Take a breath
Boy or boy are things busy here.
Socks
I finished knitting up all the customer’s orders and shipped them out on Wednesday. All I have left are 36 pair from the BIG order. Go figure…I went to the mail box and there were 3 more boxes of socks from new customer’s. Now I’m not complaining, it was just weird that I had finished the outstanding orders that same day.
Baby
She and the parents are doing great as they learn about each other. If you’ve had a baby you can remember those first weeks where you’re trying to figure each other out. The schedule, what works, what doesn’t. No one can tell new parents everything, they just have to experience it for themselves. Practice makes perfect until the next baby comes along and everything you learned goes out the window.
Moving
Well, if the weather gods cooperate and the stars are aligned perfectly we may actually get our home moved to our property tomorrow. I’ve asked the DH to take the day off as I am not particularly diplomatic in stressful situations. (In fact I seem to have developed a small case of shingles from all the bottled up stress.) Even though I mailed out letters to all 25 residents of the surrounding mountain, you can bet someone won’t get theirs and they will be upset about the detour. I felt it would be a good idea for the DH to be fully rested instead of working graveyard tonight so he won’t want to shoot someone. I think getting into a fight with a new neighbor would not be a good way to start out.
Garden
The garden is in the process of being planted. I know, I know, this seems a bit late but believe me when I say until you’ve tried to grow a garden on the Pacific coast you’ve not experienced the necessity to take it slow. If you plant too early you will surly get an unseasonable rain or even snow and watch as all your hard work Wash down the river.
So that’s it for now. Here is a nice rose picture from the DD’s garden. Makes me take a deep breath and relax. Enjoy your day.
