Mysteries of the Universe

Do ever wonder about things. Like where does that sock go when you only find 1 in the dryer?? Another example, I dropped my earning back, I heard it hit the foot board on my bed but can I find it? How far can one of those things bounce. I've gone all over my carpet on my hands in knees in front of the bed, under the bed, under the chest..it is NO WHERE! I think I know where it goes - to another dimension. Then it just cross over and be there right on the floor and I'll be thinking - 'where have you been'.

I've started back cross stitching at night. I haven't stitched in 2 months with packing and moving and I forgot how much I love it. I've missed it. I find it very relaxing and calming. I'm working on a piece for my girlfriends daughters baby. I haven't started the birth sampler because I'm a little superstitious and don't want to start to far before the baby is due. Which is October 30. I'll probably start in next week. But the other piece I'm working on is so cute. It's a Cricket design and it's the alphabet in bright colors. Since it has buttons on it, I'll frame it.

Off to Chicago this weekend to watch my daughter run in the Chicago Marathon. This is her third marathon and she just loves all this running. But the added bonus is, my 3 sisters and 1 brother (plus alot of nieces and nephews) live there and I get to see them. I also get to meet the 'boyfriend' finally - what do I grill him about - LOL.

I'm also going to see my Uncle John who is dying of cancer. He was only diagnosed at the end of August - the week I moved into my new house - but he is going down hill fast. He is my Uncle who was only 13 when I was born and use to bring his friends by to show me off. And his birthday is Aug 2, so we are almost birthday buddies (mine is Aug 4). And since I'm going to be in Chicago - I need to go see him and just give him a hug.
