Trying.






She said I couldn't.
That it wouldn't work.

But I was determined.
I wanted it to work.

I knew I could do it if I just kept at it.

And finally.
I did it.

It was not perfect.


But it was my very first wreath.

And I did it.

*smile*


Love and sunshine....
Teaching without trying....

MFEO




The best part of my day.

I had a long list of tasks to accomplish yesterday.
Longer than usual as I am leaving on a jet plane tomorrow.

When I picked Katie up for school she was tired.
She did not talk much on the car ride home.
A little while after she was home I yelled to her,
come upstairs, let's take some pictures,
it's getting dark.

And so she trailed along behind me up to my bedroom that has a large window.

I blew a fan right in her face.
(Annie Leibovitz lists a fan as one of her main pieces of equipment.)

And we just goofed off for five minutes.

If that.

And it was the best part of my day.

To her, it is just a blip.
It's a favor to me.
Like opening the door or carrying a package.

No big deal.

We two.

We were MFEO.

Made for each other.





Another day with a long list and an ultrasound.
I think they like me over at the hospital.
They keep asking me to come back.

Happy hump day!

Good morning!

I just finished Sock Knitting tutorial # 1 1/2.
Let me just say. I am here for ya, Di. :o)

Really. What else have I got to do?
I am not kidding about that.

So the first of the two sock knitting videos that I put up today will be a demonstration of
going from the cast on stitches on one needle to stitches on four needles.

The second tutorial. The official part #2 will be the heel.

Here is how Youtube works.
I get ten minutes and then the video is too large. So that is my time limit.
It takes almost an hour from that ten minutes to upload to youtube.
That is why you don't get to see it for a while.

In an hour or so, I will post the first video.

Can you imagine if I had a slow connection?

I also love that Axelle, our French reader, can listen to these tutorials and learn English.
I love that so much!
Axelle will speak English with a Northern accent.....I hope :o)

The world wide web is really a remarkable thing.

Friends in California and France and everywhere in between.

Thank you for stopping by and being a part of my life.
