Here is the beaded edge so far.  From far away the colors all look the same but really there are two blues a clear, a frosted and a gray.  It looks nice but it is taking forever. There are supposed to be around 500 stitches and so far I have done 210 beads so I am almost half way done.  It's really hard because I can't take it with me when I'm waiting in the car or something.  I was planning on using a crochet hook to put the beads on but my hooks are just a touch too big.  I'm using dental floss but mine is flat so it's a bit weird.  I really wanted to get this done faster but it is what it is.  I'm hoping I can finish the beading tomorrow so I can block it.

On Saturday I wanted to play WOW but my husband hadn't payed it so I listened to podcasts.  I played a little WOW on Sunday but to do the beading I really can't do that so I listened to more podcasts.  I'm listing to them again today because I can't read subtitles and bead at the same time.  If I finish the beading I'll watch some kdrama.

We went to the park on Saturday but the kids didn't really like it.  The park we went to was one that kids have wanted to go to since they saw it.  It has a really cool viking ship in it but when we got there we realized that it was made for smaller children (like 3 year old children)  We'll try a different park next time.  The fun thing we did today was. Letterboxing.  The concept is similar to geocaching but it involves rubber stamps.  You can look up on a website called Atlas Quest (in the U.S.) and find out where the stamps are hidden. You follow clues to find a hidden box with a stamp and a notebook in it. You take your stamp and stamp it in the book and use the stamp that is there to stamp your book.  My daughter and I had done it once about four years ago and now that Mooky is bigger I thought he could do it too.  He complained that it wasn't fun but I think he did have fun.  I'm going to try an look for another box later this summer.  The one we found today was on the last page and when I posted that I got a note from the lady that left the box that she will get a new book for it. I am using a sheep stamp, Amey is using a monkey stamp with a bow in its hair and Mooky is using a quilted pumpkin for his.  I'm going to try to remember to take our supplies with us when we go somewhere on vacation or something.  

I think that's about it for me.  Upcoming plans are going to the John Dee museum and going back to the library and the botanical center (we haven't killed the plants we bought last time yet). I'll see you next time.
