Curiously Intertwined

Friday, April 24, 2026

Late this afternoon I got a severe weather alert on my phone.

Shortly after that the local sirens went off indicating a tornado warning.

The storm was fast to come and fast to go.

Later I saw videos of swirling debris taken from motorists.

Even later I read that there might have been a tornado

along a road Fireball takes home from work.

Luckily, he had taken off early and was already home.

Now that the hat is done, I'm back at my socks.

I completed three more pattern repeats

and started the heel flap today.

It has not been hard to jump back into.

I'm trying to be better at finishing things

before I cast on a new thing.

Sometimes it cannot be avoided.

I finally finished the knitting of the Musselburgh hat.

I am so excited about it.

Tomorrow I'll block it and figure out a way to show you

the four different ways to wear it.

I went to the back yard

to check out the progress on my lilac bush.

While most of the buds are not open,

there are buds covering the entire plant

and the fragrance is amazing.

The answer to the latest What is it? post is Clue, Live on Stage!

It was fast, funny and fun.

Last week the washer and the dryer needed repairs.

This week the water heater needs replacing.

It must be the season for appliances.

Look what I found in the mailbox.

It's Fireball.

Today we ate the last of the Easter eggs.
