I'm Running on Empty

 Hey everyone!  I am sorry for my totally off schedule post.  It took me almost a full minute to figure out when was the last time I posted and how long it had been.  I was happy to see it had only been 9 days, but that is not great considering I wanted to post 5 days ago....LOL!  


My allergies were in full swing on Sunday and Monday......Lupe and I had a bunch of errands to run on monday and then we saw a movie and went bowling.



On Tuesday I have no clue how I got through the day but my mother's services were beautiful!






We had a fabulous dinner afterwards at my sister's house and I only got pictures of Amira and Lupe playing which was absolutely adorable!!







By the time today got here....I was completely running on empty and sure enough my ring told me that my body is done with me.....LOL!





I finished the Petal of Flowers Shawl but it is not blocked



Darlene and I both started an Ankers Sweater





we both ordred more of the same yarn to make a sweater called Peacock Tee



Lupe had me get this blue and I was weary when I ordered it, but once it got here I was so thankful.....it is beautiful! 


That is really all I have...I hope you all have a fabulous weekend!




Happy Happy Happy Knitting!

Some Great Yarn Acquisitions

 Hi Everyone....I hope you are all doing well.  I cannot believe it is already mid April.  I got some great yarn this past week.


First, I got more yarn for the Petals of Flower Shawl



I also got more yarn to make more Knit Pullovers.





I also got the March Enchanted pages from Chelea Yarns




Speaking of Chelsea Yarns....I odered her advent for 2026 and I ordered one from Ruby and Roses.  I am super excited for Christmas to get here....LOL!


I also divided for Sleeves on Paige's top down pull over.



and started a sweater for me in light pink



and I have continued to work on the Petal of Flowers Shawl



Darlene told me this past weekend that she loves the Ankers sweater I made her last year and she wants to make one by the end of May.  I am going to make one with her......in this color!



Lupe got me a Venus Fly Trap plant and it works!



I made a delicious meal prep last week with beef, rice and brocolli



I also made homemade cheese its.


Lastly, I donated blood for the first time in 2026


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

He is Risen! Happy Easter!

 Hey everyone!  Happy April and Happy Easter!


 I hope you had a fantastic Easter Holiday!  We went to Lupe's Niece's house and had a great time.  I cannot remember the last time I had a cascarone egg cracked on my head.  LOL!  I did not get any pictures, but Emily (Juan's girlfriend) did and she sent them to me.  I also have pics of Amira's Easter that I will put at the end of this post.










Last week, Brent's wife Brittny was in SA so we met her downtown and had some drinks.  It was great seeing her.  You can see that now that I have finished my lime green top, I am wearing it everywhere....LOL!




Paige said she really likes this lime green sweater so I ordered more yarn and started one for her.  I also have some pink yarn coming to make another for me.  This is one of my favorite sweaters to wear!



I ran out of yarn for the Petal of Flowers Shawl...I am waiting on more to be delivered today.



It was a short posting week so that is all I have.  I have yarn coming this week that I will post next week.  Have a great week.

Have a great week!


Here are the pics of Amira's Easter:
