I've Made Friends With My Lawn Tractor

Today I was supposed to go see a friend's studio, but I was itching like crazy from the medication for my shingles to keep me from being itchy and in pain -- go figure -- I had to cancel.  After two doses of antihistamine and a nice nap I wanted something to do so I thought I would finally go out and make nice with my tractor.  Once I realized that I was in control and not the tractor, we got along just fine.  I mowed for just under 2 hours.  The pictures show just some of what I mowed today.

You can see here how high the grass is -- part of the reason it is taking me so long to get it all done.

I was working on crocheting a basket but the yarn didn't work for the pattern so I took most of it out and now have a round dish cloth.

Back a few post, I said I wondered if this was going to bloom -- well it is.

Show and Tell Monday

I'm either late or early for Show and Tell Monday at Make Mine Pink http://makeminepink.com/, but here is my blog post.

I have some new spring yarn to work with.  First is a cream dinem yarn -- I plan to make a summer scarf.  The other is a coral cotton that I plan to make some dish cloths with.  When the dish cloths and scarf is finished, I will have them for sale on my web site at http://www.makeminepink.com/boutiques/beloved-blackberry-cabin.aspx?page=1

Enjoy this weather!
