Although we did not get the storms that they did in the northeast yesterday, we had the wind.  Naturally, the children wanted to play outside.  So we bundled up and played out in the "fresh" wind.  I tried to knit but the turquoise thread was just determined to snarl up.  I spent hours untangling thread and speed knitting to try to knit in the thread that wasn't tangled.

For those of you interested in felting, here is a link sort of describing it.  I'm sort of running out of time so I couldn't find a better one.

And here is the bag last night:

I'm sorry.  It's just the whole shooting thing again.  What's up with our society anyway?  Of course, you never know when it's going to be your time to go but when I kiss my husband goodbye in the morning, I don't expect him to be killed at his university.

Does anyone else look for escape routes and plan for emergencies like the one that happened at VA Tech yesterday?  I do.  I think it's sick that I have to prepare to do something to help my children in such a situation.  Such a sad, selfish waste of life.

Bleah.
