the weather appears to have turned!

yesterday was remarkably cooler
a bit nippy even when i took the ducks out
today i was cool even over night
no more hot flashes and night sweats?

could it be?

i potted up some scented geraniums and will be potting up some flowering maples, begonias and a few coleus as well as the older rosemarys to take in for fall
and i am thinking that planting a bit more chard would be nice as well as some fall/winter lettuces

i finished the blue tweed sisik scarf..........now i have to figure some other car/waiting room knitting
i don't know if i want to make a silk cowl or some hats or what next
but i need to get a project started this afternoon

i may need some warm stuff for the winter
and i have yet to replace that one needle for socks
no i can't knit on four needles
i have to have the fifth one or i don't enjoy it and can't maneuver it right

i most likely will cast on a hat out of the malabrigio that susan sent me ( thank you again susan)
and i will make it just plain ribbing and stripped!
i've never knit with the malabrigio, i have some friends who just adore it so i am about to see what all the fuss is about

and purples and orangy yellows........... they ARE my colors so here goes

ok i am i think going to town today
so i will report back either later or most likely tomorrow

and all the duck ponds are clean
crates are clean
ducks are clean but pmsing
and they missed me so very much while bernie took care of them for 5 days

i missed them too
lilli demanded i hold her and cuddle her
and i happily obliged
