MIA...and all that

So I've been a bit out of it for a while. Our lovely holiday down east did derail our homeschooling for longer than I care to admit, though we were almost back on track until "blam"...Christmas came. So now we're at the end of January and it's time for another holiday. This time just a week or so jaunt to the mountains to regroup after the other holidays. So, as gardening is only in the mind at this time, I have turned my interests to knitting. You really outta' check out my profile on Ravelry and all the beautiful free patterns available on line. So you don't know how to knit? No problem, I'll teach you. I've already taught two people...I'm a pro at this now. Not quite, but I do enjoy sharing my enthusiasm. If I can't play with color in flowers, then I'll play with it in yarn. Now, off I go to add a collar onto my lace shawl...:)

I'm in denial...

Well, I really don't know where the summer has gone! I know I say that every year, but this summer went by super fast! I think Oma's death, Lorraine's wedding, a family reunion and VBS all contributed to a lightening speed summer! Well, I haven't felt much like gardening. I did can some bean salad today, and I froze some black currants, but I'm afraid the peas were a right off and the radishes bloomed beautifully. I really need to walk through with my map and make the necessary comments for each plant and variety. Oh well!

School has started, and as a homeschooling family that means a big change. However, things are off to a great start, and I hope that our 2 week vacation down east won't completely derail us!
