Once in a golden hour I cast to earth a seed. Up there came a flower, The people said, a weed. To and fro they went Thro' my garden bower, And muttering discontent Cursed me and my flower. Then it grew so tall It wore a crown of light, But thieves from o'er the wall Stole the seed by night. Sow'd it far and wide By every town and tower, Till all the people cried, "Splendid is the flower!" Read my little fable: He that runs may read. Most can raise the flowers now, For all have got the seed. And some are pretty enough, And some are poor indeed; And now again the people Call it but a weed.
Poetic Flower.

Its Just Another Manic Monday........
So it is another Monday.  One of the good things about monday is ABC's Wife Swap.  I swear that is the funniest show on t.v.  I am so addicted to that show and have been threatening my husband to enter our names just to show him that there are way worse wives out there!!  My hubby is slightly annoyed at me because I am somewhat of a neat freak and this show would definitely make him appreciate that I am a clean person because I am sure he would get a slob in the swap. 

I have been crocheting like crazy but no pics the camera is MIA.  My parents have taken it for ransom (actually I just need to drive the 4 blocks and go get it!)
I made a sweater for my 3 month old.  It is bright pink and oh so cute.  I am also making her a bonnet and botties to match, but my damn yarn somehow got entangled in a huge knot and I was too frustrated to try and conquer that mess.  I am about 75% done with my big girl's star afghan.  She is so excited because it is going to match her quilt on her bed.  I am also working on scarves for Christmas and a shawl for myself.  Sometime this week I will have pics.  Seeing as how I still owe Deneen pics of Ray in her hat and Nat in her booties.....

I think I am going to make me a poncho as well for Friday night lights (in Texas that is how we refer to high school football games).  I really think that some of the ponchos out there are so very cute while some are totally butt fugly.  So I am going to troll Rachel's site Crochet Pattern Central for a cute and trendy poncho for those chilly football nights.

I am working on some afghans for my local Project LInus chapter and will hopefully get to attend a meeting this month.  With my baby being sick (she is better now) and stress and just being so damn tired, I haven't had a chance to get to a single meeting.  So I am determined to get some afghans done and get to the meeting to meet all the fabulous ladies of our chapter.

Well I am off to accomplish something other than blogging.
