It's April's Birthday, March 28th and I woke up to SNOW! It's a little late in the year even for the NW. It seems to be sticking at least for now. I am sure it will be gone soon, but it is fun for the moment. Even Annie had a blast, I had a hard time getting her to come inside. Just like a kid.

Weigh In Tuesday
So last week I didn't post how weigh in went. It actually wasn't too bad, however, I am getting very discuraged and decided not to go back to weight watchers for a while. I am still going to try to lose weight its just the healthy thing to do, I just need to do it at home for a while. I will still weigh in on Tuesdays just at home. So now I have to adjust to the fact that I am now dealing with a new scale. So that is my excuse this week! But next week no excusses.
About my sweater I think I need to take out the first sleeve because as I knit my stitch gauge loosened up therefor, my final inches are now differant. Frustrating but fixable. I need to figure out my new gauge and then add on stitches for that gauge.
I had my piano tunned yesterday, the man who tunes it is very talented he is blind and is amazing at what he does. He aged my piano to 1903 due to style, material, and company. He said it had been completly refurbished probably sometime in the 70's. That was exciting.

Sweater Progress
Annie, Brownies and sweater progress
Last week I decided to thaw some of April's brownies that she had made at school and then I left to go make soup at our Soup Kitchen at church. Meanwhile April came home and let Annie out of her kennel and went to go change clothes, not knowing I had brownies on the counter, which by the way were WAY back on the counter, so I thought they were safe. I have a English Springer, not a Wolfhound! So April came out to find an empty plate with brownie crumbs and a guilty looking Annie. She couldn't get a hold of me , my phone won't ring in the basment at church or Pat, so she call the vet and made an appointment, then called Casey, he can always calm her down, she finally got me and I came home, the Dr. said to watch her but she probably didn't get enough to hurt her, she has seemed fine so it was just a scare. I still can't figure out how she reached her paw all that way to grap the plate and pull it forward.
