Happy Birthday Daryl!!!



Yep its that time of year again. Still here, still together and still going strong (I hope) LOL.
Daryl still is and always will be the rock of my world. When things are collapsing he's there to help me carry the load. When I need to cry he's there with the kleenex box and bes tof all he knows when to duck and cover when I am in full bitch mode.
Happy Birthday Baby!!! Love you today and always :)

When it's love you give
(You'll be my man of good faith.)
then in love you live.
(I'll make a stand. I won't break.)
I'll be the rock you can build on,
be there when you're old,
to have and to hold.

When there's love inside
(I swear I'll always be strong.)
then there's a reason why.
(I'll prove to you we belong.)
I'll be the wall that protects you
from the wind and the rain,
from the hurt and pain.

Let's make it all for one and all for love.
Let the one you hold be the one you want,
the one you need,
'cause when it's all for one it's one for all.
When there's someone that should know
then just let your feelings show
and make it all for one and all for love.

Hat mania


Okay I'm a convert :) I love knitting in the round especially hats LOL.
First one is the grey mohair/shetland with green angora/silk blend.
Next was the grey angora and silk blend one and last but not least is a stunning Maggie's Farm roving hat.
They're a great project to take with me everywhere -wonder how many hats I'll have knit soon. I'm using up all my leftover bits of angora yarns combined with some experiments in wool, silk and mohair.

When this fad wears out I'll think about delving into socks!

Forever Red



Last night I went to my first NHL hockey game. Daryl won tickets from work so we got to see the Ottawa Senators take on the Washington Capitals. Best of all the Sens won the game 4-3 in overtime!!!
AWESOME.
I took my knitting to work on between periods of course.

Tigers and Gators and snakes oh my!!







Daryl's cousin is in town with the Little Rays reptile show so off to visit we went :) Kevin was nice enough to get us passes to come and see the animals including a 4 month old Siberian Tiger named Sherkhan!!! AWESOME!! How many places can you see and touch a gator, a buzzard and more snakes than I am really comfortable with LOL.

Had a followup with the doctors yesterday from the cancer scare this summer. All is good -no signs of any more bad cells. YEAH!!!! Now if only the scar would go away. My son loves it and thinks its "cool". My mother thought I had a tattoo done. Nope Mother nature mom not me -are you kidding like I would voluntarily have more needles!
