Out of Grey

I went to begin some knitting this morning and realized I’m out of grey. OUT. Of GREY!!! I love grey! When did I use it all up?? Crazy, right?? Well its crazy for me. Everyone else like grey, too, right? Please reassure me that everyone likes grey…

On that note, I’m getting really excited, albeit a little overwhelmed, as I look at my list of gifts I have get to gather for Christmas. So many of them are homemade! And I LOVE that! I hope one day to have a fully homemade/thrifted Christmas in my home 🙂 But that’s down the road. Yes, if you know me at all, you know many of the gifts I make are knitted or crocheted, but that’s not all this year. I’m really excited to see how it all comes together. But, with that said, I’m out of a lot of important materials. Whoops! But my grey didn’t all go missing or anything. I’ve used it already, for good things! So its a win.

Brady has an afternoon of errands planned today, and he’s going to grab me some yarn while he’s at it. A handful of greys, plus some blue, coral, dark green, red, aaaaand a fun mixed up one that I’ve been eyeing for a while and finally have a use for! Eek!

More importantly, Brady is getting the winter tires put on the bus. That the was the true motivation behind the errands today. The yarn was an added bonus. As well as the picking up of a part for our broken vacuum and a piece of hardware to complete our laundry area. Woot!

Also a fun thing about his errands – Brady is taking Rowan on a little date. You may or may not know, but Rowan still naps. Yes, he’s 4.5 years old, and I can assure you he still needs it. Every day that we put him down at nap time, he sleeps. Solly is closer to not needing naps anymore than Rowan is. But we’ve been having some struggles with Ro in the recent months and I’m hoping some special one-on-one time, not napping, will help him feel grown up and responsible, and maybe be a positive thing. Even just for today. If nothing else, he’ll likely sleep well tonight not having had his nap. So there’s that. He was SO excited to go with Brady!

Today has been filled with sound. Dishwasher has gone twice, laundry is going, and there is constant music playing in the background. Wavy dances and dances, with her arms up in the air, spinning and spinning, and stopping for twerk breaks. Not even kidding. The laundry will likely run forever because I still cannot get the chlorine scent out of my laundry. Please, friends. HOW do I get antiseptic smell out of my clothes?!?! I have washed them with baking sod and vinegar, and its not even denting it. And this is my fussy laundry that I cannot afford to just pitch. Please help me!!

Wish me luck on these things, friends. That I manage to make everything I want to make. That my house isn’t in shambles every day for the rest of my life. Lol! All that good stuff! I hope you all have successful productive days, too!
