Ah so I started another project but won’t show it til I am far enough along to know that my in project gauge matches my in swatch gauge. While I was working compulsively on said mystery project I had ample opportunity to spit splice. Yes I am worried about yarn quantities and using another person’s leftovers before digging into my yarn. So far 5 splices and not halfway through the ribbing. At the same time Miss Nece had some licorice sticks. She has decided to splice her licorice and it was too cute. Just imagine your under 2yr old holding her licorace side by side and rubbing her palms together.
Wednesday evening Zoe tried to change the TV channel which I had set to Fox for the Deluded Assessment of State of Union and Misguided Goals for next four years Address. When I wouldn’t let her change the channel she asked if she could use the computer to do her homework. Oh wait there is an important point before I get to the actual story…. I do not discuss politics with my children and neither does my husband. We keep our differing opinions to ourselves and I have been very conscious about not sharing my feelings about the president with them. OK anyway I asked: what homework its almost bedtime and you haven’t done your homework yet what homework. Yes it was one parental stream of chastisement and questioning at same time. I need to do a report on the president. Ah dearie the president is about to come on why don’t you watch him with me and use something he says? But Mooooooooooooooooooooooom I am looking for facts. Smart kid.
Lauren finished knitting up her SP3 gift from moi and looks mighty cute. Scroll down to Jan 30th entry and check it out. Toni mentioned the sizing issue on her blog today. My disorganized ramblings of other day~ I was ranting instead of clear &consise~ boil down to the XL size for many magazines/designers is the same as a size 8. Ah Toni also asked about White Lies Designs. Yes I am familiar with her work and even knit part of one of her sample garments. Luv luv luv them. Very feminine. Still sleeping 12-16hrs a day thanks to my new medication schedule. BTW its antihistimines. Don’t take antihistimines and try to stay awake if your Elka.
Cyas on Monday hopefully with more energy and knit related posts ;^>
