Time is Flying!

I must apologize to all of you for the long stretch since the last post.  We are finding that the closer it gets to the end of our stay in Florida, the faster the time passes.  So, I'll try to bring you up to date.  I'll start with the knitting.  Having company slowed down the process considerably, but after listening to the sad story of Becky's inability to get access to the internet from  her new location in the mountains/hills of West Virginia, I told her she could pick a pair of socks from the two pairs I had completed.  So - she chose this pair...

...which left me with only one pair in the pile for the next giveaway.  However, I worked quickly in the interval before the sisters came for their visit and there are now three and a half pairs ready - whew!  I should have another two and a half pairs in a week or so - and I will let everyone know.  I also got back to my lace in the mornings - finished the heart lace and started this one called "Double Rose Leaf".  Even though it looks complicated it is much easier than the heart lace, and is finished now.

I have started a little tiny narrow strip of lace this time, since I only had a small amount of the red crochet cotton left after the lace above.  Whew!

We have been having a good time with these two ladies, we found them at the airport on Friday!

They got off the plane into 82F weather and I think it was a bit of a shock!  We are supposed to have great weather while they are here - I'll let you know!
