The Whitlock Family

Who cares if I didn’t write anything yesterday? Not me. I had better things to do, like fall asleep on the couch after watching Sunday Night Football. NaBloPoMo was a bust. At least to me. It was difficult to write, or at least think of something to write about. Posting just a picture seemed pretty lame to me. So when I woke up at 12:45 this morning I really could have cared less that I missed writing yesterday.

I had to make the long 60 mile drive to McKinney this morning to install a few parts on a machine that were ordered before Thanksgiving and after finishing up I did a search for “yarn” in google maps on my phone. Low and behold Yarn Again popped up. It showed to be less than a mile from where I was, so I figured I’d drive by. It was located across from the county courthouse. I parked and went looking for the address. 208 E Louisiana St. The sign read Antique House. I guess Google wasn’t up to date or something. I figured I go on in since I was there. Lots of cool things, some I’d consider ‘junk’ if it were in my garage. Though, there were some nifty pieces of furniture, old Christmas items, and even a hand crank meat grinder. Upstairs was mostly just a wrap around with a big hole looking down. There were three rooms at the rear of the second floor. I guess Google was right, because posted above the last one was the sign I was looking for. Yarn Again. Inside were various selections of baby alpaca, merino, and hand painted cotton yarns. Nothing really suited my fancy. There were some patterns for knit socks and a scarf. All in all a good find. I had a photo but my phone doesn’t want to upload it for some reason.

We won in volleyball tonight. We lost in volleyball tonight.
No, that is not a mistake. We did both. Our match at 8:30 tonight went to 3 games and we came though on top. We then turned around and played at 9:30. That game didn’t do so well, not even needing the tie breaker. We pulled a “Cowboys Can’t Pull Though in December” moment and lost against yet another team we defeated in the regular season. I can’t say we didn’t play bad, but we didn’t play well either. See you in February.

Here is the skinned up knee she got after falling in the drive way over the weekend.
