Tolentreasures

My Mother called on Tuesday and informed me that the trunk of her car was full. Could I meet her, she wanted it emptied? My Mother lives 100 miles away. So, after work, I make my half of the trip and meet my parents for supper. An event made so much easier with the time change. I seriously dislike that trip in the dark. And what is pictured above is part of what her trunk was full of. I had to make one little purse, just to use a bit of the fabric. So many projects in that pile... however, I think that she and her friends are enabling the hoarder in me. All these zippers also. I did finish this scarf in the past few days. But, I started this. A baby afghan for a friend's first grandchild. Still working on these. Tomorrow may be the Bigger Than a Volkswagen Project Announcement. And another of these. Orange Camo this time. That's it folks! Lovin' the spring weather! Lovin' the time change! Lovin' not having the fireplace mess! Logan - 37 Robins Grandma Shirle...

Those of you that know me, will be surprised to see bird pictures on my blog. I am not a huge bird lover. They really scare me. Well, to clarify, not outside, just inside. For instance, I can barely stand to be in Lowe's when they are swooping around. Every now and then we get one in the shop. I leave. When it is gone, I come back. But, in the spring, my Mom counts robins. Her theory, when she gets to 100, spring will be here. My kids would always count robins with her in the spring. and now Logan is counting robins. Every day, he calls Grandma Shirley to tell her how many he has. He is beating her. Yesterday's count? Logan - 27 Robins Grandma Shirley - 12 Robins To be fair, Grandma Shirley lives in the city. Logan lives in the country and spends a lot of time looking for robins. I think he is going to win. He is ready. I am ready. I really want to not say these words again, "Quit swinging that golf club in my office!!!"
