Stuff & such

Just put this picture on there to remind myself that someplace in the world it is cool!


I finished my crocheted jacket/sweater. It doesn't fit me. No surprise. I have already started another in different colors. That one fits Becky (MC) ((middle child)) I wanted to take a picture of it and her but she decided that the dress she was wearing did not look right with the sweater. Summer dress, winter jacket, go figure! I will try to get her to model it today and take some pictures and post them tomorrow.

Oh boy! Am I happy the Olympics are OVER, OVER, OVER! Becky just about wore me out. The first week I tried to go to bed before they all left after they also wore out but I couldn't go to sleep even with ear plugs. I finally got used to them being in my house and was able to go to sleep. Either that or simply exhausted.

I have an arial on the top of my house and that brings in several channels way out here in my desert but MC and OC chose not to have one. OC receives a channel or two and MC has no TV reception, also their choice. The grands are here occasionally on a Sat. to watch cartoons and seldom, very seldom are the children of mine ever here to watch anything else. Only UA ballgames once in a while or every 4 years for the Olympics. I guess I can handle that. When the TV reception converts to digital, I may have company only when I invite them to dinner..........JUST TEASING!!

Wow would I love to be in that cool place right now. Guess I'll just go get in the pool. Do you miss your pool? Probably not a good question on a hot August day, huh.

I don't miss the pool. Even though I have always loved to swim, I found that I didn't get in the pool often. I hated the wet suit after getting out. Skinny dipping was good. Out here where I live, too much wind, too much dust and too much dirt in the pool. Too old, me. No pool, no more, don't miss it.
