A Quiet Sunday Afternoon

Joe and I both felt like Zombies when we got home around 7:45 PM. My first thought is that it probably speaks for our age. Then I think about the day we both put in and decided we should be dead tired!

After closing the shop, We had a special dinner with Wade and Christa along with the grandchildren - Hannah (she turns 13 next week), Aiden, Audrey and Halaina! It was a most enjoyable dinner. Happy Birthday to Hannah who enters the world of teens!

Our Sunday is moving along like a lazy river. We are watching the Astros via subscription MLB.COM since we cannot get Comcast cable service at our home. We do have it at the shop but we can't live there.

I'm going to make a run and pick up something for lunch since we didn't stop at the grocery on the way home last night. Fridge is empty. I will be doing the grocery shopping tomorrow. Joe has requested crawfish sauce piquant over grill catfish for dinner. He has peeled crawfish every afternoon this past week!

I worked on a tiny little sock this morning but I must work on a pair cabled handwarmer hoping to have them plus a single handwarmer ready to mail out on Tuesday.

This pair of socks were mailed to new grandson, Jacob, last week. After washing, they became super soft!

Working on this one this morning - pattern sized specifically for Jacob is in my head now and I find knitting them relaxing and fairly quick. I can knit 1 in a couple of hours. Keep in mind, they are very small! (CO is 40 sts, 2 inches of ribbing, 16 rows of heel flap, foot is 3.5 inches before closing toe - for all the socknitters)

I will post pics of Jacob's socks before they go to him! He is doing very well and is at home.

A sneak peek- Jacob sleeping in his sleep sack knit in Araucania's Huasco. His Mom says he loves it!
