt very sad seeing my meg dance tho, she seemed so grown up, which of course she is, she is 17 going on 30! I can remember her first recital when she was 4 yrs old and how excited she and we were. And just like the old saying goes, it just seems like yesterday! I am not sure where the time goes but it sure does go! But it really hit home watching the little ones do their dances and how cute they all were! A friend of ours went with us tonight and my hub and I had bought a little flower arrangement for meg and he showed up with a HUGE red rose arrangement, how embarrassing for us huh?? Well he meant well but still........................... gotta go to bed now, can't see anymore to type.

FREEZING

ok Buffalo weather is for the birds!! (and I am sure they don't like it either) Last weekend and the 1st part of this week it was 90 o and you couldn't stand it cause it was so HOT and HUMID. Everyone here was running to the stores to find cool clothes. People were not buying plants from us either because it was to hot to plant! Now within 2 days its freezing! High today in the 50's, if that isn't crazy I don't know what is! Yup today was bad, 50 and pouring rain everywhere, so of course people weren't buying plants today either cause it was to cold and wet to plant! Well enough grousing about the weather (what can you do anyway)????

Still haven't heard a peep from the person who has me as their secret pal so will write to the person in charge to see whats happening!

Finally took a afternoon off, the first in weeks it seems, and got a color, haircut, pedicure! Just lazed around the shop doing nothing!!!!!! It was great! Started a new book, should have brought the knitting, but that would have required too much concentration and after yesterday, got up at 4:30 am went with the hub to sell flowers at a flea market, got back, worked at the crazy restaurant (on the outside patio of course) ran my a...s....s. off and got home at 11:30pm just in time to go to bed and get up today to work the market again! Aghhhh but sheer bliss at the hairdressers! :) My feet have been thanking me all nite!

Well off to find some winter bed atire and rest the little piggies untill tomorrow!

secret pal??

still haven't heard anything from the secret pal who has me, hopefully someone has me, will give it a few more days then inquire. well the market finally has its new drive after weeks of delay, its funny (sort of) but people always say that after our huge fire last year, well everything just worked out fine, hmmmmmmm i guess that they don't realize all the hard work and fustrating events that got us to where we are.

Now that everything is settling in however I will have some more time so hopefully i can get back to KNITTING!!!!!! That darn bag is preying on my mind and am itchin to start that poncho. Did go to the knitting store and bought a goodie or two for my secret pal. hope she likes them, have to get them in the mail this week!

Finally, GARDENING, love it but what a PAIN, literly in the back and legs!!!! UGH

some asprin and off to bed!
