If you've watched the evening news, you've probably heard that here in Florida we are freezing our fruit off. Now, we've had cold days before, but not usually with this intensity or for this long.
It's so bad that trashcans are disappearing in my house. Where have they gone?
Well, the laundry room trash can is here:
It is keeping the pitcher plant's pitchers from getting crushed while the plant winters in the balmy air of the master bath. It's on the back of the tub where it can enjoy the spa-like atmosphere every time someone takes a shower.
The yard-waste trashcan and an empty chlorine pellet container have been re-purposed as:
...protection for the delicate flowers in the pool planting areas.
Lovely, no?
So, what have I been doing while all this cold weather is upon us? Shopping! My
size 3, square double-point needles came in at
She Sells Yarn. Of course, I rarely leave a yarn shop without yarn. This trip was no exception.
These two found their way into the bag along with the needles.
The yarn on the left is Trekking Hand Art sock yarn in the colorway: Sansibar. The yarn on the left is Cascade 220. The Trekking will become --- well, a pair of socks, of course. The Cascade will be a hat for me. Never thought I needed a hat until now.
There has been some more stitching on the church.
And one of the socks -- finished!
I cast on for number 2 this afternoon.
No SSS for me!
