Slacker

What a slacker, eh? I haven't made an entry in here for a looong time! I think it's mainly cuz I've been so busy!

It's good that I'm typing right now, cuz my fingers keep traveling to the curls on my head and twisting. This way, my hands are occupied with the keyboard instead of my hair! I like having curly hair. It's *so* different than when it was straight. Now that I got the top layer re-permed today, I have to wait 48 hours to wash my hair - and that drives me nutso! I can't wait to wash it on Saturday! Tomorrow morning will be nice, though, cuz I just have to put a little bit of that Redken "Rewind" stuff in it and scrunch. Doesn't get much easier than that!

I left a gas element on on the stove tonight!! We ate dinner, then went to the Riverside Chocolate Factory, and when we got home it smelled funky in the house. Scott immediately went to the kitchen and discovered that I had left one of the burners on low. NOT good! I hate it when I do that!! So right now we have lots of windows open so that the place can air out. I was extremely relieved to see that both kitties were fine! If we had been gone too much longer and they had been in the closed-up house with the gas on, oh my. I can't even think about it. Thank you, God!

I had SUCH a good time on our little trip to Grand Haven last weekend!! It felt so good to just hang out and not have a care in the world. Steph and I laughed and laughed and laughed! Oh my gosh, when we get together it is a LAUGH fest. It doesn't take much to get her started, and I know just what kinds of things to do and say to make her just roll. It is an absolute riot! And her laughter is so contagious that I crack up just watching her laugh at me! LOL!!
On the night that we got there, we were just about to eat dinner and Uncle Terry said, "Why don't we join hands and pray before we eat?" It was him, me, Steph, Kenzie, and Jenny. Since there were five of us with our hands joined, Uncle Terry quietly said, "Pentagon" right before he started praying. Well, I thought he had said, "Penta God", which confused me greatly. I had heard several names for God -- Abba Father, Jehovah Jirah, Dear Lord...... But I had never heard Him referred to as "Penta God". So I looked up at Uncle Terry with a really bewildered look on my face and Steph happened to see me do that and she just about hit the floor, she was laughing so hard! She said my eyes got huge and my mouth was in an "O" shape and I looked hilarious. We laughed about that the whole time we were there. Crazy, I know. But that's us - very crazy.

I'm looking forward to next Thursday evening. That's the next knitting meetup group at Panera. I'm gonna try to have the afghan I'm working on done by then, so not entirely sure what I'll be taking to that meeting to work on - but it won't be difficult to decide on something!
Sherri and Therese did really well yesterday when I was teaching them to crochet. Well, Sherri did well....LOL - Therese just could *not* catch on to crocheting. It was quite amusing! So I thought maybe Therese would catch on to knitting better, and she totally did! Those two are such a riot! Anyway....I hope they continue to practice cuz they would make fun knitting and crocheting buddies!

Well, speaking of that, I think I'm gonna crochet for awhile now. This was a boring entry, but I'll come up with some good ones soon. I will. Really, I will. : )

Wendy,You should put the picture of your curly hair on here, it looks good on you!

Good thing you came home when you did, or your kitties could have been sick, hurt or worse!

Im sure you will find a project to bring to your knitting group. Everything you knit or crochet looks really good! I love the little purse you made for me,it turned out to be just what I had wanted,its the perfect color and size! I use it every Wednesday!
