Ok so the street was not named after me but still a street with my name. My name is just uncommon. I know there is a singer out there with my name. My Mom actually named me after Tuesday Weld's character on the Dobie Gillis show. Some of you may not know Dobie Gillis because the show ran in the late 50s. I guess my Mom loved the name. It was not easy in school because no one else had the name and I really did not like that I was not a Janet or Kimberly or some other common name. Now I am ok with it because look at this... after 40 some years on the planet I found a street and a surf shop. The surf shop is in Laguna and they have shirts with the name Thalia Street Surf Shop so of course I had to have one. My dear husband discovered the surf shop when someone at his work had the Thalia t-shirt on. Hubby then insisted we need to visit. It was a fun Saturday drive and I loved the street sign.
I have not done much sewing. I have been knitting. I am working on the Heather Hoodie. My first try with cables. I don't know why I was so scared they are not bad. I have completed my first pattern from a chart too. I still have a long way to go to get it done. My wonderful 17 year old asked me how long it was going to take me to knit a sweater when it takes me forever to make a pair of socks. I would love to wear it at Thanksgiving so that is my goal. Now if I could just stop reading blogs and Ravelry.
