No Dinner Yet!!!

It's 9:45pm and I have just taken dinner out of the oven and my babies are just now eating. DH, couldn't wait...he went to sleep. Another busy night in my household so we are all on the late train...yikes!!! Still looking for a job and I have an assignment to complete to send to my career counselor before morning. What, I like best...well for starters, I love the grey fingless gloves I made for my DD this weekend. They were a design from my dear friend Jan Larson in Cali, and then I love my "Yuletide" Kool Aid dyed fiber with food coloring (red on green and green on red) take a wild guess and lastly I love my "Leaving Autumn" Kool Aid dyed fiber. If only I could make a living on this amazing stuff. Just showing off and having fun in the valley of life.

So join me in losing no less than 10 pounds by Christmas which is on a Saturday this year gotta do it!!

25 Days Until Christmas

I AM BECOMING DYE ARTIST

I think I am going to give up some Mondays for Kool Aid and Food Coloring Dye time. I am calling this one Green Peace.

HOPEFUL WITH SOME ADJUSTMENTS

I decided to divide the blog post into 4 subject areas. I think it will help keep my thoughts clear.

Here I go...

RAISING KANE (me and my family)

Re-living teenage years through my son has been beyond special. Independence 101, he is a great kid but the tests include the mind, body and soul. Then we go to the other end with the girl as she enters puberty. Add a now hot summer, no job for me and the boy then sprinkle everything else on top and we have a masterpiece!

EWE TALKING HOMESTEAD

What's on my needles, wheel and spindle...still working on a shrug from June for my daughter, recasting a baby sweater for a cousin, True Blood knit along. Completed the above spindle spun Romney. Loved working on my spindle with this fiber I think I want some more. Working on the backyard, didn't get the garden in this year I think I will be better prepared next year. Got painting and making some curtains in my mind. Stay tuned...

A HOT MESS

I have been unemployed for way to long. Praying and trying to find the right fit has been a test of all that I am. Really can't add more to this right now.

LIGHT FOR THE JOURNEY

Whew...lot a work not to waste your days, as I said before, you don't get them back.

I'm just saying...

The Season, The Journey, I'm officially blooming

A day after my daughter's 11th birthday, which this match up will only happen once in this lifetime for her turning 11 on the 11th, I find myself being more purposeful. Truly realizing I will never get another day back. I can't continue to waste away, I know that is not God's purpose. I dishonor him with my waste and talking about being sinful...wow. So I have put myself on notice about my waste effective July 12, 2010. What is waste...I think I would call it not caring about the day and allowing my discontent to let it waste away. I'm just saying...
