Not abandoning blog...

just taking a break. 

In about a month, we should be moving. And, well, that is a little overwhelming seeing as we have yet to find a rental and pack(unless you count the kid's pathetic attempts at toy sorting packing). I have not picked up my camera in a while. I just feel too overwhelmed to snap, edit. Lots of loose ends to tie up relatively quickly. My subscription at clickinmoms ran out too, and I am stalling on reinstating it. For one thing, not being able to log in has drastically reduced my web time, lol, leaving more time to prepare for our move. And, I picked up knitting again(more on that in a sec). I have some almost-done knitting projects for the 'pay it forward' summer event over there, and I need to get them done before summer is over. So, being logged off=more time to knit. Oh, the knitting. Funny that I would pick up that time consuming hobby again when I am so strapped for time, isn't it? This is pretty neurotic. I know it is just a way to escape all these obligations, but I gotta be honest...it is nice to knit again. I lost the knitting mojo, for whatever reason it became more like a chore than a hobby. A trip to a couple of yarn stores(sorry, Joe) remedied that, and I once again feel the therapy like qualities of knitting. That's nice. Because I am not here blogging, I am not checking my dashboard, so I am not visiting all the lovely bloggy mamas I have come to adore. I miss you all, and I am sorry for not being around to give some bloggy love. Anyhow, I thought I would check in seeing as I might be away for a while. ;) 

And since no post should ever be without a picture...I took these a while back but never blogged them. We have grape vines(that are totally wasted on us as I always intend on making grape jam but never do), and I was amazed at how fuzzy and colorful the fresh blooms and new leaves are! Weird.
