being sick and making tamales

Apparently I thought this was a good idea. yeah.. anyway I'm sick, it blows I hate being sick. Ruins my day. and today I am making Tamales. I love tamales. My favorite thing in the world to eat, but they are a pain in the arse to make. I especially hate pulling the pork. it's gross and slimey. yuck. but someone has to do it and dave isn't here. At any rate. after all the hard work I will have tamales to eat. YAY!!!!!!!!!! that is all back to your normal lives. :D

"the boy"

oh... the boy i will never get over....

the boy who lived a whole life, not a full life, a whole life.

the boy who became a man at 12; the boy who had a child, got married, went to war, had another child and came home....

the boy who lived in a world full of women-the estrogen ocean we called it-and completed us all in a different way.

the boy who is gone now, who i will never stop wanting to call cuz i will always have something to tell; the boy who will give none of us away to marry; who will never be able to hate our husbands; who my daughter will ache for-her mattie-for the rest of her life.... their bond was like no other.

the boy who will never "fitz it" again.

the boy is gone now.... who was not a boy at all but a man.... one of my best friends, and i called him the boy.

Another baby jacket!!

So totally addicted to BICO's now its crazy. I made this one for a friend special order of pink and brown for a little girl. So I did it in the slightly different edging. I love the buttons on this one I think that it just makes the jacket well for me anyway. I am going to be making two more, a purple one and a green one. I can't wait to see them. I just need to get buttons for the green one. I think I am going to go bigger on these and try the 12 month size. Anyway not going to keep you all in suspense any longer.. here is the blanket. go ahead I know you wanna awww..
