Took this photo one day recently while out on my daily walk. I thought it was so cute, colorful and a great way to decorate for a party, whatever the occasion. I liked the display of all the pretty colored whirl-a-gigs and thought it worth a snap shot. We're at the time when most of our flowers have stopped blooming and things need to trimmed, leaving the yard rather bland looking...before it get's super ugly and brown, followed by...the dreaded white stuff. I shan't say the word I so dislike it. I'm thinking about (when the Vertigo is gone and I can get back out to do the yard work...spreading some colorful whirl-a-gigs throughout the flower beds for some color. What think you? Yeah or Neh?
Hubby and I just finished watching this series. All 3 season, and really enjoyed it. HATE the way it ended, and that there will not be a season 4, so much was left up in the air. ARgh. Did you watch? Did you hate the ending? Where you disappointed about no season 4? It seemed season 4 was anticipated when 3 was wrapping up. Thought it was interesting that Kiefer Sutherland was the lead actor and the publisher.
It may not look all that different from the previous post/picture, but it's 3 inches more knitting, which isn't too shabby given it's sock weight yarn. The section completed is without the drop stitches where it's more solid. Will be starting more drop stitches....the open lacy part. How long do you all make your shawls?
Have recently started reading Michelle Obama's book. Started it on a recent vacation. For Christmas I bought the hardback for my daughter who prefers books over e-books, and bought myself the e-book version, which I prefer. I'm not a big reader. She LOVES to read. I find the time others might use for reading, I'm reading or writing blogs or knitting. But, what I've read so far, I've enjoyed. A great deal about her growing up years and the friends and family in her Chicago neighborhood. Have your read it? Did you enjoy it?
Speaking of Walking, you notice I have a badge in my right side bar that shows what trails I'm virtually walking on Walking 4 Fun. It's connected to my Fitbit account and automatically sync's my steps/miles there. Additionally, I have connected my Achievement (CLICK HERE), account to Fitbit where again steps are automatically synced. Achievement is a research sight, you have the option to participate in health type questionnaires/surveys for additionally points. The bottom line is you can make money from your physical activities. The money you make can be donated as well. So there are many options. The app is simple and very straight forward to use. Click above where it says click here to join, and let me know if you do.
