So, I have been gone awhile

OK it has been a crappy good day.  How do I mean, well I cooked and made great food, for the Bears game.  Then they ruined it by LOSING, did someone not tell them that they needed to play?  I did not have to cook to see them lose, I could have done that on cheap McD's food.  So now I have to re-evaluate will I cook the next time they play or just wait to watch them lose.

Another Year Older

So another year older, and I dont feel wiser, thinner, or smarter.  I guess that's ok, because ultimately I am happy.  In General.  I have a good life, good family, and people I enjoy spending time with.  My hobbies keep me busy, and my dogs make me smile.  After where I have been, what more could I want?

Back from Galveston

OK so I am back.  Spent a week with my DS and enjoyed all the knitting and reading time.  Read Tim Gunn's new book, and loved it.  It was not as snarky as it could have been, and totally on the money about how we as a society have lost our civility.  It is time for a return to please, thank you, excuse me, and other such genteel words of kindness.  Who knew that we would get to a place where people would be so self-absorbed that normal everyday kindness's would go to the wayside.  Pictures of new knitted garments will be in the next post.  I also read Persian Girls, Lumpa Lahari's book, (terrific), I obviously had to much time on my hands.
