Hufflepuff is in 2nd place!

Ok, I know it’s down right greedy of me, and honestly a bit too competitive for what I’d like to think of myself, but I am so glad that the Housemistress has decided to award points based on percentages… the Hufflepuffs, and the Slytherins have such fewer numbers than everyone else! How can we even stand a chance at winning if we just don’t have the numbers! Now I do hope that the prefects have sorted out who’s going to be watching ‘me’… as I was being followed by a prefect for Ravenclaw! Weird… Dianne assured me that it would be taken care of though…

I’m excited to get todays questionairre and get working on the swap stuff… I did some searching last night for bags… and hopefully have found a good pattern I have secured my stitch markers too… and now just to get my colors and partner

The long lost Busby!

This is Busby… his story is a fun and exciting one. He came to me by way of Jen, my running friend in Hawaii, Loretta, my knitting, running friend in Oklahoma, and Tracy my running friend in NoVA. He’s our running groups travel buddy. Our mission is to introduce him to life in our family/state, and take him on a run and then mail him on to the next runner friend. Well, I have 3 small children, and a stuffed animal that’s only ‘visiting’ the house is a very big deal. Busby had to have a night in each of their beds, and had to go to the playground and go running with each of the kids as well as their mom! Somehow though, Busby decided he wasn’t ready to leave and when it came time for me to send him on his way, when he decided to hide in some drawer for a few weeks. The kids say it’s because he doesn’t want to leave…

Of course I had decided that I’d knit him a hat and scarf to keep him warm (he’s headed to Minnesota)… and now that I’ve finally found him, it’s officially spring EVERYWHERE.. even in MN! Oh well… he’s well dressed for his flight (surely the USPS will fly him there)…

And fortunately, Busby got to meet Jim… another of our running group.. .and go on a group run with Jim, Myself, and two of my littles….
