Mr. Canada Post brought in shawl pins this morning.
I already have one in a shawl. Taking only one was very hard.
The rest of the shawl pins in the order are pictured in a blog post I did a few days ago.
My mom called me from Myrtle Beach that two large boxes arrived-they have the yarn bowls. And then more good news from Myrtle. We needed something on the dining room windows in our house. I didn't really want curtains. I really wanted California Shutters. After much debate I won (of course) and the shutters were installed this morning. Dad says they look great!
Here is the progress on Eos.
My Lonely Tree Shawl is very lonely. I look at it but haven't picked it up for days. That is my plan for this afternoon. I need it done for the Knitter's Frolic.
I try to keep my blog upbeat but I need to vent this morning. I woke up early and went to take the garbage out. When I got outside there was glass all over the driveway. Someone had smashed out the drivers windows on both my Edge and Beth's pickup truck. We scrambled to get as much picked up as we could and then the vacuum cleaner came out. Beth had someone from dad's company pick her up and she got my dad's truck. We threw on clothes (I took about 2 seconds with my makeup) and we took the vehicles to Mohawk Ford to have the windows replaced. We might get them back tomorrow. Maybe Saturday. It was really cold on the Linc with no window-of course I forgot to throw on my winter coat. They got $4 out of Beth's truck and maybe $40 in change from mine. What a crappy way to start the day. We have decided that from now on we are going to leave the doors unlocked. Take what you want but don't break the windows!

**Like** all the good stuff.
I hate to say it but it sounds like kids. Grrr. That sucks.
Oh, so sorry to hear of your brush with the underbelly of life.
That is just a low thing to do. Leaves glass everywhere inside too. I take it you don't have away to park inside!
So sorry to hear about the negative part of your day ... no fun indeed.

That is just mean. Why do people do such stupid things?
Oh that's awful! My husband had that happen when he was parked at work overnight. It was cheaper to pay for the window than report it to insurance. Again, nothing of value in the car to be had. Glad it wasn't raining or snowing though!
How awful.....hope you get it sorted soon.
