I caved

So I finally sucumbed to peer pressure from some of my closest friends and joined Facebook. That site is like crack candy, and I am not even that addicted to it yet. I also added myself to the wait list for Ravelry, because I know that site will be awesome for keeping track of all of my knitting and crochet projects. If all of that wasn't enough, i also joined the Mac/Windows Love Swap on Craftster.

I trimmed the rose bushes in our back yard with no help from my sister whatsoever. She wouldn't even hold the trash bag open for me. I can't wait until she goes out to SC to visit our parents for the week, I am getting tired of her temper tantrum.

The heat wave is here now. The rain stopped and out came the sun in full force. That is why I haven't tacked trimming the mystery bushes on the other side of our driveway. I also think I need like a bigger hedge clipper to whack those over grown things off.

I haven't really crocheted much because my current projects use wool and that is kinda hot to crochet with in 100 degree weather. I have also been a little bookworm lately. I tried reading the new Einstein biography this weekend, but I quit because it was too academic and i have to read enough academic type books for my accounting classes. So I ended up reading Rue Mc Clanahan's autobiography, My First Five Husbands, which was hilarious. I would recommend it for any Golden Girls fan or anyone that is a fan of TV or theater.

Staples has started some of their school supply specials up. I had to go buy pencils for my sister's classes because they had 8 packs of pencils for 1 cent each and there was a limit of three per person. She has a lot of kleptos in her classes (high schoolers) and is constantly running out of them. I also got some of the mini Sharpie highlighters that I love because the ink doesn't bleed on thin paper, they don't smear, and they fit in the tiniest of purses.

I also took a trunkload of stuff that I had been cleaning out of my room for like the last two weeks, so now my bedroom looks a lot better.
