But Mostly It's Sunny

Thank heavens I only have the dark days rarely! Whew. I know it can't be helped and all that stuff that I talked about yesterday is still boiling below the surface. But what's important in all this is the fact that I happen to be the eternal optimist. I think no matter what I will remain a glass half-full kind of girl. Everyone needs to allow themselves bad days. We can't always be happy all the time!

I have been experiencing knitting drought though. I just can't seem to get myself into it right now. The knitting itself, I mean. I'm all for reading about it, looking at it and planning all the things that I will eventually knit. But right now, I'm just not into it. Reading has retaken it's number one position of all time favorite hobbies. Of course, the heat might have something to do with it! Who wants to be knitting with wool when it's 95 and humid outside! I'm even having a hard time with the fingering weight yarns for simple socks! AC helps but not much as far as motivation goes. Anyway, the urge will strike again soon, I know it will. In the meantime, I'll bury my nose in my mystery novels and let the world of imagination take me away!

Speaking of books, I just started James Patterson's 1st to Die not realizing that the current TV show Womens Murder Club is based on his novels. That was a kicker! So far I like the book although you can tell a man is behind the 1st person female character. I hope the perspective improves!

I need to go check on my LD. We had a busy morning. We went to the zoo in York and LD, I think, had a lot of fun! I didn't hear him complaining! He was especially fascinated with all the monkeys and the green iguana. Thanks to Go, Diego, Go!

I'm off and running...happy knitting and reading!
