Attack of the Grits


Attack of the Grits

Snoopy and I entered Grits and Sticks Day and we won!! This contest was held by Kris of Sonny and Shear and Snoopy was a great helper in protecting the grits. I was able to take several photos before he started snacking on the grits.

What else has been going on?... Dad was in the hospital for about a week then we got him home. What did he have? An infection. They couldn't tell us waht kind or what caused it. So I will keep my rant about that to myself.

Then mom went in the hopsital last week. For those that don't know we work together. She was walking down some steps at work and fell. As she was falling she turned so she wouldnt land on her face and landed very hard on her right arm, breaking her elbow and another bone in her arm. She also hit her head very hard. I was across the room and heard her microphone snap off her shirt, I turned around and she was already on the floor. I got to her side and called for an ambulance, lucky for us the firestation is literally across the street.

it was scary but we got her taken care of.

So moms arm is in a sling and her head is healing up after getting staples out it.

With all that happening the past month has been very crazy.

Does anyone know where I can buy bubbles to put my family into?

18.25 miles of sock yarn

Today is flash your stash day. I will not be able to take a current picture due to work and family obligations so I found the most recent stash picture. Here is 18.25 miles of sock yarn. It has gone up to 20 miles since then.

I can't say NO to sock yarn. So Sad.

Oh, this is only 1/3 of my entire yarn stash :)

Don't you love the sheet its on? Snoopy tried to snuggle down in the middle of all the fibery goodness and make a nest out of Lorna's Laces. Silly Puppers.

On a personal note, my dad is ill and is currently residing in a local hospital with hopefully pneumonia. It's either that or he needs a new heart valve. So we are hoping for Pneumonia. More as I know it.

I hope everyone has a good week and stays safe and healthy!
