How I Spent My Summer Vacation
1. Looked for a new car.
2. Started Gossamer Scarf.
3. Painted #4's bedroom.
4. Painted the first of 3 pieces of furniture for her bedroom.
5. Looked for a new car.
6. Went to Tacoma to see American Idols on Tour with #5 and a few thousand squealing pre-teens and teens.
7. Started socks from Nancy Bush's Vintage Socks.
Can't recall the pattern, and obviously neglected for the balance of the summer and currently a WIP.
8. Started new job.
9. Looked for a new car.
10. Enjoyed an evening with Tom Petty.
11. Painted #5's bedroom.
12. Finished Gossamer Scarf. Currently awaiting blocking.
13. Looked for a new car.
14. Helped mother with yet another garage sale as she pares down from house to apartment.
15. Started Bee Booties, finished Bee Booties (gotta love a quick knit).
16. Bought and assembled furniture for #5's room.
17. Started Bee Hat.
18. Looked for a new car.
19. Finished Bee Hat.
20. Enjoyed a week on the Sunshine Coast. A little sun, a little rain, a little relaxation.
21. Started Frenchman's Creek sock from Tsarina Socks
22. Cleaned out lots of STUFF from house. How DOES it all accumulate?
23. Looked for a new car.
Did you notice a recurring theme? The old green Windstar went for it's last spin around the block back in June and we've been searching for the right deal on a replacement ever since. Three months later and I think we may have it. Not quite what I envisioned myself driving, and certainly NOT what #4 wants to be seen in, let alone learning to drive in, but here it is.....my new wheels....
Now it's back to school, back to work, back to the regular routines.
