The Best Place In the World

This is the best place in the world. It heals. It’s beautiful. It’s got the best memories. It makes me very home sick. I miss it tremendously. You can hear the waves of that beach by viewing my short little video on flickr. On the top of the picture is a roof of a house. Well its an apartment. Ever since I was a little girl I swore I would live there. I really wish I would have followed through with that. I’m only 31 so maybe one day I will get to live there. However probably I will be too old to deal with the ‘kids’ that may live there.

New Start In A New State

new socks finishedI have no idea how I really feel about living in Arizona yet. It became official today. There is no turning back. There is no where to be in California anymore. There is but no one can really afford to live in Oceanside. I see the beach & get this huge pang of homesickness. This summer I am supposed to take Jeremy to California to see his dad & I am supposed to get to see Davey & Dusty. I want to go to the beach then. I also want to see my cousin. But I doubt what I want will happen. Its how it usually goes. However I did get one thing accomplished here in Arizona so far. I got a pair of socks finished. That is the picture you see in this post. Sadly we also cant keep our phones we got from AT&T. So adios to having an iPhone. Such is life.

Two Finished Blankets

I finished 2 blankets last week. Finally. Bother are supposed to go to nursing homes but my Mom hasn’t found one yet to take them this year.

Harry PotterThis was a swap last year in the Vannas Choice fan club on Ravelry. I finally got it put together. Nothing special. Single crochet around each square then slip stitched the squares together. The border is just a plain sc border. It looked more manly then girly so I wanted to make sure it could go either way.

Mystery AfghanThis was a CAL in Vannas Choice fan Club this year. It is the Hexaghan by the lovely Julie Yeager and you can buy it from Ravelry. I used Red Heart and I Love This Yarn but it was designed to use Vannas Choice yarn.

I would love to make a Mystery CAL – or as its called on Vannas Choice Fan Club Mysteryghan. However with everything going on I doubt I will get to do it in 2012. Maybe 2013 if I make it that far. I need to get the heal of my sock done so i can show off those socks I have been working on since May. I want to get them done before we move to Arizona. I am also working on putting granny squares together with some bright orange yarn. I have no idea why Red Heart has bright orange named pumpkin and the burnt orange color named carrot. It should be the other way around.

Also Hev I am sorry I didn’t get to send you anything. I really wanted to. Maybe next year. But I said that last year too.
