Raindrops keep falling on my head...



because I am silly enough to be outside taking pictures. :-) It IS refreshing though. Almost like a mist.

I am, again, enjoying the solitude that rides in on the backs of raindrops. I have started to crochet a sweater, my first ever. We'll see how it goes. I found the pattern free but think it would be SUPER cute with a coordinated bonnet/hat, so, not ONLY will I be making a sweater for the first time ever, but, if all goes well, I will be designing my own pattern for the first time ever. I will certainly share the results, when I get them. Hopefully, they will be good.

In other news:

I am VERY proud to announce a great accomplishment that has taken place here!

Drumroll please.....

I have CLEANED OUT THE FRIDGE!!!

Dear me, it has been TOO long since I did that last. Really-scary stuff in there. But now it is neat and tidy. There is surprisingly more room in there too! ;-) I can see right into the crisper drawers and each time I view those neat little carrots in the dish (instead of the ugly bag) it makes me happy. I put paper towels on the bottom of the drawers, with hopes that they will 'catch' falls and help me to keep things CLEANER from now on. I hope that it will be so.

Other tasks these days include laundry and packing. We are headed 'back home' this weekend, to visit with family and so that I might FINALLY fulfill my promise to Corynn (and myself!) that SOMETIME this summer, we SHALL be visiting a zoo. Oh, she would LOVE it so! And the Panda too. I look forward with each anticipation. We are about due for an extraordinary adventure. It has been too long!

And now, I am off. But don't forget...

Tomorrow is the B.I.G day. A secret sharing day! Are you excited?

I am!

  3. Purely Hypothetically answering your question, mind you, since you asked. I am not sure however the vibrant colors sound extra exciting. I believe that with her dark hair and blue eyes something with teal in it would look extra special but honestly, I don't really know quite yet because she has a limited amt of clothing in vibrant colors thus far. Hope this helps, just a little.

  4. "What's the SECRET?!?!"
    I ask this most patiently.

    If you've a second or more to kill and you feel the need to drop in on a messy house, do so, or we could try to sneak you into the zoo! I know that spare seconds are nearly impossible to find in whirlwind homeward visits, though-- thank goodness those days are presently over for us-- but I extend the offer anyway.

    Hope you have a wonderful weekend, and we'll absorb the Newman aura wafting through the air! :)
