Lucky Girl

Things I am grateful for on this St. Patrick's Day:

1. The two skeins of SWTC Karoke I purchase today
2. Rebecca magazine in German
3. My Bailey's
4. my new LL Bean carry on bag
5. Mountain Dew
6. Soft batch chocolate chip cookies
7. Burt's Bees chapstick, all flavors.

I knitted one more hat this morning before our big trip to T-Town. Barnes and Noble is my happy place. I like to hang out with the knitting and crochet books and the magazine aisle. I did find state maps for NC and SC so that I won't get lost when I visit my parents new digs later this summer. I found this quirky little book on making felt stuffed animals and a book that has dog sweater patterns it--my favorite is the little baseball raglan shirt. daisy would look so cute in that. Super Target is my home improvement friend. They have little picture frame hanging stuff kits that A my coworker and I used to hang up the bulletin boards and big picture frames at my new place. The house looks more put together and A has this uncanny knack for hanging stuff up that is level on the first try with just using a pencil and a measuring tape. I don't have a level yet.

I am saluting my Irish heritage by drinking some of my mint chocolate Bailey's Irish cream that I bought around v-day. It is still fresh. I didn't have any chocy syrup or reddi whip to put in it but it was nice even with just milk mixed in. That was my treat to myself because I just spent over three hours at my parents house helping them move crap out to the garage. Stupid real estate people are coming over to the house tomorrow afternoon.

Erin Go Bragh!!!
