Overload

Seven days till Spring Fling and I am already on overload!  I have mental lists running through my brain.  I suppose I should write some of this stuff down so I don't forget - a wide variety of stuff to bring - from yarn and needles to Beef on Weck....yes you read that right, Beef on Weck.  Don't Ask!

What to wear, check the weather; what I need for class, check the requirements and try and decide; what to work on, OMB just check your wip pile for pete's sake and try and refrain from starting something new "just for Fling"!  And the arrival dinner and meeting all the new people, and the shopping at The Loopy Ewe IN PERSON!...and I have learned there is a Loopy Ewe song, how amazing is that?  Can't wait to participate in thatI can feel myself getting carried away!  The anticipation is just too much!  I may just bust before next week......I really should make some lists.

And guess what, when it is all said and done, and I have made memories to last a life time and survived laugh headaches that you cannot imagine....I get to come home and get ready for Maryland Sheep and Wool....how awesome is that?

Randomness

Randomness.....I cannot wait till Fling...I may even start to hyperventilate a little bit every time I think about it.  And after Fling comes Maryland Sheep and Wool, amazing!  I simply can't believe that I got lucky enough to be able to go to both events this year.  With all the bad karma lately, this is really a stroke of impossibly good luck!

Happened to score Bugga today at The Loopy Ewe update!  I see four new shawls in my future.  Deciding on four patterns should prove to be interesting.

Deciding on what knitting to take with me to Fling should prove to be interesting!  I have works in progress, but I would love to cast on something new.  I also know that I should NOT attempt anything that remotely needs any sort of attention or counting on my part.  Vanilla socks anyone?  If only I knit socks...no better time to start than now, huh?

I guess I should go attack some of those wips.  See how far I get, then I can decide what's next!

Fabulous Friday


It's Buffalo, April 2nd, and it is 78 degrees outside!  Awesome!  And what a day it's been, great weather, a visit from my favorite little man, Jordan, a trip to see Jon at HOD Tattoo to watch Lynn get her memorial tattoo for James Michael 

















and a stop at Louie's for lunch.....

















and to top it off, a walk with Millie the older of our two dogs and a "new" used bike that is perfect for me!!!
It certainly is a fabulous Friday!
