Early in the Morning

Every once in a while you have to stop and think.  As I went about my morning I kept humming.  I wasn't aware of what I was humming until my son left for school.  Dare I say it...ABBA's "Slipping throough my fingers".  The irony...as I send my son off to school in the morning...I apparently was unconciously thinking about how much he is growing up.

So..I am thankful & unthankful for the time change.  Thankful for a little peace and quiet prior to the caos that will no doubt unsue once the mini-munchkins are awake, unthankful that poor Devon & myself had to get up "early".

Knitting...hmmm...well R2D2 did get completed...should have been frogged ... but was finished anyway...did it fit?  Well if your under 8...yes...but if you are the daddy that wanted the hat...that would be no...back to the knitting needles for a new one.  In the meantime, he was thinking it would be "cool" to add R2s legs on to the "small" hat...the legs would come down and cover the ears of the wearer...if I do this I will be sure to take a photo.  Wrap number one is finished and has been used by bothe bums, however Lee doesn't seem very eager to wear it, I think he is so use to the wraps, that the idea of a wool soaker he can't wrap his mind around, even when it is wrapping up his bum.  Needle status...new R2D2 hat ? maybe, I am investigating a technique,a nd might try doing a little of the technique with the R2D2, right now I have about 3/4 of the "base" hat done.  I have the begginign of two wraps on needles.  I would also like to cast on a pair of socks for Bre, and maybe a pair of tights, I would also like to get the back of a sweater cast on.

My crew is growing, and here is a little momento.

They wont be getting any younger, but the due sure grow up quickly!

I am having one of "those" morning where I feel like I am going from song to song.  Starting with Abba, moving to "Your gonna miss this" by Trace Atkins, mixed with a little "It won't be like this for long" by Darius Rucker, maybe add in a little "Moments" by Emerson Drive...and its not yet noon.

Well better go "swab" the deck before the Captain complains.

Until next time, I will be trying to keep my needles clicking.

PS. Those looking for the LSR this week...he is away at sea.
