    Default Whole lot a froggin' goin' on

    I have been trying to start a new afghan as a teacher gift for DD#1. I have started and ripped, started and ripped until I am sick of the yarn! Ugh. I think I have finally got it going now, but what a waste of a day...


    rippit! Rippit! rippit!

    LOL! TOo funny!

    The pattern I am using is off of the Bernat website. It is easy, but the yarn is boucle and it is hard to count stitches. Anyway, the pattern seems to be working this time.

    Alas, I have been throwing way too much other stuff in the past couple of days (menopause stinks) - and one of them was my bottle of blood pressure medicine - which I can't find now.
