Rich and I went with my parents to the Alabama Society of Traditional Bowmen this past Saturday. My mom got her new bow. It's really nice and shoots really well. Rich shot really well for his first time. Bonus: No one lost any arrows either. Those things can be pricey. The only downside was it was SO HOT. I was super grouchy by 4 in the afternoon. We stopped in T-town and had dinner at Wings (yummy, but I really wanted some Olive Garden...maybe next time). By the time we got home, we all showered and crashed for the evening.
I've just about finished my first baby booty for Paul and Becca's son. I'll take pictures once it's all finished and post them. I've had a good bit of trouble with this first one. I may knit a third one to replace this first one, if I don't like how it turns out. I'm going to Yarns Downtown (hey, hey...guess who figured out how to put links within the blog now) this Saturday to pick my next project and buy my supplies. I kind of want to attempt a purse or a sweater or there's also this really cute skirt in one of the pattern books my mom has. I just haven't decided yet, but I'll keep you posted.
I've added a couple of tickers to the blog. The first one is for our anniversary (just for sentimental reasons really and I really do believe that every year a couple remains married is a real accomplishment). The second one is to keep me accountable about my weight loss or gain whichever seems to be the ongoing trend at that moment. My eating has been exceptionally bad since the cruise last March and this weather is not motivating me to work out. I want to be a healthy mom when Rich and I decide it's time to have children and I'm really just tired of carrying all this extra weight around. I wish I could get Rich motivated, because if I had him trying to do this with me, I think it would be a lot easier. His suggestions of hamburgers and chicken wings for dinner are less than helpful.
Well, that's about all I have to talk about now. Later.
