1 week of vacation left

So call me impatient. I saw the repeat on the Mid-August KAL, and after all it's only a cloth! So I finished one, and decided to reverse the colors and make another. Still procrastinating on other projects, I decided to use the same colors to make another gartrlac cloth. All 3 are smaller size than usual.

V sent flowers to thank me for taking care of "stuff" while she has been in Africa. She is somewhere in South Africa right now. Her fight is scheduled to get into Heathrow on Thursday and she is going to try and get an earlier flight to Boston or New York before the one she had planned on the 29th. She might get back in time to go the the Baby Shower on Sunday.

Effie is doing better. Phil bathed and groomed her. She is so much better about all that, especially getting her top knot up. Dropped the car off for the new bumper yesterday. Did take a picture but haven't off loaded it from my phone yet.

The weather here is so much better today. Much less humid. Off to get a mani/pedi and lunch while the house cleaners come in today. I need to find a new hair dresser and soon! At some point this week I need to finalize the menu for the Baby Boy BBQ and do some shopping for that.

Also going to try and pick up tickets tomorrow (not on sale until Sept. 15) for The Second Annual Fall in Knits Benefit Fashion Event for the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation, CT Affiliate Featuring: guest speaker and booksigning by Stephanie Pearl-McPhee, author of Knitting Rules!, At Knit's End and The Yarn Harlot: November 5, 2006 at Granby Memorial High School.
