This is one of those winters that seems to be taking it’s sweet ass time!   Some years it just comes & goes but then there’s years like this one where I am going nuts!  Perhaps it is the lovely Indiana weather, this morning it’s spring, by tonight it will be the dead of winter.  Warm-cold, cold-freezing, freezing-warm…  why am I surprised?!  So yes, I have cabin fever & I am itching to get outside.  My creativity level is nil & I would like to blame it on the weather of course!   Here is all I am asking for.. just a little green grass: 

Ok, so maybe my creativity isn’t completely dead… but mostly.  Perhaps the fact that most of my art supplies are scattered amongst separate boxes has something to do with it (beacuse of the move).  Or maybe I’m just in a dry spell.  However, I am learning to knit.  Yes knit of all things.  We are expecting our first baby in August & some sort of motherly instinct in me told me I must learn to knit.  So, I ordered a kit (completely useless), then I bought a book, some needles (of the wrong size), & yarn.  This was Friday.  By Sunday I could now make a scarf, or a square, or anything that only requires doing the same three steps I learned over & over!  Unfortunately the book I bought turned out to be less than helpful but instead some videos on YouTube were priceless!  All I know is that Friday I couldn’t knit & today, well I can make a very nice potholder with TLC.  Do babies like potholders?  It’s a start.
