Why is my grass greener?

Nice title, huh. Well, I was watching TV this morning and my DD wakes up and comes to sit in my lap. She points out the window and says "he's in the fence". I turn and look and our bull is chomping away at our grass. The massive beast had opened the gate and waltzed right in. So brave me - what do I do - I grab a mop handle (with no mop head) and a cattle prod and tromp on out to save my jungle that has become a tasty feast. Well....there we are head to head, face to face. He sees me and lowers his head. He starts coming at me. Now I am not too proud to run. So I hide behind my DD's playhouse. I beat the handle against the house and he turns and runs out the gate. Triumphantly I latch the gate and march inside. Now I know why our gate was open when I got home yesterday.

I have decided to attempt the Ballet Cami for my DS. I am using yarn from one of her old sweaters. I'm afraid that I won't have enough yarn because I had to double up so that I could get the right guage and have the material thick enough not to be see through. We'll see how it goes.

I was talking to a new knitter this weekend. She asked me if I had heard of any knitting clubs in the area. I haven't. She said that she had seen a flyer or something for one, but never went. She is just beginning on scarves and feels a little intimidated. She asked me if I teach people how to knit. I wouldn't mind being in a knitting group and helping people learn how to knit, but I know it would take time and I don't know how much time I will have with my new job.
