Overload, but in a good way!


There is a TON of great TV for the next 4 days! Today alone, starts the first day of March Madness (at roughly 11amCST). Then the bball festivities finish through the evening, as well as a BRAND NEW GREYS ANATOMY, and a new ACE of Cakes. If you haven't seen Ace of Cakes, it is a great show. Our whole family loves it, but we TiV* it for the girls and they watch it later. Friday is more Bball, more bball on Saturday with a NASCAR Busch Race and then even MORE basketball with the NASCAR Nextel Cup race. And you know the best part of all of this?????? Spring Break is only a day away! WOO HOO!
We are doing a basketball pool here at work and I'm in charge of it, so it is an excuse for me to be watching bball in between classes! LOL. On a knitting note, it's been slow here. I'm really working hard to get Nan's mitered squares done quickly. I have to start an emergency project ASAP. Mr. Outdoor's aunt needs a prayer shawl. She has asked for one in fact. Last week she went to the Doctor because she looked pregnant and had pain. She thought she just might have some bad fibroids. Ended up her uterus was full of tumors, her one kidney is completed engulfed in a fast growing tumor and she has another spot on her spine. They were going to do surgery yesterday and when she was on the operating table, she had a heart attack and almost died. Apparently, just a few hours before her surgery she was told that the tumor on her kidney was cancerous as well as most of the tumors in her uterus. She is only 48 and the mother of a 15 yo boy. They live near us. I've had issues with my MIL and her family, but Aunt D and her husband Uncle L have never been anything but kind and sweet to me and my family. So I'm looking for a pretty, but quick prayer shawl pattern. I'd love if it has a little bit of decoration. I have just the yarn. I've looked over at Knitting Pattern Central but nothing tripped my trigger.

Just go with the flow what comes along will be more prayerful than any pattern could be.

Sounds like you have a LOT of tv to watch!

For me all my motorsports are coming into swing. F1 starts this Sunday. I got F1, V8s, Drifting, MotoGP, WSBKS, Nascar...at least my week days arent so busy..Just my weekends! lol

Though it does make for good knitting time.

Warm thoughts to you and your family. I hope you find the pattern that tells you it wants to be the prayer shawl.
