Sour Grapes ...

This weekend was supposed to be a fun shopping weekend-getaway. Just the girls. One swift phone call this morning changed all that. The excuse? Weather. Is the weather happening yet? No. To say I'm disappointed is putting it lightly. My day has been SOUR GRAPES.

I know this sounds extremely negative and the calamities at work would have occurred regardless, however, my response to them may have been different. Ugh. Sour grapes. Praise God. Tomorrow is a new day.

So many hours, so little time....

Okay - so I start the day pretty early, right? Well, 6:20am probably isn't all that early to some of you, but after a somewhat restless night, it comes pretty early for me most days. I rush to get ready, rush to get little man to school, rush to get to work, rush to get things accomplished at during the day, rush to pick up little man in time, rush to have something prepared for dinner before the Mr. gets home, rush to get little man's reading completed and homework done. Now it's about 9pm and I'm ready for my day to be done. When is it time for me? Yeah, I'm being whiny. There I'm done.
Off to knit. At this rate, maybe someday I'll have A sock completed.

I'm a blogger!



Okay - I've decided to try out this blog thing and since I love to knit I decided to join the league of knitting bloggers. I know I won't be able to live up to the demands set by you hard-core bloggers, but at this will at least give me a place to put my thoughts and the avenue to share some photos with those family and friends who care to view this page.

Who am I? Well, I'm a wife and mom. I love to knit and read. I bleed orange and blue all year, but especially during football and basketball season. GO ILLINI!

Right now I have several projects on the needles and will eventually get them listed here, but for now, you'll have to settle for pictures of the fam.
