No More Grousing and Friday Fillins

Guess what, I pulled out my knitting and he didn’t say a word. I was working on a small project and I am towards the back of the room and I continued to participate and take part in the discussions, so I was able to stay awake and ace yesterday’s test. Let’s hope it works again today and then I will have two little medicine bags completed and the class completed. Pictures tomorrow. . . And for all of my whining and belly aching, this guy has some great stories that he relates to the class. He told us a story about the Pony Express that was pretty cool. The government is not able to accept augmentation of its appropriations, so when a Pony express rider was killed while delivering the mail, locals would pick it up and complete the delivery and they would get paid for it. I am sure it was more interesting the way he told it but you get the picture. :-)



1. It seems like this has been a very long week!

2. Wipe your mouth when you're done, please? (I don’t know where this came from, it was the first thing I thought of)

3. If I thought you __?___ I'd __?___!
4. Knitting is what I think of most when I think of you.

5. To me, Valentine's Day means chocolate.

6. Prayer gives me strength.

7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to nothing, tomorrow my plans include more nothing and Sunday, I want to catch up from all of my nothingness!

Have a great day!

Grousing

Doesn’t grousing sound so much better than whining? Because that’s really what I am doing. This week I have to take a class call “Federal Law Appropriations” and the class is just as interesting as it sounds. I have a hard time sitting still, and the instructor objects to students doing other things while he is talking, so that means no texting, no computer and no knitting. So I wiggle and I eat, neither is a good thing as they both bother my neighbor. I am not sure if I will last the week and if I do, I will have gained 10 pounds. lololol

It started snowing today, and it is very cold. I was sitting outside enjoying the outdoors (we were on a 10 minute break) when it started and I just sat there and enjoyed the scene. So wonderful to look at, but so bad to drive in.

I am knitting though. I started some little purses (medicine bages) for a kid’s camp. This camp caters to children who are suffering from cancer and their sibs. The project is to let the kids know that people care. I want to get three of them done to submit within the next month, the hardest part is going to be finding the charms to put in them. If you are interested in helping go here, I think Shelly is having a hard time gathering participants, so help will be appreciated.
