The first images on these posts are web images that show the color of the yarn as my photo skills are not that great. This yarn is very hard to photograph well and is even more "shimmery" than the first image shows. I'm really not happy with the way the pictures of this one turned out so I may try again tomorrow in the sun.

What I'm Up To

Listening To: The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho

Looking Forward To: Fall, I love watching the leaves change colors and sitting in front of a nice fire. Reminds me of when we were little and all sat around the wood stove listening to my mother read to us at night. Helpful hint for parents: Reading something like Congo by Michael Crichton to your 4 five to ten year old children right before bedtime may not be the best idea. I seem to remember being terrified after the scene where Amy bites somebody's ear. ~ Thanksgiving, Christmas and then in Feb. Puerto Vallarta! (also trying to talk some people into going back to Maui in August - Hey...if my sister can go to Hawaii twice in one summer I can take two vacations in one year!)

Reading: Mounting Fears by Stuart Woods and The Whole Truth by David Baldacci

Watching: Hell's Kitchen - Pulling for Dave (the one with the cast on one arm)

Working On: Kids settlements for CBJLS ~ Titles, gearing up for the fall auction season ~ Taking pictures of all the crochet projects I've FINALLY finished. There's a fairly wide range of yarns this time as I've been experimenting with wool, cashmere, silk and bamboo blends! Hopefully, I'll get those posted either tonight or tomorrow.

What I'm Up To

Listening To: The Dark Tide by Andrew Gross

Looking Forward To: CBJLS next week.

Reading: The Bodies Left Behind by Jeffery Deaver

Watching: Julie & Julia

Working On: Designing and printing movie tickets, reformatting data for sheep entries (already have the swine and steers done), basically all the last minute details to get ready for CBJLS. Also working on finishing up a few more of my crochet "work in progress" projects so I can finally start some new ones.
