Easter 2012, woke up at 6am. I really want to get back to church, but I'm having a hard time moving. I still have to go to the store, and I'll be cleaning house this afternoon.
I hope that everyone remembers the true meaning of today. Jesus rose from the grave, to give us hope for a future beyond our comprehension. Remember what Jesus did for all of us, He loves us even if we ignore Him. I LOVE HIM.
I have been working on my sweater, it's over half done, will probably finish this week. Will post a picture when it's complete.

My next sweater
I started a new sweater for myself. This one is for the warmer months of the year. It can be found and downloaded free at caron.com. It's called the lacy duster. I'm going to make mine a little longer than the pattern calls for. It's being made out of caron simply soft yarn in soft pink. I started this last sunday, and am about 1/2 done with it. I'm excited to get it completely and start wearing it.
When I finish this I have another baby boy outfit to make, it's the same pattern I used for Baby D. This one will be done in mint green. I also have 2 baby girl outfits to make, and the wedding present. I'm going to start the wedding present as soon as I finish the sweater. One of the baby girl outfits maybe the christening dress I started a while back.
My long sweater coat is going to be ripped out and restarted. I found a pattern I want to make. It requires 3 yarns crocheted together. This one will be heavier and I may be able to wear it most of winter. I have to find at least one color that will go with the autumn red I already have. I haven't decided if I will make it with 2 strands of autumn red and one other color, or find 2 more colors. I will update when I get to that project again.
Now for what else I've been up to. Since my last post, I have done most of my spring cleaning, moved furniture around. This weekend I cleaned out a storage bin, and had to move furniture again. I have cleaned house today, just normal weekly cleaning. Working on laundry, some of which is stuff I moved out of the storage bin. I'm going to spend the evening watching tv, crocheting, and listening to my police scanner. I hope everyone has had a blessed week.

My long weekend
This week I took thursday and friday off, which gave me a 4 day weekend. Thursday I sat around with the DH. He got a call from a friend asking him if he wanted to ride out to Washington State with him. Now let me say here, my DH is a disabled truck driver. This was the first time he has been on the road since November. I told him to go, this gave me some alone time to get stuff here done. I got a call for an interview. Set it up for friday morning, just before DH was to leave out. The job is closer to home, but would be approximately 3.25 per hour decrease in pay. I'll continue to car pool for that. I took DH to meet his buddy at noon. When I got home I took a nap, finished supper, and cleaned the bathrooms.
I got DH a bigscreen TV and recliner as gifts for several holidays. He enjoys nascar racing. However our front room is small, and his chair was sitting in the doorway to the bedroom. Our youngest daughter can down late friday night, and stayed the night. We got up early this morning and started cleaning. I cleaned off DH's desk, moved it out. Cleaned off my old desk and moved it to thefront room for DH. Set up his stuff. Moved a file cabnet, and end table. we did not have anything between the chair to sit cups or a lamp on. I also got stuff unplugged thatwe are not using, such as the broken fax machine and land line phone. The freed up another surge protecter. I moved the couch down and the chairs over. With the additional surge protecter DH and I have our own power strip. His recliner has the heat and vibrater in it. I was also able to get my police scanner set back up. We also moved things in the kitchen which gave me more room there.
Tomorrow will be spent going through stuff and putting it away, and finishing the house. I also have to balance the check book, pay bills, and grocery shop. Groceries will be easy this week, as it will be just me and son. Hopefully I'll get some crocheting done tomorrow. I miss my DH, he has been home since November. House is empty with him gone, but I can't get anything done when he is home.
I hope everyone had a blessed weekend.
