Good Evening ladies! I may not have time to get in here to post in the morning as tomorrow is the dreaded commissary day and I want to get out there and get done before the idiots that are shopping for new year's eve descend on the place. I cleaned out my pantry and fridge of allllll bad stuff
and my list only has good stuff on it...
so I will be ready food wise. I left Jack his one small bag of chips, but anything left after New Year's day and out it goes. He has promised me workouts 4 days a week and I am holding him to at least 2 to start out, Sat and Sunday. As for me, I plan on starting completely over with 2 walks a day again, morning and early evening. I will also do a couple days with weights and do treadmill when I don't want to get dressed and go out or it is cold or something. Besides my long time cds, Jack bought some Napster cards and recorded me some Johnny Rivers, Neil Sedaka, Ricky Nelson, Gary Puckett and several others. So I am ready to go with music too!
Maggie: You ask me about coming projects, well you ask so here goes. I already showed you the sweater and yarn for my sister's sweater. I am using the same pattern and making myself one out of the yarn below (the purple and teal) I am making this sweater with this yarn (the gold.brown) to replace the shrug for my dd and closer to Christmas I will decide which one and again make T a sweater, just not three this year! He wore his Beatle sweater on Wed all day, but it is too short for his long torso so we decided to have her remove the buttons and patch and buy him a blue Jean jacket and put them on it. He wore the brown sweater all day on Tuesday and loved it and Kelly says he looks really good in it. I am also working on a blanket for the baby and will have to post the patterns pics later as I am at my 5 attachment limit tonight. I still want to make another red hat for my luncheons and I want to get it going and done next week as my luncheon is the 13th. Oh and I am also going to make this sleeveless shell with this yarn and either make a jacket or shrug to go over it or buy one for the shows, dinner and club stuff when we are on vacation. So there you have the knitting projects for this year. Hopefully, I can get them all accomplished. I am having fun with the purple handbag I made. The straps are stretchy and so I can wear it mailbag style over my chest when I am shopping! I really love it. Can't wait to make another felt bag. I didn't know WW had cool weigh scales like that. That is awesome. Better keep a reign on that handsome husband of yours or someone is going to run off with him and ragg mopp!!!
If he is anything like Jack, he is totally clueless when a woman truly pays attention in that way. Jack draws the young ones, which I think is hilarious!
Please keep prayers for my nephew who is again involved in drugs/prescription type but getting them illegally. He was arrested this summer and kept out of prison by the skin of his teeth and he is back at it. If he gets caught this time he will go to prison. He is a professional man, not a kid and he is throwing his life away. He lives in FL, where the drug laws are very very strict. His parents are not being helpful in this as they are putting their heads in the sand somewhat and not making him take responsibility for his actions. Just keep them in your prayers! Thanks.
Jean: I can just see Zowie, like those kids in the Annie movie pounding on the table with their fists and their utensils in their hands wanting food!
She was probably thinking, "Ok man, I sat down at the table so where's the grub???" She sounds like a real cutey pie.
We are taking T next Saturday to the Chucksters. We have owed him a trip since his last report card so they finally have found time to let him go. We go at around 9, can you say "UGH, pizza for breakfast?" Thank goodness I dispise their nasty pizza and can get a salad if we are still there at lunch even though their stupid cheesy salad is more than the national debt. Maybe I will just buy a drink and sneak in some peeled and bagged fruit or something. My handbag is big enough to hold a whole meal!
Well, I need to go upstairs and put clothes away. Jack is always such a doll and carried the basket up and puts everything away except my clothes.
Everyone have a good even and a great day tomorrow!
