I’ve been busy knitting the past few days and managed to finish the second kitchen hand towel in the set of three. It’s easy to lose track of the pattern if I don’t pay attention and more than once I’ve gotten engrossed in something on TV and had to backtrack and correct my mistake. I usually catch it pretty quickly when I notice that the pattern isn’t right, normally in the row I’m working on.
I started the third towel and will work on that until bedtime. I’ve got Foyle’s War streaming on Acorn via Roku. It’s been awhile since I watched it and we both really enjoy it. I’m watching the “Bad Blood” episode at the moment. There’s a murder and a strange illness in the area that is keeping Foyle busy and an American GI has asked Samantha to marry him.
I’ve been reading in the evenings before I turn out the light and go to sleep and I’m almost half-way through “St. Peter’s Fair.” The Brother Cadfael Chronicles are always entertaining and I never grow tired of re-reading them.
The yard is back under control once again and looks so nice. The guys have been so busy the past couple of weeks and I hope they get some breathing time soon. We’ve had quite a bit of rain and the grass is growing very quickly. When Juan called to tell us they would be out as soon as they could make it he sounded so tired. His crew are such hard workers and do a very good job. We’ve had them clean out the gutters and trim some trees and brush along the fence back when Brad was recovering from shoulder surgery. I’m glad I haven’t mentioned digging new flower beds yet since they are so busy. Fall would be better for that.
I’m caught up on Bongino’s podcast for the week and I always enjoy his Friday show with Joe’s “Iiiits Friiidaaay!” at the beginning of the show and then the ending, “Good DAY sir!” It’s become a ritual that I enjoy very much. And speaking of Friday. Don’t forget…
Have a blessed Friday evening ya’ll.
