Um...

Hi.

So.  I didn't do quite so well in the bloggy department last week.

I finally figured out why.

I'm annoyed that I can't add pictures anymore.  I love adding pictures.  I know I'm not the greatest photographer, but I do love being able to show all 18 of you that I actually do the things I tell you I do.

Like Babette.  She is coming along swimmingly but, unless you are on Ravelry, you can't see that for yourselves.  I am currently about halfway through section 10.  Once that is finished all that is left is to complete the border.  I am surprised at how fast she is getting done and, although I really do hate to sew and I REALLY hate all the 2 round squares, I would totally make her again.  I found a pattern that allows you to add to more sections to give her some extra length and width and I fell in love with that.  What I think I am going to do is, after I finish this one, take a break and work on some other things, then come back to a new Babette in the fall.

I need to get started on my garden (such as it will be) soon.  I am going to put in a couple of pepper plants, a couple of cucumbers, and two or three tomatoes.  I'm glad that I didn't start any sooner, though, because the weather here has turned colder than usual.  I had been wearing sandals to school (to the detriment of my poor foot) but I am back in my tennis shoes as it has gotten much chillier.

School will be over in just a few weeks (13 and a half school days, to be exact) and I still can't believe it.  This is the first year in a long time that I actually wouldn't mind if we went another week or two.  :)

miss raven is doing well.  she is asleep beside me.  she has been very snuggly lately and I love it.  It is almost time for her yearly check-up and she won't be happy with having to go to the doctor.

And now, although I haven't said too much, I must go.  I have a ton of things to grade, an English test to create, and a sleepy puppy to adore.

I promise, promise, promise to be a better blogger!  Thanks for sticking with me!
