I know I've been a bad blogger!

And I'm sorry for that! but life just gets in the way sometimes....

Now do you see all that yarn? Well guess where I got it? Ok, I'll tell you. My hubby went to a yard sale and got it for, are you ready for this, $1.50!!!!

The bag of yarn is a kit from Herrschners for a ripple afghan full of Orlon Sayelle Yarn. ( I probably won't do the ripple, I'll find another pattern to do.) There is a skein of Red Heart Plush, 2 skeins of eye lash, 3 skeins of Red Heart worsted weight, and 2 skeins of Lion Brand Chenelle Thick and Quick. Oh what a great hubby for getting this for me!!! Especially since he thinks I already have more yarn than I'll ever use. But I'm having fun trying to prove him wrong.

The next thing to go on my hooks will be a bikini, its not for me, but for a friend. I showed her a pattern I have and she fell in love with it. So she asked me to make her one. And of course I said yes. That will be the first one for me to make. But it will be good exercise, lol, so that when I lose all of my weight I can make me one. As if I would wear one in public. :) Not gonna happen. But I will probably make me a bikini top to wear here at the house when I'm outside working in my yard. Lots of trees along the road so no one would see me when they drive by.

The Sky

This is the view I had yesterday evening coming home from work. The sky looked like this pretty much all day. But it was a pretty site to see.

Now this is what it looked like when I got home and as soon as I got out of the car, I took the pic. We actually thought it was going to at least rain, if not storm, but it never did.

I thought I would share a pic of my ghan. This is where I'm at with it right now. The pic is not very good, so maybe the next pic will be better. And that little black spot on the right is of course, Ozzy. He wasn't to happy with me, because I disturbed him while cat napping. :) Methinks I'll go and crochet some more! Have a great day!

fun day fishing

Look at the whoppers my friend and I caught yesterday!!! Ok we did catch a few that were a little (and I do mean a little) bit bigger. But we had a blast. In all I bet we caught about 30 or more. And yes we were at a pond and not at the river this time. I didn't have my camera with me when we were at the river, but I will next time!

I have even started crocheting on my ghan again. It was a little cool this morning so I dug it out and started crocheting on it. It's big enough to use as a cover while I'm crocheting on it.

Life has been.....

BUSY!!!! Ok where do I start? Last week I had to work a lot of overtime because one of the ladies at work was on vacation and another one was in the hospital. So that left just 3 of us to do all the work at the deli. We were all tired and stressed but we made it through the week. So I really didn't have time to even get on the computer, my email box is sooooo full that it will take a while to get caught up on that. My crocheting has suffered, I'm really behind on that. We have hired a new girl so it should help slow things down a little bit. And I can get back to crocheting. :)
Has any of you ever eaten Jalapeno Cheese Bread? Well I made some yesterday, well I made 12 loaves of it. hehehe And it was sooooo good. We at the deli had to try it out first and then of course I had to buy one so that my guys could try it out at home. They absolutely loved it! I'm fixing to go make a new recipe that I was told about yesterday at work. It is a cornbread based recipe. If it turns out good I'll post the recipe here so that if you would like to try it you can too!
Well when I got home last night my hubby had a suprise for me. :) Yes it was a Dale Earnhardt Jr. purse! Isn't he so sweet?! He then told me that he was going to try and get me a Kasey Kahne purse and possibly a Tony Stewart purse and some more Nascar stuff!
Well gotta go and COOK!

Tragedy at Virginia Tech

My thoughts and prayers go out to all those affected by this horrible tragedy.

Ozzy......

Now isn't that the life?! Yes it is.... OK blogger let me post them finally. So I thought I'd go ahead and share my photos.

A little catching up

I know, I know, it's been a while. But it seems I've had so much going on that I just haven't had time to post. So I'll try to catch up today...

I was so busy at work before Easter, that I was working a lot, and by the time I would get home I was just too tired to get online. Since the holiday is over is has slowed down some.

I didn't get to go see Tony Stewart, :( but there were people that starting camping out the day before at 2 in the afternoon. One of the ladies that work at the car dealership, works out at Curves, I also workout there. And she said he did end up signing more than 500 autographs but he was arrogant and didn't even thank his fans for coming to see him. That was on Friday. Then on Saturday Kenny Wallace was there. He was very friendly and had all the women eating out of his hands. He thanked all of his fans and actually talked to them. I should have tried to gone to see him. But I had to work that day.

My crocheting has suffered. I have got to do a little but not very much. I have probably gotten about 1/3 of my shirt done and I haven't even picked up my afghan in probably over 2 weeks. So I'm really behind on that. And the only pictures that I have taken are of my cat. He was sleeping on the back of the couch with his feet hanging off of the pillow. It was so cute that I couldn't resist taking it! LOL... Well I tried to post it but blogger won't let me. Maybe my next post.
