Mid-April KAL and Some Flower Pictures

Saturday, May 2nd, 2009

The mid-April KAL was called April Showers and designed by Deborah C. Tilley. It does look like falling rain. The yarn is Sugar””””n Cream Faded Denim and was knit on US 6 needles.  My Moebius wrap is getting ever wider and getting closer to being done.  The picture here was taken on 4-24-09, but I””””ve made significant progress since then.  The kids had a blast dying eggs on Easter Sunday, before Sarah went back to school.  The eggs were boiled on the Saturday before, but we ran out of time, then. I””””ve also enjoyed watching the flowers grow and bloom.

We are hoping that the flu passes us by. So far we””””ve been lucky, although Emily and I recently had colds.  Mine is still here, but getting better everyday.  So far, Gary has still been healthy.  Emily is hoping they DON”T have a “flu-cation” from school.  She thinks it”””’’s bad enough that we have to make up the wintry days on June 12th and June 15th.

Today, the sun is shining and the temperature is in the high 50”””’’s, which is a huge improvement over last week”””’’s rain. A few blocks from us, a sewer collapsed, so a major intersection is going to closed off for a month.  Ugh. I hope the time goes fast.
