Its all true, the boogie girl is real, and you've found her. She knits, sews, spins, does pottery and writes it all down in this blog.

Gardening and Shoes
But not Gardening shoes or shoes that garden
It was a gorgeous weekend and I spent the whole weekend outside working in the garden. I pulled so many weeds that by late Sunday afternoon I was starting to have halucinations of fashioning a crown of weed roots and singing at the top of my lungs declaring myself "Queen of Weeds". That's when I quit for the day. If I hadn't quit I probably would have done it. My mom took pity on me at one point earlier in the day and helped do a bunch of the weeding or I may have been wearing my crown of weeds all day on Sunday. I should have taken before and after pictures of this garden. Quite a transformation. I'm trying to reclaim it after a couple of years of neglect. I'll quit boring you with gardening stuff, if you want to see more I set up a page for myself. I'm a planning fool and I do this every year, this year I put it on the web to share instead of a notebook. Boogie's Garden
Mandy at Yarnageddon and I have been having a shoe conversation. Well, now we've decided we needed a "show and tell". I'm ready to show what I have and any one else out there reading this, I hope you do the same. I want to see shoes! Want to see mine?
Knitting? I finished the back of Kate and started working on the front. I've decided to do Kate with the sleeves. Maine is either cold enough that I would wear the sweater with sleeves or so hot that I probably won't wear a knitted tank very much. I'm working on a kids sweater, its a gift due in August. Now ask me if I've done anything on the socks that need to be done for this weekend. No. Why would I do that? I also placed an Elann order and since they are so fast I should be working on those socks by midweek. If you haven't been to Elann lately, why don't you spend your Monday morning ignoring work and shopping for yarn.
