Pining For Spring

TGIF folks!  In the spirit of great weather, Friday and the weekend ahead I took Rocket to the lake this morning.  He’s been depressed with DRD traveling the past two days and I knew he’d be happy there. The sunrise looked promising from my house but alas there was nothing to be seen down there, just this little old pine tree.  Have a great weekend and enjoy the March Madness if it’s your thing!

One Word Wednesday

Possibility.

Ten on Tuesday

It's music to my ears!

This week we’re listing 10 songs that put you in a good mood.  This is hard.  I like so much music.  As my Dad always said when I exclaimed - that’s my favorite song!! – every song is your favorite song Patty.  So here we’ve got 10 songs, in no particular order, that make me happy.

1.    Eagles – Peaceful Easy Feeling

2.    Five Stair Steps – O-o-h Child

3.    Queen – You’re my Best Friend

4.    Elton John – Tiny Dancer

5.    Beatles version -  Twist and Shout

6.    Fleetwood Mac – I Don’t Want to Know

7.    Dixie Chicks version – Landslide (I’m sorry if any of you find that hard to accept!)

8.    Peter Paul and Mary – Leaving on a Jet Plane (I challenge you not to sing along!)

9.    John Denver – Rocky Mountain High

10.  Kenny Chesney – Out Last Night

Shimmer

At last!  Knitting. 

The pattern is Sugared Violets and the yarn Ball and Skein Glissade.  Raveled here.

I am thrilled with this project and with the yarn. 

The drape of the fabric is perfect and the little bit of shimmer classes it up just a bit.

A perfect spring accessory!

Snow Day

It came in like a lion...

 On the birthday of a lamb...

Happy 85th Birthday to my Dad.
