Happy Valentine's Day!

Hey everyone, how are you?  I know I am early, but I will not be blogging for another week so I do not want to miss saying Happy Valentine's Day!  I hope you know you are are soooooo loved!



I ordered a Valentines Box from Chelsea Yarns....Here it is!




The only knitting I have done is on my Nuvem Squared.  I am determined to get this done this year before I hit the 9 year mark (even though I have older things....LOL). It takes about 3.5 grams for one round and I knit 23.5 grams this past week.  



I also was in the mood for some fancy nails....I found this pic online.....




and I went to the salon.....I love the result!






We also got a new Fridge.....I absolutely love it...it is so much larger.




I went to Paige's this past Friday to make them dinner and hang out with them.  I made Risotto



I did not get a pic, but Kody did......


and Paige sent me this one


The following evening Paige, Kody and Antonio went to the spurs game....no doubt that Antonio did not want to be in pic...LOL!



And Bizzle babysat Amira....I snagged this from her Instagram


Lastly, Lupe got me more flowers like he does every week!


I hope you all have a great week!


Happy Happy Happy Knitting!

New Truck and a New Month!!!!

 Hey Everyone!  How are you?  Can you believe it is already February?  I cannot....but I have great news!  My guy bought a new truck.....I am so proud of him.  This is his first ever purchase from a dealership and it is a beauty! He even let me drive it this past Friday to see Ped.....it was a joy to drive and it is even so somfortable to be a passenger.




Okay....knitting.....I have been wanting to order a "enchanged pages" set from Chelsea Yarns for a while now....so when she posted that she had some extras for January, I jumped on it and I am so thrilled I did.  I have even already ordered February's.





I have been knitting on a very very very old project from..........2017.  There is a blog post here from 2017 when Darlene and I were at the lakehouse and we decided to make double nuvem's.  So that means a nuvem that is like twice as large with 600 grams of yarn instead of 300.  I have had mine on the needles since then and have posted about it several times over the years.  My great friend, Jennifer, even took it one year and finished the first skein of yarn.  So I am officially on my second skein.  Darlene decided to frog hers somewhere along the way and I ended up with both of her skeins of yarn.  


Here we are in 2017 starting them



Anyway, I mentioned to Darlene that I pulled out my Nuvem for some mindless knitting and she mentioned that she wanted to do one too.  So, I have restarted hers and got it to the point where you do not need two needles....I am going to ship it to her today.



Here is mine...I managed to knit about 16 grams on mine this past week.



Lupe bought me some Apple Airpod Max Headphones (because he spoils me) and I ordered him some sour candies......I know I got the better deal here......but he does love his candies.




Well, that is really all I have.....I hope yall have a great week.






Happy Happy Happy Knitting.

 Hey everyone.  How are you?  We are very cold here in San Antonio, and I do get that there are millions of others that are even colder than us....but I am just not used to this cold weather!!  BRRRRR!!



Lupe made us a cuddly fire!



This past Friday Lupe got Lasik Surgery.  He loves his results!






Lupe bought me all grape skittles.....my favorite!




I also ordered some Crumbl cookies this week....they were so yummy!



I finished my sister's dishcloths......



I took them to my parent's house so my sister could get them there and my mom was so upset I had not made her some, so I made her some really quick and took them to her.




My dad gave Lupe this awesome pub coat!



and Lupe got me new flowers...they are gorgeous!





That is all I have.....Have a great week!
