I know, it has been a while since I posted, but school is out tomorrow. So, that will free me up for more knitting!! YEAH!! This scarf is boring, I know, but it is for a good cause. My friend Dee Dee has two children with CF. They are 5 and 3. She is going to be selling some bears at a local festival in October and has asked me to knit some items as well so that she can sell them. So, this is number one. It is mindless and I don't have to think too much about it. Good thing because my mind has been on one thing lately, paperwork for school and getting finished. Two former students (they are in third grade) had a game day today. They came in my room around 1:30 and asked me to cast on for them, they forgot how. How great is that? Not that they forgot, but that they think of me as a knowledgeable person that could help. One girl brought her needles and yarn the other little girl forgot hers, so she was using pencils. That was a first for me, but I cast on for her. I told them both that I would bring my knitting bag tomorrow and they could come back and we would just knit up a storm! FUN! They were thrilled. So tomorrow it will be me, Rebecca and Hannah just having a big fun time at school knitting. Maybe I should as the legislature if knitting could be added to the curriculum?

I think it's great that you're teaching those kids to knit! And good causes are NEVER too boring! I'm excited about my marathon training but I am SO sore after yesterday's run that my calves are screaming to stop.I'm ignoring them. =) If you don't mind my saying so, I think Gregg is a very neat name for a girl, what's the story behind it? Or is there one?
I HAVE seen the new M/D book. I am looking to purchase it in the near future but it's down on the list a few slots. So bad, that nasty tropical storm. I remember the day Hugo was supposed to hit Ft. Bragg and we were all boarded up....it turned and headed for Charlotte. Had a great run that day! Contemplating not running tonight as I am super sore from lifting the other day (ever get more sore as the days pass? weird.)Probably will though because I blew my diet today. Gotta get one thing right!
