Final One Legal

The Princess turns 21 today.  She lives in Vegas, so I'm sure it wasn't hard to find something to do to celebrate!  The first legal trip into the casino happened after midnight last night.  

I must sound like a broken record, but I can't believe my baby is all grown up.


I met this tiny girl with all the black hair on a Monday morning in late January, 1991.  She grew into a beautiful little lady with huge brown eyes and gorgeous dark curls.  She was bright, funny, and opinionated from day one. 





Our Mother-Daughter trips mostly involved shopping, but here's an adventure that I'll always remember.


 The coming year will bring college graduation and possibly marriage.  We look forward to welcoming Prince Charming into the family and seeing what the next chapter will bring.


We wish you health, happiness, and love in the coming days, months, and years.  You are our Princess and we love you immensely.  Happy Birthday, Baby!

Catching Up

It's been awhile since I've posted any knitting, but I have finished a few things. Let's see, I got it into my head that I had to finish my Cozy wrap before our trip to Ireland, so I could take it on the plane as a blankie. Well, I knitted and knitted, so much so that my elbow began to hurt (ack!) but didn't finish. I decided to take it with me as airplane knitting, even though the larger, sharper Harmony needles I was using could perhaps be a problem, but they sailed through security screening each time. (I love these needles by the way, in all sizes. I haven't had any problems with them at all.) So Cozy came with me, sat on my lap, and I finally finished it halfway through the trip. Then I decided that it wasn't long enough, so I packed it into my suitcase and planned to block it out larger after returning home. Well, I blocked it and now it's really long, but I still like it and use it to throw over my shoulders as I sit and knit at home. Here...

I Can't Stand It Anymore

Those who know me accept the fact that I am an English major at heart, if not in real life.  I can spot a typo at 50 paces and a misplaced apostrophe at 100.  I have much more respect for writers (even bloggers and people who post in forums on the net) if they use apostrophes correctly and spell accurately.  In reading one of my favorite knitting blogs just now, I was disappointed in the author (who I enjoy and generally think does a great job of keeping her grammar and spelling top notch) when she made the mistake that I seem to notice constantly lately.  (No, family, it's not putting "at" at the end of a sentence, but that annoys me, too.) Lose vs. loose.  What is so hard about this?  Loose is when your pants are too big and fall down.  Lose is what you've done when you can't find your car keys.  You don't loose weight, you lose it (if you're lucky.) The sweater you knit is not too lose, it's too loose (assuming it's size is too large for you....
