I love my Tuesdays and Thursdays! Somewhere along the line I decided to take those days off and the price of gas has cemented that. And I've even been able to take a few Fridays too. So I do a few hours from home and two 8 hour days (which almost kills me)in the office. Today in between loads of laundry and work emails, I caught a nap, read a book and found a few cool Internet sites. I'm already a fan of tiphero.com which led me to FaveCrafts.com and TipNut.com
Ara is painstakingly dethatching the yard with a thatching rake. He has the front yard done and halfway done with the back yard. We're on 1/3 of an acre, I think. And then we'll do another round of weed killer and hopefully the yard will bounce back. He's in some fantasy land thinking that this is raising his metabolism and that he'll have rippling muscles by the time summer hits.
Last weekend I found a $20 on the ground at Dairy Queen after chanting for three days in a row that 'money come easily and frequently'. So now I'm a believer in The Secret. lol. Trying to get Ara on board to chant with me. haha. We watched the video on netflix and I checked out the website, made a bulletin board with everything I want to attract my way---like a new car, roller blades, etc. Ara thinks I'm a nut, I think I'm overboard trying to counteract his pessimism.
I started the crochet along project hosted by redheart yarn. I only have two of the squares done, and they're already done and starting a knit along project now. It took me forever to choose my colors and the you tube videos help out tons. This is my first Afghan. If I could keep track of my camera I would post a pic. maybe later.
I also discovered the trick to getting Ara to take/pick up Cole from drivers ed....if I slam down a beer with dinner Ara won't let me drive...tee hee. I still have a mini coronary every time I get in the car with that boy. We don't call him Zippy for nothing.
