Where has the time gone?

I can't believe the days are going by so quickly.

I sent Chris H. 16 hats that I missed the deadline for Caps for Kids.
Also send some hats for Pine Ridge R.

I am going to work on slippers and mittens for Soaring Eagles this weekend. Among going to the Hadley's 50th anniversary and our 39th anniversary.

Progress this weekend

Finished up my orphan mittens. 6 mittens and three slippers for Soaring Eagles. Still no pictures as I wanted to get them into the mail.

Babysat several hours on Saturday and found I didn't get much done as I wanted. Did watch Sherk III and The Robinsons.

Sunday I watched Send Me No Flowers and Forever Darling. Old movies but really fun to watch. Got a lot of things finished up.

What I am working on

I mailed off 6 mittens for Soaring Eagles. Didn't take pictures (pictures of the sideways mittens are on this blog) but these are the patterns that I am making now:

The above pattern I am using WoolEase and they feel really nice.

I almost have this one down that I only need to check the pattern occasionally

I like the two needle mittens Classic mittens.

I can't decide which one I like best. The Classic mittens are measured in inches where Bevs you count rows. I ended up having to dig through my stuff to find my row counter.

This weekend I need to go through my fabric stash to see if I can piece together a quilt for Humanitarin aid.

Mom isn't doing well. Still in IMC, with all her accidents, surgeries, illness, she said this is the worst experience that she has been through.
