Thursday

It's Thursday, April 18. It's cold and yucky here today at the Jersey Shore. I'm VERY ready for nice weather, flowers growing outside, grilling, sitting on the porch, not being cold at baseball, yada yada....

I'm wrapping up my work day right now and thought I would share a few pictures from the week.

I made a bunch of these yummy egg, sausage muffins and froze a batch. Then my fridge died. Super. I had a repairman come and fix it but unfortunately all food was lost. So now I just have this nice picture. Glad we ate a few before I froze them! Fridge is fixed, now time to make more.

More sock knitting at baseball.

Monday coffee and knitting with my friends. We were all back together after weeks of someone missing for one reason or another. It was so good to be around the table with them.

My friend, Seashore Sharon is so happy I'm knitting socks! We also share a love of similar books so you can imagine my excitement when she gifted me a new project bag, a sock pattern, yarn and a new book to read. I'm about 2/3 done and I love it!!!! 

You guys.........my friend, Paige "Paige the Framer" was so sweet and framed my original sketch that became the winning 2024 Rhinebeck logo. It's very nice to have talented friends! I will treasure this forever and ever. I have to find the perfect place to hang it.

Sox the cat. By far the best cat in the world. His brother, Buddy the dog has ruined his chances of sitting on my lap while I work. But Buddy was napping and Sox took advantage. It was nice to get to cuddle for a bit. 

More sock progress!

I also swatched and casted on for my second Rhinebeck sweater. I'm so excited about this one. 

I'll share updated photos once I have more to show. 

We've had a long few days and lots of things broke...husband's car (twice...ugh, think it's time for a new one......), the fridge (now fixed), and today I had a flat tire and needed a new one. Oh the joys....BUT I will focus on the good. I've been surrounded by sad and worry lately and our hearts have been heavy as a dear friend is going through a mother's worst nightmare. The good...I have wonderful friends, yarn is healing, books and knitting keep you great company, concert season is approaching, my kids are healthy and thriving, lunch with my grandmother, happy animals, new music, new shows to watch and looking forward to a fun weekend with fiber friends.
