I turned 50!!!

OK our vacation was great!!! I was able to spend time with my parents and other wonderful family members and catch up with those I seldom see. The trip itself was a fabulous chance to catch up with my daughter and just chat, laugh and cry. Girl stuff. Great times! On the way home (and this can only happen to the Hite women) I was stopped for speeding. I was blessed that I only received a sealt belt citation and it wont hurt my record. Not but about 2 or 3 hours later, Brandy was stopped too....speeding. She got a warning. This is what living a good clean life does for you!!! I recommend it to everyone!
OK so I had my birthday on Nov 17th and I turned 50. I will be getting a tattoo very soon. that is my gift from Brandy. I hope I like it when done...lol Being 50 is no different than 49...good for me!!
Today's pictures are of my daughter at Pretty Place, SC. enjoy!!!

Home from my trip to SC

We are home safe and sound. As soon as I can organize my thoughts and do some laundry, I will be back to tell all. Boy what an adventure!

This is why I cannot type.......

Sometimes I just need my keyboard and these guys get testy!!! Who said this was the spot to nap anyway??? I think these guys are trying to tell me something...LOL!!! Gizmo is on the left and Thing Two is on the right. That is Two in the one kitty photo. Too cute for words!

Monster

OK here is my famous monster. I hope everyone likes him as much as I do. Click on the pictures to see it bigger. Some of them are fuzzy but I had a lot of wind and and unsteady hand!!! I just had to make socks & a scarf since he will be going back to Spokane with my Grandson Alex very soon.



Enjoy and be blessed!!!!

Group project Scarf

This was our 3rd group project with my knitter friends. It is a head scarf made from cotton. We had fun learning this stitch and I am sure it will come in handy again. I love the colors and how it feels after I washed it and ironed it flat. Enjoy!

I am not a daily blogger. I am so involved in so many things, I cannot get to blogging daily as well. I mean to, but fail miserably. Frankly I'd rather be crocheting or knitting or painting or sculpting etc. At this rate I will need to live forever to get it all done. I finished my monster for Alex. I need to get pictures up and when I get my new card reader installed, I will do that. He is so stinking cute. I am working on 3 purses, fingerless gloves for my SIL and gawd knows what! Work work work. Projects are piling up everywhere!
My latest chaos involves 2 very handsome boys. They decided to make this their home and we are caring for them until hopefully my sister adopts them and moves them to San Antonio. They are 2 orange tabby kittens we call Gizmo & Thing Two. Two as I like to call him is gentle and sweet and Gizmo is wound up tighter than a drum! I have the scratch marks to prove it! In these pictures, Gizmo is the one with the flea collar and in the picture of the 2 of them Two is on the bottom of the picture. Two is darker orange than Gizmo but they both have a blonde cast more so than orange right now. They spend a lot of time on my desk asleep and so my keyboard gets pushed aside. I just added pictures so the ones on the top of this blog are newer and Two is in the back with Gizmo in the front. If you get confused just ask me.
Halloween is around the corner & we have purchased the candy and the yard decorations are going in....I hope before the neighborhood judging. The rain has stopped and things look like they are drying out. I am glad because I am tired of the mud!!! It is in my house everywhere and I cannot take another day!!! I need to clean my kitchen and get something made for supper maybe egg & cheese sandwiches. Sounds good to me.
Be well & be blessed!

Long Time No Blog

Yes it has been a while since I last posted anything at all. I have been busy and nursing my bad knees. I have now received Orthovisc injections and am doing better but the PT is the best part. I am in a heated pool exercising and boy that feel great!!! The jury is still out on how well these injections are working. I seem to have had a better time with the Synvisc, but we shall see!
I am currently crocheting a purse and found a huge bag of pearls to sew on it...can't wait to show it off!!! I am knitting a monster and a pair of socks. Not all at once, but you know...when I can I do!!! LOL
The pictures I am trying to upload are of my spider lilies. They are finally established and blooming!!! Made me so happy!!! Please enjoy them as much as I do!!
Be well & be blessed!!
