More past pics

Today has been a weird energy day. I've been having those tired days (too much work, not enough play), but today has been strange, really exhausted. So I'm on my way out the door on my way home. I'm looking forward to watching the second part of the Masterpiece Theater movie I rented, Shooting the Past. I've really enjoyed it as it's not similar to other Masterpiece episodes (it's not a period piece or a mystery), but it is set in the same locations - a grand old castle estate. It reminds me of an independent BBC film, kindof. I'm right at the point where they are trying to figure out how to keep the enormous collection of photos (thousands, if not millions), as the developers move in, wanting to just destroy them all as that makes the most financial sense (time is money). Anyways, something to look forward to watching tonight while relaxing.



On the bus this morning I realized I never knit a sweater for my friend Jill's baby out in Seatle. Or really, I couldn't remember if I had. And considering her name is Rowan (my favorite brand of yarn and patterns), she has to have a sweater. So to be on the safe side and since I love the pattern and need a break from my current project (and for some reason have been itching to knit baby clothes, hmmm...), I might start the Pea Pod sweater tonight, but for a larger size (think the baby was born last october) . Although, writing this I realize I should use some of my Rowan yarn (except it's itchy) and knit her a Rowan patterned sweater (except I don't have any for babies). Maybe when she's older.



To wrap this up, I thought I'd include a picture that my mom sent today of my brother and I with our cousin, Tyler, taken back during his graduation (I think, actually, it might have been before than on a previous visit - this is why I keep a blog, to keep track of things as my brain is just not on top of these things!) Remember those days when you used to ride on people's shoulders. This picture reminds me of those good old days when it was nice and pleasant and cool.



P.S. I figured out what to do for pictures until I figure out my phone - I have a plan, but will share it with you later.
