So, where have I been and what have I been doing?
Living! So many things happening. New extra-grandbabies, the loss of family members and pets, a change in the job scene for my husband and myself.
We started off the year with the passing of my father-in-law. It was a trying and stressful experience but he was home with family and love surrounding him. He passed on his own terms. I think we are all coping in our own way and mostly have gotten back to the everyday act of living.
My husband is now working at a local hobby store, selling Radio Control cars and planes. I started my own business as a Jamberry Nails Independent Consultant. It has been fun to meet new ladies and of course I get to feed my Nail arts/polish addiction in another way.
One of our daughters moved out of state to Iowa and is loving her independence, although she is missing her friends from Minnesota.
Our older daughter is living in Philadelphia and working at a dealership as a service coordinator. She seems to be doing well.
Our son joined the Army National Guard for Minnesota and is working for a company doing security for Fed Ex. He enjoys it and is working on saving to move out with some of his friends. He is also wanting to get training on welding and forging.
I have put my knitting and crochet on hold for awhile while getting my business going. But I have a new extra grand baby on the way who needs a lovey blankie. I will need to dig it out soon. Also I've been wanting to whip up some more fingerless gloves. They are nice to wear over my stretch knit gloves for extra warmth and to cover my arms at work .
Feel free to share you favorite patterns. I am getting better at crochet, but knitting is still my forte.
More soon. I promise it won't be so long between times
