WAIT FOR IT

This Sheep and Wool is going to be the best ever. I can't wait! I told Mel that I was not going to be buying a lot since I already had so much and she had the NERVE to laugh at me. I have to say that she tried not to. There was a silence for awhile, I guess while she supressed her laughter after getting over the ludicrousness of the statement. Then she laughed, quite loudly I might add. She even equated it to my laughter when she told me that the $200 I gave her was too much and she'd never be able to spend it. I seem to recall that she went home with more wool than me that time AND she had spent $100 of her OWN money. Quite funny.

Well, I hope to restrain myself. I look at all the wool I have and cannot imagine ever using it all. Of course, that's what she wants. SHE wants me to buy more so that she gets it all, sooner or later. Hopefully much later. I offered to let HER live with me if she can't find a job after school but then I realized I could not allow her all that free access to my stash. She would have to sleep upstairs! (Never trust another knitter around your stash, especially if they are related to you!)

Besides, I am weak and they both know that mine is theirs. All they have to do is admire it (NOT THE QUIVIAT) and I would probably give it to them. The guilt is incredible and they prey on it. (THEY know who they are!)

What a busy weekend I had. Saturday I saw "How to train your dragon" which was fabulous. I highly recommend it. You do not need a kid to see it. Mary and I were not the only adults without kids to see it. Very entertaining.

Sunday was Ava's christening. What a time. I have not been to a Catholic mass since I took Yara to one in 1987. Believe me, there has been no improvement. The priest who gave the homily was from India. Needless to say, not a word was understood. I think I feel asleep. No knitting, either. It was a long 90 minutes that I will never get back! Ava's part was fun, though. She slept through the entire thing.

Took Dad to Target. They have a drivable cart that he used. He bought a microwave to make himself pizza and other meals. Frank tried to buy an ice cream maker but they did not have what he wanted. Shopping with two men is not fun! Remind me not to do that again.

So now it's work for four days and then the fun begins. I can hardly wait!
