It is not unusual to have rain in the Redwood National Forest.� What is unusual is to have standing water in my yard.� We’ve really gotten hammered this year with the wet stuff.� Enough already!
I know we need lots of rain to keep these big trees growing but I want to put in my garden and I cannot as long as the ground is so saturated.� The pond is briming and over-running it’s edge, the Koi are hiding and the weeds are growing.� See what I mean?� No this picture isn’t fuzzy, it is�� (picture deleted from archives)
RAINING!
I�started he youngest’s chub last night.� She needs something to wear over her Flower Girl dress because it is sleeveless.� I’m using Heirloom, Breeze from The Australian Yarn Company .� It will look like this (picture deleted from archives)…actually is won’t, the yarn I’m using is off-white, it won’t be fuzzy and it will be shorter…..but you get the idea.
I spent this early morning looking at my new book “Inspired Cables”.� I love new books and this one is a doozie!� It has beautiful patterns but the best part is all the directions are in either charts or written instructions.� I can hardly wait to make the very last sweater in the book but I have to finish the Chub first and decide what’s for dinner this week and clean house and plant peas and carrots and do laundry and worry about finding an outfit to wear for the wedding and…..Oh drat!
So, I’m off the the sock machine.� I have 3 pairs to make today because I picked up another couple or orders from The Perfect Yarn yesterday.� Happy Easter and stay dry!

Darn. I came to check out your photos for the blog-a-long, but they didn’t load.

Yep, I can’t see them either.
So sorry. I’ll try later. I know what you mean about too much rain. We get an awful lot of the wet stuff here it seems.
