shorty socks

I have been a bit quiet... only because I have been knitting, assessing my students, writing report cards/progress reports, planning a school party for the students that met their behavior goals this year, making sure that the teachers leaving our building get a proper party.... even though I am not on social committee (due to some crazies).... but back to knitting to make myself less crazy.....
Here are my shorty socks.

 

Some time soon I will tell about what led me to making these shorty socks... Blogger is being kind of slow for me....at least currently....

Finished Socks!!

FINISHED SOCKS!!!! 

3 Monday nights

3 Dinners out with my friend Jennifer

LOVE IT!!!

Something to make me smile....

It's a day of argh.... Today, I am already wondering why the heck I am a teacher... or what the heck is wrong with these kids......

So to combat that... during my short break, I am looking at pictures on my computer..... 

Look at these beautiful bowls that we received for wedding gifts last June. Already almost a year!

The large bowl was given to us by our friend Cameo, and the smaller, heart shaped bowl was given to us by our friends Tom, Tammy, Krista and Kayla. I love that they are both hand made and that they look amazing together as much as they look great standing alone.

This is a close up of the sparkly center of the larger bowl.

This plate was given to us by Matt and Beth. They had it made to show off all of the colors that we used in the wedding. Our wedding date 6/27/2009 is even etched in the layers of glass (it is in the blue spot at the bottom left side of the plate). Also, if you attended our wedding you might say... Hey, you had more than just blue and black... I know... my camera has started to turn on me and I couldn't seem to get a good picture of this plate. It is full of color!

Ahh... I feel a bit better now.....
