Falling behind but I'm baaaaaack ...


And ready to knit!

We left flowers in trees to come back home ...

to

flowers under our trees ...

crocus ....

Drove up to the National Cemetery for awhile ... and silently
said my goodbyes to Dad.

Had a nice visit with Mom too. She kept us fed and talking.

Want to know something really funny? Or rather odd I should say. Out of all the pictures I tried to get of Mom and those with Mom and I together ... this one here is the LEAST blurry I could get. Mom was blurry in every single one that was taken.
And she gave up drinking YEARS ago mind you. I know, I know it's the picture taker that must of been drinking right? But believe it or not, there was no booze in the house so the two people that each tried taking the pictures for me weren't drinking either. They never left my sight. Honestly. I even put in a newly charged battery in case that was the problem. Still didn't get a good picture of Mom. Not even the ones I took.
But I got nice pictures of the crocheted Granny Afghan that I made for Mom years ago.

Maybe ...
the focus on my camera works only on "fiber" shots do you think?

F = Florida ... and


That's where I'm going for Easter. To see Mom. Two brothers, two sisters, 3 nephews, and 1 niece. [see picture on your right][I love this picture!] Wait ... there's also another niece and a grand-niece, nephew, 2 BIL's & 2 SIL's too. Wait, wait ... 3 aunts & 2 uncles also. All the ones that live in FLORIDA that is. So F = Family too!

Besides ...

I've been looking every day under my trees in the back yarn for theses ...

[note: picture taken in my backyard last year.]

Haven't found a single one yet. Where's Spring? I want to see and FEEL spring. I want to see Flowers ... 'coz F = Flowers too!

Only flowers I've seen so far is on FabricNFiberFanatic's blog and I do believe you took those LAST year, Sara. Even last year I had the pleasure of a Hibiscus blooming right in our dining room before a single crocus came up. But not this year.

[note: picture taken in my dining room last year.]

Look out the window ... there isn't even any leaves on the trees yet.

So I'm looking forward to going to the land of Flowers ...

FLORIDA here I come!

P.S. Leaving on Saturday and will be back on Wednesday night ...

Don't wait up!
