Whip the WIPs in 2009 !!! - Row A Day CAL

[jessicagil]

Oh and one of the things on my list to do is reading the Sky thread since you all talk so much.

[jenniferelyse74]

Jessie - I also have a young one who has to cut off his drinking at 6. His accidents are down to about once a week. I have a hard enough time keeping up with the regular laundry.

[jenniferelyse74]

I have done absolutely no crochet in the past week. Nothing, zero, zip. It has been hectic at work and at home.

 

I spent the whole weekend helping a friend move from Houston to Shreveport (about 250 miles). We had to drive to Houston Friday evening, load up a 3 bdr upstairs apt onto a 26 ft truck and drive back on Saturday, then unload the whole thing yesterday. By the time is was all done I had nothing left in me.

 

I am determined to get back into it this week and hopefully get the round ripple finished this week. I am so ready to start something new!

Here is my vertical stripe ghan all done. I quite enjoyed this one and using the random stripe generator made it easy to do the rows.

 

 

Very pretty Wendy! Nicely done and congrats!!!:cheer

Wendy I love your afghan. All those ends to weave in though, yuck! LOL

 

Hey, I'm on time I think. I have 12 daughter squares done and 27 cancer squares. I just got my yarn delivery so I can hopefully get the rest finished.

[ChristiG]

Almost there. I finished two more daughter squares, attached them and attached the third row! I am thinking 5 rows of 4 instead of 4 rows of 4 but am still undecided. Now I'm not sure if I will give it to her or not, she may like a round ripple better! Geesh, so many options. Oh well, someone will get it if not her.

 

I was at AC Moore today and they really have a very nice selection of yarn. Along with the Red Heart on sale they had the One Pound Caron on sale for $6.00! Course I had to get 3 just because. I will use them for the rescue cat beds, maybe. LOL

Ooo, I would have liked that sale, I just got a booklet,"Afghan by the Pound" !

I really like that! Bet you didn't get 'bored' with the 'color you were working with! LOL

Lovely afghan Wendy. Pattern generator?

I didn't crochet yesterday, I was too busy trying to get some rest, didn't sleep the night before so couldn't concentrate. Finally got some sleep and I sit here with crochet hook in hand. I need to look up a link on cooking a rice dish for supper, stuffed cabbage cassorole or stuffed pepper cassorole? Woke up and it sounded good, going to cook the rice in the crock pot while at work if I can find a link for that.Used to have a staff at the home who would make stuffed cabbage cassorole with chopped cabbage hamburger, rice and spagetti sauce, it was real good. I will crochet my rows after that. Have fun guys!

I have done 118 rows now. I have shortened the number of rows I am doing by the way, but I might change my mind. Not an easy thing to do with variagated yarn like I am using so I don't know. Have lots of yarn, Havent started on the second skein yet.decided on this casserole: Green pepper casserole: 1 lb of hamburger (or burger crumbles by a vegetarian company like I am doing)browned, 3 green pepers chopped, 3 cups of rice or 1 package of success rice, cooked. and one 28 jar of spagetti sauce( oz that is). mix it all together cover with sauce and bake for forty five minutes at 350. Stuffed peppers easy style. Found it by google search.

He got caught in a lie at his dads abotu why he has accidents & no accidents since.

Your making me hungry with all that yummy food.

 

Yes I used a pattern generator for the vertical stripe.

Random stripe generator sure put the guesswork out of what color to do next.

[snapdragon928]

Amy! Only a hundred more to go to catch up!

Good job Kendel on getting all your squares done.

Wendy I am curious as to how a pattern generator works and what it works on, never heard of such a thing.

I din't get my stuffed cabbage or peppers. I bought the peppers, and I am giving it a week before I spring the cabbage on them, their not big cabbage or rice eaters. I cooked the rice. Then my husband decided we needed to go to a meeting the night I finally decide to make a dinner. So no time, then we couldn't find the meeting! Then tonight I got to work a second shift- surprise to me! I was sitting at one of the homes and the morning staff said it looks like you might be doing the next shift. It was five minutes after second was to be there. One phone call gave me the news she was at the ER. This was to be her first day back after a short medical leave. So low and behold I got stuck, after talking first into staying a bit longer. So no dinner and no crocheting. Pout. They liked me better this time I got stuck at least I slept the night before so I was in a better mood. no roll call today? Maybe I can sneak by. I want to join back up on the square along, I will look to see how much I need to do to catch up. Please and I am sorry I am so wishy washy.

[slicer]

Honey Sorry things didn't go as planned for you. Hope today turns out better!

 

I managed to make 35 saltines yesterday!! Gotta get them sewn and make a billion more!
