Well, I got caught out today. I was expecting the rain to start around 6:00 PM because that's what the forecast called for all day yesterday, and even this morning when I checked it. That storm must have seriously sped up or something because it started around noonish. No matter. I still went by the bank and paid my house note -- which in all the hubbub over my checking account last month, I'd almost forgotten to do -- then, after some mental debate went on to Walmart and got my weekly shopping done.
While I was there, I went ahead and bought another one of those black shelves like I have in what will eventually become my craft room. I'm going to put this one out into the shed also, and start getting that mess better organized. A lot of what's out there is junk that needs to be tossed, and the rest needs to be stacked up neatly. I'll let you know how that goes.
In a bit of bad news, the shortening on the shepherd's hook trick didn't work. I guess the next step will be trying a baffle. I've already ordered one, and it's supposed to get here tomorrow, so if it stops raining long enough, I'll get it put onto the pole. Then we'll see...
In better news, the new hat is coming along right nicely.
The name of this colorway is Horn Section, but I've been calling it Starry Night -- for obvious reasons. I'm thinking if the body of the hat looks like the brim, I might just have to keep this one for myself.
In fact, since there's not much else going on, I think I'll put in It's The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown and knit on it a bit more, but not before I leave you with my traditional Halloween prayer:
Good night and Happy Halloween, everybody.
