Busy

Oh boy! I have been busy the last week or so. All the activity has but me completely out of whack. I am used to a slower pace of life and I have just recovered. So what have I been doing?

* I finished the March socks, but I haven't been able to take some photos because of the camera issues I was having. The new batteries have been purchased, but now I can't find the socks to take some shots of them.

* I have had my cousin and her partner and three children visit for the last few days. That makes four adults and five children - four of whom are under four - in my little house, and when you add my Dad who stayed for a night, that makes for a lot of noise and a lot of stuff.

* We visited the zoo. I love that place. In the two years I have lived here I have been about six or seven times, and I never grow tired of it. I always see something that I missed last time. This time I actually got to see the tiger and the lions pacing around their enclosures. Every other time I have been there they have all been asleep. My personal favourite is the Meerkats.

* The Boy has started walking. He is pretty unsteady still, but is very determined and is now walking across the room unaided. He still prefers to crawl, mostly because it is faster I think, but he is getting there.

* I have started April socks and I am having a ball. I am using some Patonyle that I dyed with food colouring a little while ago. They are really pretty and I am really proud of the yarn. I need to finish three more repeats of the pattern and then I can start decreasing for the toe.

* Our chocolate Lab, Jack is at the vet at the moment. He has been there since Saturday. He had surgery on his ear on Sunday and we should be able to pick him up today. This will be his third surgery and his fourth general anesthetic and he is just six years old. Poor puppy.

Wow that is a lot, I think I will go and lie down now.

Oh, and tomorrow Soldier will be the same age as me!!
