People, the universe does not have you at it's center! Or your children. While they may be cute to you, they are in my way! Today I went out to do a few errands. I pulled into a parking space and right away a mother with her 2 kids went over to the vehicle right beside me and started to load in. I can live with that. What pissed me off was the fact that the mom stood there and watched her tiny, 3 year old dausghter try to climb into the monster SUV for what felt like forever. And the woman knew I was there. She kept looking over her shoulder at me. Stop looking at me and give the kid a boost, fer cryin' out loud! I do not want to sit in my car forever while your child asserts independence. Do it on your own time!
Then I went into the grocery store. Where a man and his kid and 2 grandparents blocked all 4 rows of grocery carts while they loaded the toddler into the cart. Apparently it takes 3 adults and 40 square feet of space to do that! AAARRRGGGHHHHH!
Onto the bits and bobs....
I bought a ginormous apricot today:
The apricot is on the left, I put a votive candle in the shot for scale and on the right we have a peach, just because I liked it!
So, I knit up a washcloth from the Mason Dixon Knitting book. This is the "ballband washcloth" and boy is it easy! Very little pain, for a very cool result!
In fact, I started a larger version for a kitchen towel!
And that concludes out rant & rave, bits and bobs for today.......
