Approaching Glory

Holding Hands

I promised Clarence that when I found a great site I'd let him know.  Consider yourself informed Clarence.  Surf right over and read In His Hands.  Think you'll really like it.  Maria blogs from the UK.  She writes well and is a real thought provoker.

I've been on the phone with the doctor already today.  He's going to call in a prescription for a steroid pack.  While I definitely don't look forward to doing it, given the choice between being on steroids for a week and continuing to itch and have the poison whatever spread - I'll take being a crazy person for a week.  The family has been warned.  The back is doing okay today - slipped out again yesterday.  I'm on orders from headquarters (Hubby) to "take it easy please".  It's SO difficult to do that when there is SO much to do.

I have been vicariously remodeling with Stephanie over at Yarn Harlot.  If my body won't let me do any remodeling right now, at least I can enjoy what other people are accomplishing.

Off to do some homeschooling, knit, take Jbird to violin, and read my Bible. Have a blessed day.

Reading Hosea

I continue to struggle with my back.  I actually drove Jbird to Forsyth and Dahlonega yesterday for his orchestras - a tad over the top.  I never realized how much you use your back while driving. I am trying to make through homeschooling before I take some more Percogesic - cause the little grey cells will definitely plunge down the slippery slope after that.

Got to see my friend again yesterday as well.  I do so enjoy our time together.  Can't say as getting a good chai latte doesn't hurt either - lol!  However, I do believe I see Dairy Queen in my future.  Think peanut buster parfait.  Yup - that would go well with good conversation.

I've decided to read Hosea along with my friend here. I don't know about you but I need a fixed goal soemtimes and this is one of them.  I am so looking forward to doing this.  I love reading Nuwanda's blog.  She's got two of the cutest little ones you ever did see.  And their mommy has a wonderful way with words.  I told her she needs to slurp her blog into a book for the kiddos.  What a treasure that would be.

Have a bid on a great knitting book over at Ebay.  I'll let you know about it - if I win.  I've decided to set the goal of two more socks finished by the end of March and then two more again at the end of April.  Meanwhile - for a little variety I plan on working on the baby sweater that I started who knows when.  Pics will be posted - along with pics of a hanger thingie done in two colors.

Continuing to learn new technical things.  I do so want to try at least one Podcast!
