oh no, i'm not talking about thread today!

my poor impatiens :( i hope they make it.

Hello? Spring? where are you? this is TEXAS?!?
(hehehee ck out my Texas Truck - i love my 'burban! :D -- so sad all covered in snow)

yes, it's dark out. we are up before the sun. brrrrr - it's cold!

yesterday was normal. hubby even mowed. here's the proof on my doggie's feet:
Sally's green!

aren't they cute!?!

i haven't made a thread snowflake yet today. i know i'm supposed to re-do the one from last week, but i don't know... think i'll look at the next pattern and see if i like it better.

the construction going on in the house is driving me mad! no matter how much i sweep and run the floormate, there is white powder all over the floor! UGH - curse the drywall dust!! i now understand why people go stay in a hotel during renovations. before i always thought it was kinda crazy and a waste of money... not anymore!

on the knitting front - i'm no good. i start out with 10 cast on and then after a few inches of work, i have around 20! i know i'm adding them somewhere in the purl, but i just can't figure it out! i'm going to sit down with it and my instruction dvd today and see what i come up with. hopefully i will be able to solve my problem.

well, that's it for now, ya'll. i have to scrub walls in the hall and then start taping the moulding off..... they are supposed to get re-textured today! WOOHOO!

Yikes! I don't think your impatiens will survive that. :(

What kind of yarn are you using to learn knitting? A plain yarn, or a novelty type? I recommend plain for learning. Hmmm... my guess would be that you're not pulling the old stitch off the needle after you do the new stitch, but I don't know enough about knitting yet to be sure. Good luck!

the impatiens might survive, I have faith!

as for the dust -- I know what you mean! since we bought our house in aug it's been in a constant state of construction that just moves from room to room. dust everywhere, tools everywhere... aii!

the doggies are so cute :)

Oh my gosh. I will NOT complain about our chilly, cloudy weather anymore.....I hope your flowers do survive! And I hope sunshine finds us both....soon!!!

Where in Texas are you? My sweetie is in Dallas (I'll be joining him in 3 mos! Woo hoo!) and he hasn't mentioned anything about snow. Hmm....

It snowed just to give you a hard time about Snowflake Mondays, that's all. Of course, if that were true we'd be getting buckets of the stuff because I missed it today. Trying to finish up the Mother's Day roses! I'm never going to make it. They'll get done in time, but they have to be mailed too.

I agree if your purling and gettting double stitches you might not be dropping off the stitch.

The doggies are cuties.

Sorry about the dust. Can you put a sucker fan in the window. I don't know if that works in the snow but we use it in the summer.

D

yech, is that really snow?? Maybe it is just drywall dust that escaped the house? LOL
Those doggies are soooooooo cute - I laughed with their green footsies, hahaaa, definitely lawn mowing proof.

I just love the color green on your pup's paws. They are cute! You should definitly do that around Easter, and tell everyone they were coloring eggs. LOL
