I have been “8 Things Meme” tagged!

I was tagged by my Cyber-Knitting Friend, Isabelle.

The rules:
1. Each player starts with 8 random facts/habits about themselves
2. People who are tagged write a blog post about their own 8 random things and post these rules
3. At the end of your blog you need to tag 8 people and post their names
4. Don’t forget to leave them a comment and tell them they’re tagged, and to read your blog.

So, here are my 8 things:
1. I can’t stand feet…but I LOVE socks
2. I can’t cook if the kitchen is dirty.
3. I am addicted to my iPod.
4. I would love to meet Gerard Way of My Chemical Romance.
5. I have never broken a bone
6. I have had stitches, once. On my chin. It was my brothers’ fault!
7. I can’t STAND to get dirty. Makes working in the garden very interesting lol.
8. I still have a stuffed siamese cat from when I was an infant. It sits on my dresser

And here are the 8 people I chose to tag:
Katy, Bee, Penny, Ruth, My daughter, Faith, Crazy4Knitting, and Craft Lover.

I tried to get pictures of my shawl in progress, but my stupid camera batteries died..they are recharging. By the time the stupid thing charges, I will probably be done with the shawl

What kind of knitting needles are you?

You are pink aluminum.Retro, straightforward and fun, you love classic things. If they’re 99 cents at Goodwill all the better! You are moved by striking colors and tasty morsels, and you like a stitch-n-bitch session in the sun. Just remember, while you’re being kitschy cool, don’t get too cold. Ice cubes are best kept in your cocktails, baby!

Happy Easter

Or is it “Keaster”?

 

Late April Fools

I think Mother Nature is playing a late (and very cruel) April Fool’s Joke. We have SNOW. My poor snow drops & crocuses are covered in the white stuff.

Wicked sense of humor, that Mother Nature.

You are The Star

Hope, expectation, Bright promises.

The Star is one of the great cards of faith, dreams realised

The Star is a card that looks to the future. It does not predict any immediate or powerful change, but it does predict hope and healing. This card suggests clarity of vision, spiritual insight. And, most importantly, that unexpected help will be coming, with water to quench your thirst, with a guiding light to the future. They might say you’re a dreamer, but you’re not the only one.
