Good Monday morning! Remember last Monday last week when they were forecasting snow and cold winds? And how it snowed and I brought out all my winter things and put away my flip flops? Well, this week it's supposed to be sunny and mold with highs of around 19. So now I'm putting away all my winter things and stashing away my boots and once again bringing out the tank tops and flip flops. And next week I will reverse it all again because likely it will snow again.
I now have an unlined cashmere coat. It's quite nice with a narrow silhouette, it ends just above the knees and I'm using wooden toggle buttons on it. I'm going to make a tapered skirt with a kick pleat on the back. The skirt will be longer than the hem of the coat. Now I have to get some lining for it. Len's has brown and taupe lining, either will do.
I was a kitty kat girl for Halloween. I wore my kat ears while shopping downtown. If you want to get people to stare at you, then wear kat ears. Later in the day I wore my kat tail in addition to the ears. When I met Dave he was still in his Pinocchio make-up which he wore for the rest of the day. I don't have any pictures of Dave in his full Pinocchio get up yet.
Tonight is the Discovery Channel show "Canada's Worst Drivers" This year the show started in Kitchener, it the parking garage on Queen Street. The host had his own bad driving moment, they showed him driving UP the exit helix ramp. It's down only. They introduced this year's crop of sucky drivers, including three hot chix with the brains of houseplants, a guy who look like the real life model for "Bubbles" from trailer park boys, a sociopath granny from Sault Ste Marie (who likely has had at least ten successful moose hunts, all using her car) and an assortment of nervous nellies. They sent the bad drivers from the queen street lot to Guelph, sending these morons through the streets of Kitchener. Two decided that Highway 7 between kitchener and Guelph was the perfect location for a race to see who got to the destination first. The race included blowing through stop signs and red lights, passing on solid lines, passing on shoulders and peeling out from the stop line. Fortunately their destination was the old Guelph jail, where these two were locked up for a while to pay for their highway transgressions.
Oh yes, That highway? It's one of the narrowest and busiest in the area, connecting Guelph, population 150,000; Cambridge, population 175,000, Waterloo, population 160,000 and Kitchener, population 210,000-225,000. It's a deadly road and one that should be taken seriously. On one message board I frequent I titled the discussion thread "CWD4:Countdown to the CRASH of '08"
And that is all for today. Tomorrow I have a few links to some free patterns for making some adorable stuffed toys including the sweetest little kitty cats EVAR! Later!
