sighted today...

more decorations going up!


and... found a use for the empty wine bottles I'm so fond of keeping around for "I don't know what" purpose!  No stretched out socks from clothespins, and I expect this will be faster than laying on a towel.


Handknit socks are all clean, but my kitchen smells like a wet sheep now!  Guess I'll have to get used to it since I'm obsessed with knitting them :)

Cleaned house ALL day.... boring!  This week will be super busy with the kids activities, laundry (which is now a big hassle!), tire appt for car, hair appt for me, must try and get new prescription for glasses before I commence driving 1200 miles, school horticulture program meeting and also.... I graduate Friday morning as a full-fledged Master Gardener!  (I have been an "intern" the past year) - this week is sure to fly by!

  1. Thanks for the post. Now my coming week doesn't look so busy! ;o)

    Love the socks all drying lopped over the wine bottles. Had to chuckle at the house smelling like a wet sheep. Better than a wet dog!

    Here's a dumb question for you: So come Friday morning you will be a full-fledged Master Gardener in Virginia. When you move to Minnesota, will you still retain that title? Congratulations, by the way!

  2. Mama Pea, I wish! Nope, I have to start all over again with the U of M Extension Service. The coursework is the same, though, I just need to get certified through the U.

  3. Yeah, that's what I was thinking. We have a very strong Master Gardeners group here in our county and, of course, they're certified through the U of M.
