I will be flying to the UAE to meet my ship around Nov 20.  Going from cold and snow to hot and desert.  I will be joining the Zarga as a Junior Officer. After my first tour I will be promoted to Third Officer.  No crocheting out at sea...yarn takes up too much room but I have two large cross stitch patterns I'll be working on. I'll be back sometime in March I think.

Halfway through my first summer home in years. I love Colorado in the summer. I've had the time to work on those big projects I couldn't do at school. I finally completed an afghan I've been staring at for years and I have two more lined up. I've been playing with my two dogs and shooting and fishing up at the cabin. On top of filling out endless amounts of paperwork for Shell.  I leave for training in late September then I'll start sailing for them as a Third Mate. Til then lots of yarning, movie watching and frisbee playing.

For the past few weeks I've been yarn bombing my school's campus. Just little things, on a light pole, on a tree... Well last night I put one on the fence surrounding the front yard of the President's house. It was removed by the time I woke up this morning, it didn't even make it 12 hours. The school colors one was also down today. The first two were up for weeks so I'll continue making them and see if the new ones get removed too. My school hates creativity and individualism...especially when there's an open house...
