Of course, part of that sunshine is hanging out with Miss Magpie! Can you believe she'll be 2 in October and her baby sister will be here by then too!
I've also been working out and eating healthy too! I posted this picture on Instagram (irishgirlieknits there) and my Facebook (are we friends there?) page earlier this month from a friend's wedding I attended- I felt so healthy and confident in so many ways!
The turkey meatballs and grandma's marinara sauce was a hit with everyone in the family this past week! It has already been requested again.
Let's just hope these stupid crutches don't keep me down for too long (ugh! I know, right?! I find out Monday morning the results of my MRI...unfortunately my good knee is hurt now! Dr thinks just general wear and tear....was pretty proud of my CIZEing considering I have basically no cartilage in either knee).
There has been some knitting this month. I finished my Kenmare Lace Hat in Plucky Bello Worsted. This one is for me...so drapey and in a color just for me (Holloway!).
I'll try to get a picture of me wearing it but it has been too hot lately (and taking a selfie while on crutches is more than I can handle!).
This wee baby sweater is almost done. So is my Friday Night Lights Marathon. I love you Tim Riggins. I'm SOOOOO ready for some college football!! Anyone else?!?
Plucktober is just around the corner, so of course it is time for a sale!
Oh, and Summer Wind is 50% off today (Aug. 31) today only, no coupon needed!! Then it'll be part of the Plucky sale!!
How has your August been? I've missed you guys. I promise to be back a bit more consistently in September!
Happy Knitting!

I can't believe August is already gone! I think I'm wandering over toward Verb this afternoon but we'll have to see how things go. I kind of want to go to James & the Giant Cupcake next door but I've no need to go to Verb so I don't want to trek over there (we'll be in Oakland already so it's not like I'm just going over there for fun).....::sigh:: Decisions decisions. I did promise Little Man a cupcake sometime after school today, though. We may just have to make them and call it good. And Little Miss Magpie is going to be 2 already?!
How exciting that Miss Magpie is going to be a big sister! And I'm a little shocked myself that today is the last day of August.... I hope your MRI brings you good news. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you :-)
It is hard to believe that September is tomorrow. You are look so great - inspire of the crutches. Hang in there.
Whoops -that was supposed to be despite crutches. Jane
