Getting Closer

Finishing up the packing -- Tuesday should be the last of the packing except for the last minute things. I packed my net shopping bag with diapers for Walen and his clothes, some reading material, dog sweaters and leashes.

I have frogged Walens new blanket twice -- after having the oval rug start rolling up into what looked like a gravy boat -- I frogged that and tried a rectangle shaped one - to have it look like a dog bone in shape! Frogged that one so we are back to a rectangular granny and it is turning out fine.

As I thought, the baby pinafore and diaper panty set fit my Bitty Baby look a like perfectly. Once we are settled, I will find out which hospital needs baby items and start crocheting again. This set I can't donate yet as I had to use velcro as the closing, since I can't find my needle threader to thread a needle and sew on buttons. Just a reminder, everyone, old age is not for sissies!

Well, she has to go back into the doll chest with her new clothes on-- as did the Baby Steps dolls -- they will be riding in the pickup bed -- no room in the inside!

Final packing of the truck will be Thursday afternoon except for the breakfast items and our bedding. Those will be packed last minute, before we leave for the bank to pick up my retirement check, and we will stop at Wal-mart on the way out of town to pick up the necessary prescriptions, get on I-79 and haul butt for home!
