Still Here...

...but not much, if any, knitting getting done. Sounds like the same old story. I think it's the heat. Summer temps hit hard and it takes me a week or so to get acclimated to them.
School's out in three days...wow! What happened to this year! Seems like just yesterday it was the first day of school! (I know, I'm getting old and the days are flying by!)
Still running around with the baseball/softball, but those seasons are winding down. It gets too hot to play here in June/July. Every thing's a little backward out here in the desert!
I did buy some yarn, Elsebeth Lavold Hempathy in red for the frock camisole. I'd always liked this pattern and I love this yarn! Seems like a good, quick knit for summer.

Happy Monday

Happy Mother's Day to all out there!
Update:
Got the air conditioner in and, thank goodness, running on Thursday! We're going to need it this week! Summer temps are hitting us hot this week!
Got some knitting done, too. Working on the front of the skirt, and got into the next portion of the pattern. The skirt has three different sections of a pattern: the bottom is a lace/stst then it has a basket weave-type section, and the top is a very open-work lace. So...I may be wearing this skirt by July (that's my goal).

Still Here (and happy May)!

Ella.

I think she's looking at birds (or our evil squirrel) in the backyard.



Yes, I'm still here. It's been a weird/hectic last few weeks around the cactus household. Our air conditioner unit broke about a month ago (which was fine, it wasn't too hot), and the guys have been in and out of the house for the past few days (driving Ella crazy). But today the weather people are calling for temps in the low 100's today and I really, really need my air conditioner! They're telling me today (let's hope and pray) it will be done!

Let's see...what else...oh, yeah. Baseball's going strong for the Munchkin. Games three times a week with practices thrown in hither nither, you know the drill if you've been there! And then the LittleOne with softball, again games two times a week with practice. Running, running, running...

And then out here, school is out in, oh, let me count the days on the calendar....in about 11 days (not including the weekend)! Holy Crap! Another school year has come and gone! I'm not ready for the summer yet!

But...I did finish the first sleeve of my whisper(rav link) cardi and I did work, oh, about four rows on my skirt the other(rav link) day! Progress people!
