Self Portrait Sunday 6/15/2008

June15

The vacation apparently continues. My modem went out on Wednesday, and my internet provider “shipped out a new one overnight” that evening. Still haven’t seen that sucker as I type this Saturday morning. However, I have a new cable provider as of Friday, along with cable TV.

However, now it is time to camp! Here’s a photo I took a few days ago, modeling a sweater I am knitting.

Hmm, it occurs to me that most of what you see here are my outstanding features. Oops. I had forgotten about that.

Saturday evening update:
Here is one my daughter took yesterday while we were eating smores.

My husband had just handed me a hot marshmallow, when the baby spilled ice cold drink in my lap. There wasn’t much I could do about either one, since my other hand was holding the bug spray. They enjoyed laughing at me while my leg twitched, though.

    We’ve been trying to do smores ourself while my friend’s been visiting but it keeps raining on the firewood :( I hope you got dried off pretty quickly.

    Love the sweater. I can only knit things that are rectangles, so I’m very impressed.

    I like it! Is that going to have a cowl neck when it’s finished? I prefer the second portrait, though. I’m just not much of a boob person, ya know?

    We have somthing in common today.

I'm Cass. I am a full-time mom to eight great children, a Christian and a blogger. I'm also a knitter, a reader and a movie watcher. And a collector of eclectic oddities.

For the first time in 18 and a half years, I have my own little corner again. Somewhere along the way, I seem to have lost myself, and now that I realize I'm missing, I'm on the look out for me. You maybe don't know what that means, but then again, maybe you do. Regardless, this is where I'll be when I'm not being a mother or a knitter. This is where I'll be just me. And if no one ever reads it, that's ok. I'll know it's here.
