Yarn, Kids and Horses

Just writings about life as a mom, including my 18 year old daughter who is bipolar; our horses and my love of all things yarn and knitting, especially socks!

I am so bad with blogging. Anything more than writing and I have a hard time figuring out how to do it. I have blog buttons, but no clue how to get them on and link them. I've been spending alot of time on Ravelry. Love, love, love Ravelry. The only thing is, I could spend all day on there and not get any knitting (or anything else) done! I love being able to have all my projects right there to look up, and being able to see how others have done a certain pattern or how a yarn looks, and looking on the destash boards... That is really bad for me. I have tons of sock yarn already, more than 3 totes full just since this past summer when I started knitting socks. Plus totes of other yarn and patterns and so on. And the number of projects in my queue, it's embarrasing, then add in the favorites, I have enough to keep me busy for a very long time.

The kids are doing good. We were all sick and passing it back and forth last month. Can't wait till the weather warms up and stays warm. I just hate the cold. The house is so drafty, with being an old farmhouse. Slooowwly we are getting things fixed up. Lex has been doing alot better. She was a little manic over vacation, but not too bad. I am praying that the bp will stabilize as she grows up.

The pugs are doing good too, have to post new pictures. Horses are anxiously awaiting spring also, I think. Gave loves to lay and snooze in the sun on the days we actually have sun. Even though he's going to be 4, he's still like a baby, a big, laid back one. I hope to get some training with him and be able to ride this year.
