My day!

So today is the first day of the winter schedule for me. 0530 am to
0730 pm! Long days, 3 round trips and you all know I don't like
getting up early. It went ok and I'm feeling good so far.

On the needles:
I am working on my first pair of socks! I took on dpn's and toe up
socks!! It is going fine now that the toe is established!!! I am also
finishing a baby blanket. Also going to cast on some mittens and baby
sweaters... Its getting cold and I really am feeling the knitting
bug!!!

Getting ready to move in a week or so.... Just down the road to a
little chalet on the rockland harbor. Its a bit set back from the
water, but still a great view!!! Very excited!! Woot!!!!

I am going to try and update the blog more often!! I am excited for
the packers Vikings game tonight and the twins and tigers game
tomorrow night!!!! Woooohhhhooooo!!!!!

How does there get to be such huge gaps in my posting? i think facebook takes over a bit with the updating.

Summer Summary:

I am dating a phenominal man, Jeremy. Here is our first camping trip.


We had a great time camping and have hiked all over Mid Coast Maine. I have had one of the best summers ever. He is truely a phenominal person and enhances my life in so many ways...

I have just recently got my knitting mojo back. It was a great summer and i spent so much time outside, i didn't have time to knit!! But it's getting chilly and I am knitting more and more. Starting to learn about socks and if I want to knit socks... I like it so far! :) We'll see. I'm gonna hit up the Knit Picks 40% off book sale... Got a great surprise in my paycheck and I'm gonna treat myself. it's been a hard summer financially, so I'm gonna get a little treat!! I'll try to update more often!!!

San francisco!!!

So I made the trip to San Fran yesterday to visit my cousin, Scott! I
got into SFO and took the train to Embarcadero area and he met me. We
got some great food at Elephant and Castle, along with a couple great
local brews. We headed back to his house and crashed about 11 pm(2am
my time on the east coast)

So of course I wake up about 630am local(930 eastern which is my
normal wake up time). I have a beatiful view of the bay bridge and
downtown san fran from his porch. Awesome!!! I will link to the
photos later!

At the moment, I am sitting on Pier 39, eating chowdah out of a
sourdough bowl and people watching. Might head to golden gate park
later. But I do know tomorrow I will be going to Alcatraz!!!! Oh
yea!!!!! Will post more soon!!

Maine it is!!!!

Well, I have arrived in Maine. Actually, I'm in Phoenix at the moment, but my car and stuff is in Rockland, ME. Here is a link of the journey from my last night in San Juan to my arrival in Maine... Long road trip, ugh, but it's over now.

SJU to RKD

And here are some pictures from my first couple days in Rockland.

Rockland Days

I also have a place to live... I will be sharing a home with a very nice lady named Betsy. She has a cat and a dog and a very homey little place for me to put my head. I think it will work out well.

Wow! Too long!!!

Hello everyone!! It has been over 2 months!! YIKES!! I have been slacking!! But here is my latest update.

I have 3 weeks left in San Juan, Puerto Rico. Then I will be moving to...................(drum roll)

Rockland, Maine!!!

it was my first choice with Cape Air and I was lucky enough to get it. I have never been to maine, but i have done a bunch research and that one appealed to me the most... Stay tuned for more updates as the days get shorter in San Juan!!

What a day!!

So Friday at work it started a bit confusing and frustrating and I'm not sure why. Everything was bugging me and set the tone for the day. I did one trip to Tortola, and then went to Vieques...

Well I got to Vieques and the ramp agent said, "I have 1 revenue passenger and 7 non-rev's". Meaning a bunch of fellow co-workers had spent the day there. Well, I was in NO mood to deal with all of them. So I put some tunes on my headset and jammed out for a few minutes. Then they all walk out, they are yelling at me, "hey Katie" "Que Paso"(what's up?) "KATIE O" and they were all in a super good mood... I'm sure the drinking on the beach all day didn't hurt any!!!

So They pile in and off we go. We are cracking up all the way to San Juan. They totally made my day. As we were coming in to land, they all put their hands in the air like they were on a roller coaster and were hootin' and hollerin'. Then I had a great landing and they started chanting, "katie katie katie" and saying, Let's go again, lets go again... " Well it turned my day from frustrating to awesome. So I headed off for my last round trip and it was a gorgeous night. What a beautiful day!!! Here is a picture of the whole crew!!!
