July Reading Wrap-up

July was a good reading month for me; I read nine books this month. All of them were good reads, either 4 or 5 stars. I know what type of book I like. I don't mention or rate books that I don't finish. I feel that is unfair. Just because I didn't like it, doesn't make it a bad book.

The books I read were:

I enjoyed each one of these.

A little blue!

Made fresh blueberry muffins today for my oldest. He loves them! 

Knitting Christmas gifts

I started knitting yesterday. This is my first washcloth that I started. I used a size 6 needle and I should have used a size 7. I’ll switch when I finish this one. I just need to decide what to pair it with - a bar of soap, another washcloth, etc..,?

I was at the thrift store the other day and bought this tablecloth for $2. 

As you can see, it not only had 1 tear but 2 tears at opposite ends of the tablecloth. But, I really liked and wanted to save it. I zigzagged it with multicolored thread and I love it. The imperfections stand out, which is what I wanted. I really like how it turned out.

It would look better if I ironed it BUT that is not in the spirit of my home! 

It’s time

This past May was the end to 4 decades of teaching. I left my students in good hands. I will miss them and my teacher life. But, I will enjoy my new life!
