Another few and far between post

Oh I have to make a post it note to remind me to post here. hahaha

It is so unbelievable that we are out of debt after selling the house. We have not decided if we like renting and having someone else take care of things that need fixing or to buy a house. I look through the listings but so far nothing has popped out at me. I hear that is now in a buyers market so that is a good thing.

I actually bought a skein of yarn to knit a dishcloth to knit for our new apartment but have not started knitting. My sister's store is moving so I am working an awful lot as we are trying to sell everything so we don't have to pack it and move it. My fingers ache to knit.

We are finally getting winter here in Wisconsin. January was so mild and I loved it! I always thought of myself as a snow lover until I had a mild January! HA.

The house sold!

Hallelujah! The house is sold. We finally closed the deal on January 13th! I am so relieved. We are renting right now and may continue renting. It is kinda nice.

My daughter found out today that baby #2 is a GIRL!!!!!!! She had a regular ultrasound and a 4D.... amazing technology! She emailed us the pictures!

House closing

The house closing didn't happen.... 4 hours before it closed the buyer couldn't get his financing. What a disappointment.

I moved the last of my yarn here... yahoo.... and my fabric... I am thinking I need to downsize as the garage is so full at our rental. Yikes.

Checking In

Sorry I haven't posted in a long time..... Life has been busy, busy, busy. I am working everyday except for every other Sunday. Retail before Christmas is crazy!

We are also in the process of selling our home. We are moving the last of our stuff tomorrow and hopefully closing on it on Wed. We want it all done by the end of the year.

Knitting is almost non-existent which makes me very sad. I need some new mittens and hate to buy some knowing that I can knit a better pair. I have one done... and the cuff of the 2nd one done. Maybe once the house is sold I can relax a bit.

Christmas was very nice this year. I had it at our new apartment. My grandbaby Ella is almost 2 and was so cute opening presents. I got her a baby doll and she carried it around hugging it.... so precious.

Hopefully I will have some more time for posting more often also.

Merry Christmas and Have a Blessed New Year!

Knitting???

I am so tired after a day of work that I can't even knit. UGHHHHHH
I can do dishcloths as I have memorized the pattern but even those are sitting in basket waiting to be finished.

The job is going well but I have not worked in 3 years and my legs can hardly take the standing.

I just found out I am going to be a Gramma again!!!!! I am so happy for my daughter and son-in-law. Grandbaby # 2 will be arriving in the Spring.

I am still alive...

Although some nights my legs want to die!!!
We moved on Aug. 15th, or should I say, started to move. I then started a job at my sister's store, Cottage Chic home furnishings, on the 17th!!! I love my new digs and job but I am pooped!
I am so tired at night that I rarely knit. I knit dishcloths only because my eyes won't let me follow a pattern. o|o

I will try to post more often as to stay in the ring rules.... ;-)

Knitting slump?

Do you ever get where you don't know what to knit next? I have been knitting dishcloths and got all caught up with my orders and want to do something different and I just can't figure out what project to do..... Maybe it's the heat.

We finally got an air conditioner and today is cooler... go figure. The day my husband agreed that we needed one , I couldn't find one anywhere! Dear hubby kept looking and found one an hour away at a Best Buy. How in the world did I survive without it????

I got some really awesome knit notecards from Knit Chick. How fun. FiberRAOK is an awesome group.

Dish Cloths

Wow, I feel like a knitting machine! I have been getting orders for dishcloths! I have knit about 3 dozen in the past month. I don't make much profit but I can buy more yarn which makes me happy.

Today I feel like a wrung out dishcloth. The Lord is doing some weeding in my life and mind. He is confirming "words" and healing me. I am so thankful for my Tuesday night Bible study group. We minister one to another and have become so close.

My little GrandToddler will be 18 months old tomorrow! That has gone by so fast! She blows kisses that melt my heart!

Block of the month class

I joined a block of the month class at my LYS and am enjoying learning new techniques. I have 3 blocks finished so far and I am using coordinating colors of Encore wool.

I bought a new knitting book yesterday "Modular Knitting" Can't wait to start knitting up some of the blocks.

I also have been knitting many cotton dish cloths and selling them. Keeps me in yarn money!! ;-)

web biz

I am so excited. I sell web hosting along with telecommunications and today my sister ordered a hosting package and I also get to build her an e-commerce site! I bneed to work from home as it is best for my health. I will be her web person and also a sales person for her stuff! She is dreamin up something big for decorating and I am ground floor!!!! I am EXCITED!

I am knitting lots of dishcloths right now....easy to carry with me and people always ask for them. I hope to make a few bucks that way.

I am still knitting

...just not posting as much. Now that summer is upon us and flower gardens need tending, graduations, picnics and such, knitting is reserved for night time.

I am growing in the Lord so fast and having a fun time! My hip got healed which allows me to garden again! My flower gardens were so neglected.

Quit new job!

Well that job lasted 20 hours. I quit today. It had inadequate office furniture and space and it made my back & fibromyalgia worse. Oh well...back to the want ads.

Now I may have more time to post here and to knit also.
