First, here's a picture of The Castle. I did work on it yesterday for the Teresa Wentzler SAL. Aren't my rocks pretty? Aren't all the colors pretty when they're scanned and not washed out by the flash from the camera? I'm really enjoying it. Today it's back to Persian.
I'm leaving tomorrow, but since I'll only be gone a couple days, I doubt I'll take any stitching. I'm going to spend eight hours in the car driving up, then the afternoon dealing with the new car. After that, we'll have time for dinner and visiting with the boys' godparents. Thursday, I'm gonna take the boys to the Virginia Marine Science Museum. love all the fish and touch tanks. It's very child friendly. They'll also love the otters. They always like to play. There's also a temporary penguin exhibit, and Darin loves penguins. Then we'll have dinner, and come home. I'm hoping that they'll wear themselves out at the museum, so after dinner, they'll be ready for bed, and sleep the whole way home.
Now for the silly stuff. I've been tagged by Julie. Here are the rules. Five Questions and Five Things.
For the first part, 5 Questions - my dear readers can ask me five questions--either in comments or feel free to email them if you'd prefer. I'll answer them in the blog as soon as I can.
For the second, Five Things About Me. Here are the rules: 1. Get tagged. 2. List five things that have not been revealed on your blog. 3. Tag five others.
I can play the flute, the saxophone (though I've had the most practice on a tenor), and a keyboard. I cannot read piano or sax music though. I'm too used to the high notes of the flute music. I can't really read music below the staff.
When I was a toddler, I bit my tongue off. Eww, right? I fell on the kitchen floor, and bit it almost completely off. My mom then had to drive extremely fast in the snow (the one time it snowed in Georgia when we lived there). After they stitched it back on, my mom took me home. It's good thing the cells in your mouth are some of the fastest to heal, because that night I pulled every last stitch out. I guess that was the first time I frogged. I didn't have to have it restitched though. It had healed enough.
I've been reading adult books since I was in fifth grade. In second grade, I was reading on a eighth grade level. The cause of my love for reading was Disney's Beauty And The Beast. The heroine liked to read, and I wanted to be just like her.
I am the only female member of my family with a thyroid, and will soon be the only one with a gall bladder. My mom is going to have hers out soon. I'm supposed to have mine checked regularly, given that kind of family history.
I like kids video games. I can't play shooter games, or Zelda, or anything else like that. I can kick but at Harry Potter and Spongebob games, though.
I saw this on Abi's blog, and I already know I have no life (signaled by a number of eighty-five), but it looked like fun.
