Is it Fall or Spring?
Today really feels like the beginning of Fall instead of the start of Spring. It is chilly and gray, slightly overcast. I keep forgetting that we are in April. At least the weekends, so far, have been spring-y. Warm, sunny, great weather. Of course with days like today, it’s hard to get into knitting my tank top. There really isn’t much to say that isn’t related to my knitting or crochet. I’ve been posting there more than here. I didn’t want to mix the two sites, because I figured my regular visitors wouldn’t want to read all about knitting. If so, they can visit my knitting blog. But other than knitting, I haven’t really been doing anything else exciting.
I’d like to get an easy to use photo album software that is simple…nothing complex like 4images or Gallery. Something plain. I want to set it up so I can keep a gallery of my finished knitting projects. Any ideas? Hmm, maybe I’ll have to borrow some ideas from http://photojenic.ca Or tweak my current gallery scripts to fit my needs. That’s something else I can start working on. Better do it now while I only have 2 finished projects.
I’ve also been reading, but not as fast as I’d like. Lately the books I’ve been trying to read just haven’t been interesting to me. I think I’ve gone through 3 or 4 books that I just put down or pass on, because I can’t get into them. But I’m reading Nora Roberts right now and it’s pretty good. I’ve got plenty of books to chose from, so hopefully the next one I read will grab me like this current one has.
I’ve been worried about my maple tree. Remember the one we planted last summer? It hasn’t bloomed yet and I was starting to worry that the “bleeding” it did last fall had done it in. But I’m noticing more and more buds and some are actually starting to lighten up, like maybe the green will start showing. That gives me hope that it is just maybe taking it’s sweet time to bloom. All of our other plants are doing fine. But I feel as if the maple is my baby, even though it is about 10 feet tall now. When we planted it, it was just over 6 feet, so I know it’s grown some. I will be jumping up and down and telling the whole world, the minute I see a leaf appear. LOL! Of course I’ll have to post a photo for everyone to see my little baby blooming.
