This'n'That

My poncho is seamed and I'm working at attaching the fringe. I've come to the conclusion that I intensely dislike attaching fringe. I've seperate the front and back of Rosemary's Sweater (it's knit in the round from the bottom up until the armholes, then seperated into front and back), and I'm working on the upper back. There's a neat cable and rib detail at the armhole that really dresses it up a notch from your basic sweater.

Remember the ankle tattoo I posted about, like, a month ago? I'm finally going in tomorrow evening. Woohoo!

We ripped the carpet off the front stairs and decided to refinish them. Uh huh. Yeah, we're selling the house and not only do we finally repaint, but Luis decided to get bring back some more of the wood floors too. Makes perfect sense, doesn't it? ROFL Speaking of the house, I spoke with the realtor from last week's showing. He said the people really like the house, but are a couple of weeks away from making any decisions as they had to iron out a few details (sounded like financing stuff to me, but he didn't say that). He also was quite impressed with the house personally. *fingers crossed*

What is it with six? My sweet Abigail is becoming such a KID, and frankly is down right obnoxious sometimes. As for the other two, Isabella has been growing tremendously in her counting skills, and she doing pre-reading stuff like making up stories for books and pretend writing. She showing more interest in how I write her name these days. Vincent isn't really starting to talk yet. He communicates perfectly, but he will only say a few things - dis (this), shoes, door, yeah. He has been the perfectionist baby, not sitting up, crawling or walking until he could do it without error, so I suspect that he'll want to be that way with talking too.

I need to order some more flower essences for Isabella. I hope I can scrape up a wholesale order. Now that I'm not selling the rescue remedy anymore, I have no need to order much, but it kills me to pay retail when I know I can get wholesale. Impatiens and mimulis have helped her so much. I'm thinking of trying some water violet for myself too, along with impatiens for me. Flower essences seem like the most quirky alternative medicine to me, but boy do they ever work!
