Day 77 of 2024

I broke out my forever scarf tonight. 
I will have some free time soon in which I'd like to insert a knitting project
 that can feel productive while at the same time be relatively mindless. 
I'm trying this out to see if it fits the bill.

Day 76 of 2023

You know I love building things and seeing how things are built. 
I saw this slant-roofed "grill gazebo" and had to see how it was made. 
I took a couple pictures.

Day 75 of 2024

I've been working on some little gifts. 
I'm very happy to be finishing some things ahead of time. 
Does anyone want to guess what these will be used for? 
What is it?

Day 73 of 2024

It looks like my new hydrangeas 
might have made it through their first winter.

Day 71 of 2024

I bought a new-to-me pair of pants over the weekend. 
I got them at a thrift store so the first thing that happens is a good wash. 
That happened today because Monday is laundry day around here. 
The stretch at the waistline is almost nonexistent
 so I will be replacing the elastic. 
Unfortunately, this means tearing out three rows of stitching. 
I started that task today, but then my neck light started to lose power 
and now I have to wait for either my light to charge up or some daylight. 

And since when did pants get so expensive? 
This pair is the same brand and exact style and color 
I had just tried on at the retail store earlier in the day. 
These pants were just over 10% of the retail cost.
