I was so tired this morning when I woke up. But I got up and managed to stay awake. I didn’t sleep real well last night. The kids got off to school all right so that is good. I played some tetris to stay awake because we had the window guy coming to take measurements. After he left I went and got ready for the day and then found out I had an extra 30 minutes of time to do whatever i wanted. So I played a little Halo 2. Woohoo! Saw one of my Halo2 friends make level 4 so that was good. Didn’t do too bad myself. Yay!
Off we went this morning with a quick stop by Ukrops for some snacks, then over to pick up a lady, and finally cruised into Kenmore. I took my knitting so I showed it off to some people. The meeting was interesting. We talked about felt work and knitting/crochet work and about these little knitted hats that all the women wore back then. One woman was working on a crochet one that actually simulates a knitted hat. So that was interesting. Unfortunately some people got a little nitpicky, I think they think we should only talk about embroidery and the like, who knows. But it all ended up well.
From there we dropped into the Knitter’s Cottage so I could pick up a set of round needles for the scarf I’m knitting. I’m making a blanket next. So definately needed. Mum got some of the most lovely light… well we won’t go there or I might just start drooling! My shawl is almost done, won’t take a whole lot more work to finish it up. I’m excited. I didn’t realize how wide my shawl was getting all scrunched up on my long needles until I put it on that round one!! HEHE Though now I have round, I can make something round like a poncho or leg warmers or something. Cool!
From there we took the lady we picked up over to Borders. She’d accidently lost her keys there yesterday and needed to pick them up. We then dropped into Best Buy where I looked at Fable and Buffy season 7 longingly. Mum picked up her Riddick movie. Some super one that has a super shiny box, an extra disc, and the director’s cut.
We followed this up with a very late lunch. We were supposed to be picking up Grandpa from his excercise class, but apparently the driver could not locate said class so he took Grandpa back to the home. Oh well, at least Grandpa got out and about! So we dropped into the greek place for some yummy food. Mmmm mouth happy, tummy happy, all good.
So this completed our circle as we dropped off the gal from the Kenmore group and headed home. Whew.
More on the agenda for tonight. Because I haven’t done enough today… HA! But anyway, for now I am kicking back.
