Sturgeon Moon

Tonights the full moon and I don't know if any of you got the chance, but this morning at 2 AM my husband woke me up to see the lunar eclipse and it was awesome.

Only a lunatic gets up at the crack of dawn to see a lunar eclipse. So, naturally there we were with our pack of dogs (who were quite disgruntled when they discovered there was no food involved and they went back to bed mumbling something about opposable thumbs being overrated and a bipedal walker Texas Ranger) and then the shadow fell across the moon and the sky lit up like the Mother Night.

Okay so I leave you with Mani, God of the Moon, and tomorrow Moe and Jack.

Seems Like Forever

Since I posted last. Work has been busy, two audits in two weeks and we passed both with flying colors. Eli started kindergarten. He sure looks cute in his uniform.

I am making Jacob a Cavendish for either his birthday which is in September or I will give it to him for Christmas. I hope the colors are "manly" enough for him and if not fuck him.

I also started the Lizard Ridge blanket and I really like the color, but my G-d are my hands killing me. I am definitely putting this on hold for awhile until I figure out how to knit backwards.

And last but not least Eli gets to spend every Monday night now with grandma and grandpa while his mom attends college. So we had family supper and Grandpa made meatloaf and potatoes and look at the damage that boys does to an ear of corn

The scab on his elbows was his first boo boo at Kindergarten and he already got a note from the teacher because he brought a toy to class in his pocket.

The cracker don't fall far from the box.

Have You Ever Googled Yourself?

But not in the Biblical way and came across yourself from the past? I did tonight and I found a book review from 2000.

This book is great. Ms. Tannenbaum successfully takes the reader beyond the archaic mindset that society still holds of that of a "criminal" and exposes the "human being" that exists within. Giving a voice to those that society has deemed not worthy to be heard.

And what worthy voices they are! You really must read this book! It was truly a great experience for me. Serving to remind this reader of that age-old question posed by Hillel, "If I am not for myself, then who will be for me? If I am only for myself, then what am I? If not now, when?"

Who the fuck was that? And more importantly where did she go?

Okay so on to new things. Everybody needs to check out Heathers video. It is quite awesome and you can see it here . Sarah, Heather's sister, did the filming and I have been on ghost hunts with Heather so I can attest for her credibility inasmuch as you can for something that is totally unexplainable. I'm not quite sure that was a word, but you get my drift.

And she has a totally new hairdoo!

And I just want to say it is great to have our knitster sister Laura with us for a few days and I know you all Sophia as much as I do.

Our little chicks are leaving the nests, ladies, but I so look forward to the trails that they each will blaze.
