I am still working on the center panel of my shawl. I haven’t been having as many errors but still once in a while I lose a stitch and it’s making me crazy. The shawl is for me, so I just march on. I have 56 rows to go, and really want to finish this before Monday, but I don’t see how I can.
Today is the day of the parade when the Swallows return to San Juan Capistrano, and a friend who lives there has invited us to go. I am really going because I like bagpipes – I refer to swallows as ‘those damn birds that leave crap all over my windowsills’. No one ever mentions that the swallow also return to Foothill Ranch and build nests above my bedroom windows and that I can’t touch the damn things so my windowsills get full of dust and crap that they drop while they build there mud nests. What is the big deal with a bunch of birds? Don’t they all migrate? When I lived in Indianapolis, it was Canadian Geese leaving so much crap on the ground you could skate through it.
Anyway.
