Hot and Hotter

The weather has gone from hot to hotter, heat index today 115 they say. It all makes me very glad that this is not the week I was moving, believe me--- it was hot enough when I did.

You know your settled in when:
  • You've unpacked everything (the basement does not count)
  • Things are hung on the walls
  • You've cleaned post-move
  • An actual meal has been prepared in the kitchen that is eaten sitting down at a table using real utensils. The meal is Real Food.
  • and--
  • Knitting Has Happened!
Finally I was able to go to meet the knitters on Tuesday and actually managed to knit a couple of rows. It took the better part of an hour to remember where I was in the process of two projects!

There are crazy brides right now requiring attention, work is fairly hairy and I still confess to collapsing in the evenings unable to hold the requisite tools of knitting. It will get better I know it will. The worst of it is that the squirreling away I thought I'd be doing this summer has just not happened, nor is it likely to!

I think for the moment, changing plans is going to have to be a Big Girl Attempt at facing reality, accepting changes and moving on. It's sort of like frogging (or tossing) old projects that no longer serve you!

I wish I had something wonderful to add, some fabulous project completed or even new goodies purchased. Right now, holding my own is a wonderful thing. (And have I mentioned how I adore my aqua and red kitchen????)
