Someone, anyone, turn down the freakin heat!! My goodness. I would rather be cold. I Love snow, and wearing all my sweaters. I miss my favorite clothes, and I miss wanting to wear clothes. This weather makes me want to don a suit and crawl into the kiddy pool in our backyard.....not a pretty picture! What's so bad you ask? This isn't the worst of it, tomorrow and Sunday are gonna be scorchers.
Alright, I'm done complaining. I do like sun, but I prefer a spring time sun with a breeze. This sun is to much for me and my pale skinned son. My daughter aready has a great tan and can not burn, lucky her. I'm not sure who the genious is who built these houses in our neighborhood, but he left out the AC. I grew up in a much hotter climate with no AC, and that was a crime. But I was a kid, and there are many pictures of me walking around and sleeping nekkid.....that was the life!!
In much more inportant news. I have a crochet project!! Seriously! Here is my new baby
This is the Southwestern Ripple Afghan from the book pictured. I purchased some Sugar'n Cream in nice brown colors with this ghan in mind. I didn't buy enough however, so this might turn into a payday to payday project.
As much as I enjoy crocheting this I just might have jumped off the deep end as far as lengthy projects go. I have a craving to finish things now, and this one is gonna take some time. I think I should have stuck to book marks or something easy for beginners. I do notice (wink wink) that my speed is picking up and I have finished a row before my mind catches up with my fingers. That's a great feeling too! Baby steps. Maybe I'll join the crochet Oympics with ya'll next time. There I go getting ahead of myself again!! LOL
So there you have it. The first WIP. Yay for me!!

I know what you mean about hot weather...its terrible. Luckily the summer has not been so bad here. Some heat but we have had so much rain so our real issue is the humidity. Let me tell you, its been really gross. Luckily today its a perfect day, not to hot and very comfortable.
