LEMONY SNICKET

Random Quote from The Slippery Slope:

"Taking one's chances is like taking a bath, because sometimes you end up feeling comfortable and warm, and sometimes there is something terrible lurking around that you cannot see until it is too late and you can do nothing else but scream and cling to a plastic duck."

Right now there is an LAPD helicopter circling our neighborhood overhead. It's been there awhile and it's doing its turns right over our house which means something is happening in the projects. When I was coming home tonight at about 8pm two cops were arresting and handcuffing a guy in a red hoody on the corner of 55th and Long Beach but I don't know that the two events are related.

I'm taking a hiatus of a day or two from the Master Knitting and am making a Pure and Simple baby sweater with hood in bright pink Simply Soft yarn for Aubrey Alford who is due to make an appearance in July. If you don't know who she is, too bad. Just kidding... she is Nate Alford's niece, daughter of Matt and Tara Sky. After that sweater is done, I will be knitting the same pattern in a larger size and in gray for the Maaz's third baby, a boy again this time. All these babies, and everyone with a handknit sweater.
