Knitting

So, while we were up at the Lakes last week I practiced my knitting. I even learned to purl. I'm getting much better and Elaine Cleghorn said I can move from my kindergarten needles to 4th grade needles. Right now my knitting project is supposed to be a dish wash cloth, but because of the size of my needles it is now going to be a car wash cloth. My car will be sparkly clean when I get to use it. Once I get started with the smaller needles, I will make my own dish wash cloth!!

Fray Check

I bought my fray check this morning. Now I won't have to borrow Grandma Cleghorn's. Once I finish each set of napkins I'm making, to make sure the corners don't come unravelled I will need to apply to fray check to each corner. Check that one off my list!!

Bonnie & Clyde and Goodfellows

I've started watching the AFI list I picked. Wow there are a lot of movies on that list. 100 to be exact. We have started in the Ganster category, but will probably skip around. We have started (when we can) Sunday movie night!! We watched Bonnie & Clyde and Goodfellows. Man, they are some bloody movies. I didn't like the ending of Bonnie & Clyde, they should have died in the big shootout, but it went on after that and kinda dragged on. I did like Goodfellows, but like a typical ganster movie, it was a little bloody for my liking. I will keep you updated on the next movies I will be watching. My girlfriends and I might start watching some of the romantic comedies to knock some of them off the list.

Trying out my new wakeboard

So we went up to the lake last week for our annual trip with the Cleghorns!! I got to finally use my new wakeboard. I was able to get up right away and by the end of the week I was jumping in and out of the wake. Something I have never been very comfortable doing. It is amazing how light my board was. I learned to wakeboard on a guy's board and they have always been so heavy. What a fun thing to check off my list!!
