I keep hearing all this talk about making it easier for banks to lend money to individuals and businesses. Wouldn't it be a hoot if no one took the bait? I mean seriously, if you can't pay for it obviously you don't really need it. I am almost at the point of only having my house left to pay for. Yes, things do come up. For instance, when I sprang a leak in the den ceiling it ruined some of the tiles and I havent replaced them because I cant find a match for the pattern. I will need to replace the entire ceiling with new tiles if they are going to match. I am saving for that project. In the meantime, the dryer has gone on the fritz. I think it may be covered under warranty but I will still have to pay for a service call Im sure. It's going to have to wait. I have a drying rack and it's getting warm outdoors now. I am still sticking to my stock purchasing plan through all of this. I am picking up some really good stocks at great prices that Im sure I will appreciate having ten years from now. I need to get these set up now since I will need to rely on the dividends in retirement.
I'm buying Oneok again tomorrow. OKS

This is my latest complete project. A "Baby Surprise Jacket" made completely without the pattern. It took me a bit of trial and error but it didn't take too long to figure it out. There are only 2 seams across the shoulders. Think about that. I put a notched collar on it and wooden buttons. I just sent this off to my granddaughter Brigid for her birthday on the 17th.

What? I have a life?
Getting on with life is becomming more enjoyable. I have really had some fun getting back into knitting this last month and have almost finished a jacket for my granddaughter started a cowl for her mother and am playing around with some lace stitches. My knitting basket has really grown in size.
Have started looking around for a gym to join again but I really don't want to sign a contract after having been burned. Planet fittness is starting to sound good. I could join the Pit Power Club down the street but its always overcrowded. I suppose I could walk down there and then I wouldnt need a parking space.
I have started taking a new supplement daily with my herbal regieme. Silica, good for hair, nails,
skin, and joints. It boosts collagen production supposedly. I will see how it works. I started it last weekend and I think I may be feeling a difference in my knees. I will give it another week or so and see if I can sit in the floor comfortably again. I am bound and determined to be able to do that. If I have to take up Yoga I will.
