Finally back on the needles

It has been a while since I knit anything. Since the last time I posted I've moved into a new house and seen that new house almost get hit by a tornado. We've been in clean up mode since then. Got a huge tree removed from the back yard, thank God it didn't hit the house. Took out almost all the fence though. Took lots of shingles off the roof, so that's gotta be replaced; broke the pane and jam of the french doors, those are going to be replaced with a regular window now; also have to replace one wall of siding. Lots to do. $$$$$. Ouch! Thank goodness for insurance, wind deductible or not.
So, I finally got back to work on the lovely ocean storm colored shawl/wrap for my mom the other day. It's so easy, I do it while I watch TV. Or I did, we still haven't got the dish back up and working since the tornado; we figured it'd be better to wait until they're done with the roof since that's where it's mounted and they'll just have to move it again while they're up there.
So that's the report. Not much. Gotta get the materials for a couple more turtles for some new babies we know.
