It's a lovely day.... though very windy. Mother and Pops were here for lunch because the wind was so strong that it blew down trees that knocked out the power. They came because we have a barbeque and they don't. We had slides for lunch... (mini burgers for those of you who don't know what slides are). Teapot took the bread that was in the pans ready to be baked to the school to since the power is not off at the school and they have tons of stoves in the Foods room. The bread smelled lovely in the truck on the way home. Finally the power came back on about 20 minutes ago. All's well that ends well... at least it wasn't -42 degrees outside like the last time we lost the power. Oh for a wood stove.
Have been knitting all day. I started on a Karaoke (that's a yarn with a mix of Soy silk and Merino wool) scarf instead of the Bison/Cashmere/Silk/Merino scarf. I was planing on doing a bias knit scarf with it but I loved it so much and with large needles I think I have enough for a shawl, so when it came time to turn the triangle.... well, I just didn't. Hope I don't run out of that Karaoke though. It is very luscious to touch.
Why is it that I finish a post and check for spelling/grammatical mistakes and then publish something and as soon as I publish it and everyone in the world can see it, that's when I see glaring mistakes that I missed when I was checking it over. Argh!
Teapot is finishing putting in the front steps on the veranda. Yahoo. I'm so glad to see that job done. Must go and do some walking. Oh my aching back....!!!!
What a pleasant, lovely afternoon.... hope the tin on the roof doesn't blow off in this wind. Sure is blustery.... who knew it would be so windy when that sun came over the horizon this morning.
