Where has the time gone?? Can't believe that it's been 6 months since I last posted on this blog. Spring is now upon us, so glad to say Goodbye to the winter weather!! Haven't had a lot of crochet or knit time lately. Too busy with school and work to sneak much else in! I really must find some time to get some baby stuff done for my nephew and his wife and for my newest grandchild due in September.....just to pack a few more hours into each day!

Once again, it's been a very long time since I posted anything on this blog! Life just seems to keep getting in the way! My momma went home to be with Jesus Sept. 16, 2014 @ 12:47pm. We buried her on Sept 19, and it all still seems like a really bad dream that I can't wake up from. They say it will get easier in time, we shall see. I am hurting so right now and hopefully that hurt will ease in time too. Haven't had much time to do any crochet or knitting. School is in full swing and I am taking a full 12 credit hours this semester. What was I thinking??? :) That I just want to get school done and over with, that's what I'm thinking!!! Fall is here, and soon it will be winter........not looking forward to snow, cold and ice just yet!

Nearly finished with my very first knit sock (using dpn's to boot)! Don't know why I always had such a problem in the past with these needles. This is coming together quite nicely..not perfect, but for a first one, really good if i do say so myself! No i think i am addicted to sock knitting....have already picked up yarn for a second pair and still have the second one of these to make! :)

Well, once again we are going through another winter storm. Temps with windchills as great as -30.  I am so ready for Winter to be done and over with! With weather just wreaks havoc with my fibromyalgia and osteoarthritis!

Spring semester has started. Whatever possessed me to take 14 credit hours this semester, I don't know. UGH!!! I am going to be beyond busy with working full time and school full time! Oh well, it's gotta get done I guess!

Have the weekend off this weekend, am planning to do nothing and just enjoy my two days off! Maybe do some crocheting and knitting and catch up on some of the programs I have dvr'd through the week! :)

I've been working on boot cuffs for my cousin's 13 year old daughter and my 16 year old daughter. These seem to be the new rage this year! Super easy to make and can be worn standing up or folded over the top of the boot. The girls like them! Top was made with red heart black light yarn and the bottom with red heart pink camo.

My mutt puppy Polly cuddling up with our big old tom cat Bubba. Polly is such a little sweetheart! But, my does she have a lot of energy!! Love her to pieces though!

Can't believe I haven't posted since March, and we are well into August now! Been a busy few months with school, work and family.  The above picture is of the beginning of a corner to corner afghan that I am making. Hoping I have enough leftovers of the colors I want to use for it to finish it..would hate to have to buy more yarn :)
Summer Semester is finally over. Get  a 2 week break from classes before fall semester starts! So glad all my classes for Fall are online! :) Maybe I will have a little more free time for my crocheting and knitting!!
