SO YEAH

I truly don’t know what happened to my time this week. I’m just surprised today is Thursday already. We watched the Papoose and the Sprout once this week and had dinner out with friends, last night, I think (Taziki’s, yum) but aside from those things, I’m at a loss. My story is that I was abducted by aliens, everyone knows that when you’re abducted by aliens, you have missing time, right???

ON THE NEEDLES

Apparently, I was able to grab my knitting on the way to the mothership (see above) and started a new project, Honey Cowl. Details here. i had a skein of Mad Tosh in a one of a kind colorway, Nectar, which is working up nicely. If all goes as planned and I don’t have another appointment aboard the mothership (see above), it will be off the needles in time for FO Friday. It’s not the most exciting project, but it works up quickly and easily enough.

SOME WOULD DISAGREE

I read somewhere a day or two ago that nothing dates someone more in this day and age than putting a double space between the ending punctuation of one sentence and the first letter of the first word of the following sentence. It just screams “Hey everyone!!!! I learned to type in the 1970s (or earlier)!” Know what? I don’t care – not even a little. Mrs. Frachiseur’s typing method rules and will continue to do so. FYI – Mrs. Frachiseur was the typing teacher back in the day at good old DeQueen High. Hey Mrs. Frachiseur!! I’m so happy to know it’s not the gray hair or the laugh lines giving me away. It’s the dadgum double space!
