• It's been a bit since I've blogged.  I've been busy, what can I say?  I finished the impossible lace scarf that has taken me three tries to get it "just so".    I finished it a while ago and then frogged the whole thing because too much yarn was left over.  I wanted this to be it for the yarn and get it out of my stash.  I don't need a bunch of walnut sized balls left over from various yarns that don't really go together in any cohesive way.  I added one more pattern repeat and then knit until I felt it was "done".  So two nights ago I did a sewn bind off and tucked in all the ends.  Now I have to block it.  I don't have any blocking wires and after blocking my icarus shawl I swore I would never block lace again without wires.  Now I need to either find someone who will loan me theirs for a bit or break down and buy some for myself.  With the way funds are going for us, I'm hoping to find someone to loan me theirs.

  Madi is off on a sleepover tonight with her best friend.  They are so super excited.  I just hope she is ready to be picked up at 8:30 tomorrow morning for Sunday School! 

  It's all rainy here and making me feel like I need to do some baking or something.  What I really need to do is get working on Gabe's halloween costume and the Halloween monsters.  I'll post pictures as I finish them.  :)

  I have a doula training all next weekend.  I'm pretty excited to just get going with it so I can be officially certified.  The more letters after my name the better. 

  Steve has had some job stuff come up so please just keep praying for our family.
