Finished the second washcloth today. This pattern, Grandmother’s Favorite, was very easy. I started it this morning, and finished it this evening. I really love the colors (Peaches & Creme Pink Lilacs). I almost hate to give it away. BUT…..I did go to Walmart and I picked up more Peaches & Creme…..so I’ll be alright.
Knitting these cloths is addicting! Such a quick project. Instant Gratification. I’m all for that. There are so many patterns, with varying difficulty. It’s a great way to learn a new stitch without committing to a big project.
The next one I make will be a facecloth for myself. I’m not used to this knitting for other people. I feel deprived.

Even IF I agreed with his naive policies, this would stop me from voting for Barry. Only a sadistic fool would back this procedure and work to keep it legal.
This is my first cloth. Started it at lunchtime while I was at work today and finished it during the Steeler game this evening. It was easy..AND I learned a new pattern.
The ends need woven in, and I’ll need to wash it before I give it to my coworker. She’s having a baby. I’m going to buy some bath stuff for the baby and include this cloth, and possibly another one, since they’re so easy to make.
This is my first real, COMPLETED, knitting project. I knitted this bag and felted it…OVER A YEAR AGO. I love it. So why haven’t I made anything else, other than a scarf for my mom? I DON’T KNOW!
I read about knitting and buy yarn more than I actually knit. I love knitting..I need to just DO it.
So starting tomorrow, I’m starting a quick and easy project: a dishcloth. Pictures will be forthcoming.
This is my current favorite picture of myself. This doesn’t happen often, but every once in a while, I take one that I really like. So..if you see me on a site that requires an avatar…this will most likely be it..until I take another favorite picture. lol
Why am I blogging with pictures now? Cuz Flickr makes it easy..and I’m testing out the feature!
Random shot of my boy taken in June. It’s usually when I take photos like this that I can see just how quickly he’s maturing. No more baby face. *sigh* I miss my baby..but I’m so amazed at the young man he’s becoming. God is TRULY good..cuz it sure didn’t happen without Him.

Lashawn makes a good point and I wholeheartedly agree: “Must our president be a Christian? In my opinion, no. I’d vote for an atheist, as long as he’s socially conservative.
But I have BIG problems with someone who professes Christ and tries to appeal to Christians through “faith,” when his words and deeds indicate he is NOT a Christian. ”
Because of Barack Obama, my child now: believes he can do anything/believes he can become the president/has higher self-esteem.
Wait a minute: You mean to tell me that before Barry came on the scene, you didn’t teach your child that they could be whatever they wanted to be, accomplish whatever they wanted to accomplish, and that they were worth something?
I don’t need a long drawn out post for this one. It’s simple: ALL OF THIS STARTS AT HOME. Not with celebrities or politicians. My momma ALWAYS inspired me to do my best. She always told me that whatever I wanted to accomplish, I COULD. She made sure I knew I was a person of infinite worth. Not better than anyone else, but certainly NOT WORSE. And she certainly didn’t encourage me to wait until someone else did something before I felt like I could do it too.
So if your child hasn’t learned that lesson yet, I’ma need you to look in the mirror. Not at the blasted TV.
