Summer

Summer is great, minus the hot weather. I love being home and doing the things I dreamed about all winter long. I finally finished pressure washing and staining the deck furniture. That took 3 days. Right on to the next project, which was painting the office. I had to do that in stages and took most of the week. Plus, I started working my summer job being a nurse at the school's summer program from 12:30-3 on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. I've picked up some shifts at WAVAC as well. I did kind of miss it, but not all the drama. An ambulance corps/fire department is really just as bad as middle school with all of the he said/she said. Aren't we just all there to save lives and help people? I wish people would realize that. On the knitting front, I've finished 3 pairs of socks since I last wrote. I love Jitterbug yarn, and the Nutkin pattern. My shell has stalled out. I lost desire to work on it. I also decided to really not buy any more yarn until Rhinebeck (we'll see how long that lasts.) I rewarded myself for getting through the school year with a big purchas of 5 skeins of lightweight sock yarn from BMFA. Absolutely gorgeous. Last night helping my husband put rustoleum on the trailer was a chore. I pinched my finger real bad and I think it might get infected. I had rustoleum inside the cut and of course you can't get that off unless you use paint thinnner (which I'm NOT using inside of a cut). It hurts so bad. We'll see how that all pans out. My parents are coming today from TN. They are currently driving through Ohio. I hope they don't get here too late. I'm dying to show them all the stuff we've done to this house since they visited 2 years ago. It's been a lot of painting and other things. Well no pics for now. Like I said in my last post, if you want to see pics go to my ravelry page which is cweigand. Take care for now. Hope I can knit with a bum middle finger on my right hand :-(
