Adios Amigos

I am off to the playa. I am staying at the Normandie which has mixed reviews.http://www.tripadvisor.com/ShowUserReviews-g147320-d209621-r3430503-Normandie_Hotel-San_Juan_Puerto_Rico.html I am so excited to be with my daughter a whole week. The Boy gets to watch the pugs this week while I am basking in the sun and drinking mojitos....do I feel a bit guilty?
My knitting is packed. Just maybe I will finish the second Blue Seduction sock-?

Spring break

Well, I am all packed clothes wise for Puerto Rico. Now I have to figure out what knitting to bring.

The other clog is too complicated to bring with the double stands/colors and too much concentration that is needed to finish. Besides- I might have messed up the heel and have to wait till I go back to knitting group for help.

The other Blue Seduction sock needs to be finished. I really am not thrilled with this sock and won't ever do this one again. But, so much time and money was invested in first one I will do the next. Maybe they will look better on my feet.

I might bring a Cabin Fever kit for a tank top I bought at Stitches. I worry about packing my Option Needles Set. If I take them as carry on they do look like weapons ;but if they are in suitcase they might get lost.The news reports about lost suitcases scares me. I would not want to lose my precious Options. So I will probably take Denise set but they catch so much at the joints and are so annoying.

I did not go to Weight Watchers again. I know I gained due to my nephew's wedding this last weekend.The entire bag of red licorice did not help either. I weighed myself this am and back on track with no gain. I am worrying about what I will be eating this coming week and hope I do not gain too much. My daughter and I love to eat out and drink a bit. Rum and diet cokes - how many points?

Worrying is a problem for me. I worry about the small things and wish I would not .I worry about things I can't control like if my Dad passes away while I am in Puerto Rico. I worry less now that I am retired. Teaching and the kid's problems would keep me awake. My mother is a major worrier and it is annoying..I worry about being a worrier like her.

good news about Buddy

The vet called and asked if we could bring Buddy in today. She took another sonogram and urine tests. She see no tumor like the other vet and thinks the other vet might have seen a blood mass that has since gone.

I started to cry I was so happy. Buddy is not out of the woods yet but it is not a tumor or cancer. They sent his urine to another lab for testing and he is on more antibiotics. What a scare the other vet gave us. Buddy is a family - in fact I like him better than some of my human family.

Kal Dish Cloth

Buddy update...He is the pug in the middle..

Day 2 April Dish Cloth KAl
Someone mentioned doing 2 or 3 dish cloths are the same time on the KAL so I am trying it out. I get so excited over learning something like this.It makes sense to do 2 or maybe 3 at the same time. This KAL is a simple one to try this out for the first time. I am using Debbie Bliss Pure cotton and it is so soft that these would make good baby wash clothes.

Buddy goes to the vet on Thursday to see what our options are and to do further tests. Since he took the antibiotics for his UTI he is doing much better. The vet called today and said they have to look closer at his tumor and see where it is located exactly in order to determine what they can do.
