Sorry, but I've been

This is not even a whole year of posts Harder than I thought. I think the hardest part is not finding something to write about, but rather just logging in. Seems I get sidetracked. Then there's the stupid sticky keyboard. ARGH! I do like to type ARGH though. Kind of a universal frustration word! Now as to what I did while you were waiting--I knitted. There's a yarn shop in Evansville. And I did order from LOOPS in Tulsa. Martha, River Wools, misses me, I'm sure. Right now I am goin to go check Ravelry for a vertical shaw!!

7 percent

Tonight I heard, on NBC Nightly News that only 93% of women wash their hands after using the bathroom. This compared with 77%, I think, of men! I want to know what the 7% are thinking. Got It! That the sink is more germy than the toilet. Let's clean up those sinks and provide soap! While that's interesting, I can't help but be reminded of the tenth of an inch of snow Herndon, Va. received! Their first measurable snow! Come on! Give me a break!! Who draws those assignments anyway?

otn socks

For all my knitting projects I find I still have socks otn. Weird! Especially since it's my personal toe-up plain pattern. I just let the yarn do the talking. Works for me. I lay those things down and work on something else and still know where I am. I feel proud! I needed that!

RYAN

Cody brought Ryan from Evansville today for his psych appointment in Terre Haute. There are no psychiatrists in Evansville taking new patients. Go figure. Well, come to think of it there are no dentists either. Third largest city in the state is sadly lacking! Cost me to get out of Terre Haute!

Today is Thursday

Maybe if this keyboard weren't so sticky, I'd be back more. Cody said that he could see ketchup in the space bar! Ugh! Not me! However Matt did do a lot of computing when he was here. Ate a lot of fries, too. Hmmm! I wonder if the 2 could be connected. Everybody misses that Cito! I'd give the whole ketchup bottle on the space bar just to have him back. October is coming!!

TWO YEARS OLD

Matt was 2 yesterday! He measured in a little over 36 inches. My boys were all about 34 and 35 inches with Cody being the one a squinch over 35! I do know that squinch is not in the dictionary but it should be! If you double a boy's height onthe day he turns 2 that will tell you how tall he will be as a man! Works, too!

something to do

Seems as if there must always be something to do out here with the kids. Yesterday we walked all over the National Zoo and still didn't see it all. Matt loved the ducks and the ride on the Metro! I missed seeing any hippos. Walking back we/I took elevators whenever possible to get to the Metro. I kept thinking of that Hugh Jackman, Meg Ryan movie where he invents the elevator because building height will out strip our legs one day. Probably an age thing!! Then we went to Golden Corral. Finished the day up with a stop at CVS and were home a little before 10 pm. See I told you! Jerry and Alicia went with us. She's from Peru. Not Indiana! The country! Boy do you look silly!
