I finally cast off the blue and brown Stroll socks and put them in to soak with the red Malabrigo socks. They are on the wire blockers and will soon be dry.
I’ve picked up the Monkey socks to finish the cuffs and realized I’ve been knitting one round less than the pattern calls for but it doesn’t really matter and I’m not going to worry about it now. It’s one plain round in stocking stitch.
Brad will pick up our grand-daughter Rachel this morning and run a couple of errands for me on their way out here. She will get to spend most of the day with us before she is due back at the farm for chores. I’m sure we will find something to do to occupy ourselves.
I’ve set out ingredients for my Tuna Casserole for our dinner. The three of us are planning to eat lunch out today for a treat and my first choice is Culver’s. We’ve eaten there once before and they have good food and service. They are located across the parking lot from one of our local CJ’s Coffee Cafe locations. We usually get take-away to eat at home and it would be nice to sit somewhere nice and enjoy a meal out.
We’ve had enough rain lately for the grass to start to green up again. Today we may have some showers like yesterday, but probably not the downpour we had on Sunday. Wednesday and Thursday will most likely bring more storms.
There is still some bare ground showing behind the yuccas but there is more green grass under the trees than there was last week.
