Happy Mother's Day

 Happy Mother's Day, Dear Blog Readers!

I hope your day was pleasant.  Mine has been...the weather outside is wonderful. I've only been out a bit...but loving it.

This week, I came down with Covid, and still went to work (at home) so no energy to knit afterwards.  Yesterday I managed a little knitting on the 2nd mitten.

 Ruth is making steady progress on her Community Cardi. The color is much prettier in person - very peachy colored. First sleeve almost done!

 Martha finished up the front of her beautiful vest. She is in full end-of-school mode, so not much knitting during the week for her.

 

In other news:

Because of the covid, we did not get together with the kids this weekend. Seems so weird.

Joe spent yesterday digging the front of the house to replace that white pipe you see there.  Luckily he had the help of his little tractor. So I did what any good wife would do to help - I made him brownies!

Its all fixed today and we are talking landscaping! Plants! A tree! Finally!

 I read two books this week.

Back After This by Linda Holmes. A cute contemporary Rom-Com.  I've read her books before and like them.

I re-read November of the Heart by LaVryle Spencer. She is one of my all time favorite romance authors. Mom and I used to devour all of her books. I have quite a few sitting on the bookshelf next to my computer and think of mom when I look at them.  I have decided to reread them and then send them to the thrift store.  At my age, I probably won't read them more than once more anyway. I have read all of her books, more than once.  I think its because of the wonderful character development.

I miss mom today.

Have a great week dear blog readers!
