Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend! Mine was most excellent!

Saturday morning I Skyped with my dear friends Mandy and Thomas who live in Germany. We had a great time chatting and laughing! I can't wait until they come to Chicago later this year. We're going to have so much fun, especially at Starbucks! : )

Saturday night we celebrated a fellow knitter's retirement from the Chicago Police Department. What a wonderful night of eating, drinking and dancing! We all had a wonderful time! Thanks for driving Ro! I am so jealous of Gladys!!!!

Sunday morning was our usual breakfast out and then I went to Woolly Lamb to knit. As usual, we had a wonderful time together! I finished Auntie Elaine's hat and just need to block it a bit. I hope she likes it! Here are some pics:

(Notice the Lucky Me shamrock Longaberger octagon placemat as the backdrop!)

Good Morning and Happy Valentine's Day! - February 14, 2012

Today is the 31st anniversary of our engagement. Yes, we got engaged on Valentine's Day, 1981! Happy Valentine's Day and Happy Engagement Anniversary to my DH! He stills remembers every year and gives me a Valentine's Day card with Happy Anniverary of our Engagement written in it ! What a guy!

I am very excited because I just orderd my favorite St. Patrick's Day basket and accessories from Longaberger. It's the shamrock design! I LOVE shamrocks! I ordered the basket, hang tag, two octagon placements, a purse (I just don't have enough!) and a square tablecloth. I can't wait to get them! I just needed something to make me happy - sorry Tom : ( Here is a link where I hope you can see the items. https://www.longabergerfactorystore.com/p-10845-shamrock-placemat.aspx


Not a lot of time today, too busy ordering my Shamrock stuff! Have a wonderful Valentine's Day - even if it is a made-up holiday! We all need a little break during this long winter!
