Well better late then never.  I was hoping to blog every Monday, today is Tuesday. 
I am still following Grok.  But I am not seeing any results.  bummer.  So maybe I will follow Grok's eating a bit less and workout more.
I went out to brunch with my daughter and a family friend and her son. It felt really nice to go out and just enjoy the company of friends.
Husband: sent me a beautiful bouquet of roses and a heart warming card for our 25th wedding anniversary. He is due home the end of this week, Yay
Daughters: One is back at school and the other is partying and hanging out with friends.
Savings: still enjoying our blockbuster special.  I wanted a smaller wallet then the one I use everyday, for traveling.  I found one i really like from Harvey's seatbelt bags.  It cost $17.00 a bit of tax and free shipping. So for under $19.00 I am getting a wallet that will out last me...I also ordered a free sample of peanut butter to go. 
Needles/Hooks/Crafts: I finished the baby hat and knit a pair of Mary Jane booties to match.  My first booties.  I have enough yarn left to make a set of mittens. So I will cast on those soon.    We have 280 friendship bracelets made so only 20 left.  Made some progress on my friends son's blanket.  Very little progress made on the simple scarf. I pick up the lace scarf I have been having trouble with.  I need to finish that scarf by Christmas. Seems reasonable.  I am having such a hard time with it.  We made 2 cards. One for father's day and one sympathy.
Sewing: Week before last I was having trouble with my bobbin tension.  I resolved that issue and was able to sew the blanket binding on to two of the blankets.  We are making quilts and blankets for Children's Hospital or Ronald McDonald House.
General: Well I finished listening to Fahrenheit 451.  So now on to a fiction CD after that back to another classic... Still listening to pod casts especially on the road and at the gym...
