Makers' Monday

I can't believe it's Monday already.  Where did the weekend go?

This past Friday was sunny and it was... not warm but also not frigid and I was suffering from a massive case of spring fever.

I drove over to the lake with my knitting bag riding shotgun.  I planned to spend a few hours enjoying the view and the sunshine from the interior of my car.  But as soon as I'd pulled out my knitting, I got the call that a relative was sick and needed help getting to the doctor's office.  I snapped a quick photo just to prove I'd been there and hit the highway.  And that was the end of knitting for the day.

I didn't get much knitting done Saturday either.  I intended to catch up on email and blog reading.  It is amazing how quickly I fell behind since Sarah began taking my computer with her to school three days a week.  We really, really need to do something about that situation.  But I digress.

About the time I hit the Gmail button on my computer, Mike announced that he was going to start eating healthier and that he thought we needed to cut our carb intake.  I mentioned that I'd been trying to eat nothing but lean meats and vegetables for the past several weeks.  He thought that sounded like a fine diet and suggested we go to the grocery store to stock up on fresh vegetables.  Seeing as though this was the first time in our 24+ years of marriage that we were in agreement about our diet, I quickly closed my computer and off we went.  So once again, not much knitting or email reading got done.

Sunday was a knit filled day however.  It was one of those glorious cold, rainy days where you just want to stay in your pajamas, snuggled up under a blanket and knit and read and drink hot tea all day days.  And so I did.  In my money-pants pajamas.  Don't judge.  As ridiculous as they look, they are ridiculously comfy.

But enough about me.  It's Makers' Monday.  Tell me all about what you're making.
