Party Week

The party is just starting and the guests are beginning to arrive. Gramanita will be here this morning. Of course, I have to work. All day. But that won't keep Hannah and I from meeting her at the airport. And I hear she's been up all night, so she's going to be wanting a good long nap. After she stops to meet Bethany's baby.

I have precious little time to sit and write with my computer on my lap, and hours to sit idle at work without it. (Something not right about that picture...) While my friend sleeps I eat my lunch, read, do crossword puzzles, or crochet. In July, I made a practice blanket, a tiny, one skein, purple afghan, just the right size for my little granddaughter who now uses it to keep warm on blustery days. Now I'm working on an adult sized afghan. The yarn is called "Peacock" and is pretty and soft and might take the rest of my life to complete.

And that is all for now because I need to jump in the shower, wake up Hannah, get ready for work, pack my lunch, and take off with Hannah to drop my vehicle off at work, and meet Gramanita at the airport.

    1. The afghan was a fun little project, one I think I might repeat with other little ones.
      Do you mean where you grew up in Toronto? Yes, she once showed us where her Grampa used to live. She is pretty wonderful.

  2. I will always remember talking to Gramanita on Skype when Bethany stayed with us. She is so delightful. I know we would be friends. You are one busy lady...take care of yourself. Hugs.

    1. Sometimes I really need a mom and so it's very nice to have her here for a few days. Yesterday turned out not quite as busy as I expected and we got a few things done that wouldn't have been had we actually run to the airport early.
      Now I have five days off to have some fun.
