Good Weekend

Well, the girls (Lori, Pam & Sue) took pity on me and invited me to their guild meeting. They had classes which I signed up for and learned how to do bobbin lace and crochet a necklace with beads. Had a lot of fun but going up and down the stairs at the church didn't go over well with my bum knees. But I got a call yesterday that I won the door prize!! Don't remember what it was, maybe Lori remembers, will go ask her.... hang on.... nope, she doesn't remember either. Oh well, will be surprized when it arrives in the mail. Yippee, I won something, how cool is that?? After the guild meeting we went to the fabric outlet in Lemoyne which was really nice but I didn't need anything. I have tons of fabric for quilting, if I ever get started that is. Then we went out to eat at the Market Cross Pub in Carlisle. I had the fish & chips and a Harp beer, I love a nice beer every now and then. Only problem is when I have one it puts me to sleep!. After eating we hung out at Pam's house for a while. She has four cats and boy did my allergies start up that night and all day Sunday. Of course all the painting they've been doing around the office doesn't help any. I get a bloody nose every time I blow, yuckers.

Sunday was a relaxing day for me. I tried to read the new book I got "Healing the Sensitive Heart". It's pretty interesting but I kept falling asleep from all the allergy pills I've been taking. The puppies love when I settle into the wing chair with the ottoman up against it, they can all lay down between my legs and not fall off. They're so funny. They love to snuggle. I still have to finish the gloves I'm doing for Donna's bday & going away present. I wish she wasn't leaving. I hate changes I don't inititate. I just hope the new lady is as good as Donna. I'm gonna miss her being around. We kinda sound off to each other. I told her we'll have to get together and catch up.

I have other knitting projects that I've started and need to finish. I do the ones with deadlines first to make sure they're done on time. I just love to knit. Can't wait for the weather to turn nicer so I can sit outside and knit in the sun. We lost the top to our gazebo this winter. The canvas just stredded in the storms. Bill our neighbor said he'd do us up a permanent roof, have to see what he's talking about. I like to sit out there, it's very cozy. I'll take my books on tape out and sit and listen and knit. The puppies like to hang out there in the yard with me too.

We have another storm coming in the middle of this week. I'm hoping it's just gonna be rain, and not a lot of it. I have plans to take my neice and her daughter to see Alice in Wonderland this Saturday but if it snows who knows if we'll make it. I hope so, I'm looking forward to seeing it in 3D.

Well, need to get back to work. Not sure when they're going to paint my office. I cleared off everything from the walls and most of my desk. I just hope they don't get too much dust everywhere from the sanding. They lost the charging base to our dust buster. I can't find it anywhere. They took it off to paint and don't remember what they did with it, bloody idiots! Oh well, back to work then as lunch is almost over. Ta ta for now.....
