We are ready to safely view the eclipse here.
Have my homemade viewing box.
Now if the cloud cover would just roll out of here we might actually get to see some of it. Where we live about 83% will be covered. I hope we at least get a glimpse of it.
I had plans for today’s posts. It was going to be spectacular…tons of photos…a walk through of my latest project in process.
But then….my phone died. As in, it was no more.
I use my phone to take quick in process pictures instead of my DSLR.
Off to the store I went to have them look at it and buy a new one if need be. It wouldn’t turn on for them either so…I picked out a new one to replace my over 2.5 yr old phone which seems to be a senior citizen in the phone world. I switched from Apple to Android. This will take a little adjustment period.
Here’s a little snippet of my project. More to come…
Today after my morning coffee (reused photo) and a bite to eat, its off to volleyball tryouts for the girl. Me… I’ll be measuring all the hard surface areas of our property to determine if we can extend the edge of our driveway a bit to make room for more parking. Did I mention that I’ll be signing Mini-me up for the classroom portion of drivers ed very soon? AGH! They are growing up too fast!
That’s what I decided to call my near inability to follow a pattern. I’ve decided that I’m ok with that. I crochet mainly for myself making dishcloths. My stemware really doesn’t care if I have too many or too few stitches. Why should I?
Honestly, I can and have followed a pattern…once for sure. The green hexagonal dishcloth proves it. I’m pretty sure the purple one is correct as well. The rest of them..not so much.
I tend to crochet when I’m waiting or watching TV. I think its the TV that screws me up with the whole pattern thing. OH well. They are pretty and will certainly clean dishes so that’s all that matters.
Incidentally…the purple yarn is the last of my cabbage dyed yarn.
