Footing is getting a little better here, so I hope to skip today (Super windy) and get out tomorrow. I was in DC last week and over the weekend, so no horsing around. Except of the political variety. Off to take the survey with my morning tea.Mary Louhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05588244535423212079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3105432749747104284.post-83671993828750732462017-03-02T04:36:09.943-08:002017-03-02T04:36:09.943-08:00Oh, how I have missed these posts.

They are all quite derogatory, or belittling and silly. Va-jay-jay was terrible. We settled on vulva and penis for our son. Until our neighbor bought a Volvo, and the confusion began!

Who would pay a reasonable wage to a knitter for the time spent on a project - practically no one. I am knitting projects for my friends that is helping me deal with the angst of this election.
