Three Things

Three things = Misc. information in random order. I thought that would be a good way to sum up some stuff of late.

Three things I've been busy with:

1. School field trips

Battleship Cove--very cool



Old Sturbridge Village--highlights include making a toy (house) from a block of wood, seeing the very old knitting projects, and the kids figuring what in the world an "outhouse" is for...



2. The end of the spring soccer season



3. Keegan's graduation from Preschool (sniff)

The performed a cute song with lyrics in sign language and sung as well. Adorable. Keegan was by far the loudest signer out there. (Think about it.)



OK, we were all excited:



I was planning much more, but I have to stop.

1. It's getting late.
2. It took longer to upload my backlog of photos than I expected and Brian's back already.
3. Turns out I can't yet post pics here from Flickr (or I just haven't figured it out) so half my photos aren't available right now, unless they're on Photobucket. And that just ruins the lists I have going on in my head, so I'll have to get it straightened out.

Back to knitting!

Cat Got Your Tongue?

Well, apparently so.

Ever feel like you don't have very much to say? Somehow everything I've thought of blogging about has seemed like it would bore the devil out of anyone. Sad, right? I mean, what kind of life is that, that everything I've done in the last month is so darned uninteresting?

To tell the truth, it hasn't been so uninteresting. It just feels like it is.

I think that it's the fact that it has gotten so warm here in Rhode Island. Today is in the 60's, but we've experienced some unusual heat lately. (O.k., small aside here...I've thought my life was too boring to blog, and now I've decided to start talking about the weather?! Send help...) The heat makes it hard to knit, you know? So I've been trying to keep up with my knitting and still get the rest of my stuff done, while allowing several hours to just sit around dying of heat exhaustion--I'm a kind of a heat wimp. After those pressing tasks, there's pretty much nothing left to blog with. Once the kiddos are in bed and everything's cleaned up, the dishwasher's going, etc, Brian and I just retire to the basement family room to watch TV and knit. Kind of pathetic, but it's much cooler down there. Thus, no blogging.

In addition, I'm having trouble keeping up with my pictures. I just never seem to upload them. So I will write this one picture less post and then I will upload at least SOME of my pics (two cameras worth) sometime today. I think that will help to keep things progressing here at the Jilly Knits.

Hey, the good news is that even thought it's been crazy busy and I've been lazy and I've had no energy, I've still managed to keep up with my knitting. I mean, that's important.
