a perfect kid...

... watching a television program tonite and one of the characters said (i paraphrase)... "all those different bits and pieces, put them together and shake them around ... what comes out? a perfect kid... every time..."

and it's true.. no matter what nuances you may or may not love or like ... every kid is the perfect combination of the parts supplied. What happens, happens.. and all along the way there are people somewhere smiling down at them as they try to make their way through the world. Some of them make their way for a very long time... decades, scores, half and sometimes even whole centuries.. some of them only make their way for a little while... but their impact is the same on our hearts... yep... each and every one.. a perfect kid...

i'm back where the weather warns of snow, sleet and freezing rain, instead of a thunder shower and humidity... it's nice to be back in my home... but aaaah was that warmth of the past few days well received... i am almost done with another pair of soldier socks and my next project will be little miss bound i am thinking.. although i do have a pattern for some fair isle socks with a tutorial or two.. i am nervous of (i refuse to say scared of) fair isle, as i know if you knit with a firm hand you will make the dang socks too tight to go over your heel, but i am determined to learn it and become comfortable. wish me luck... LOL

new music tonite - Love and Permanence by Azure Ray - as always thanks youtube for allowing the chance to share the music... although they can be poopy on occasion... lol

have been a bit lax with the quotes lately - will post a really really simple one...

"woman, your willfulness will kill you..."
