So much to tell so little time...

I would love to tell you all I have so much time to post pictures and so on onto my blog to show you all what all I have been working on.  But here is a list so far:

• 2 pairs of cabled arm warmers (one of the four are finished)(One for me and one for a friends daughter in a very cool black and Jolly Rancher Sour Apple color)


• 1 felted candy dish which I have to finish today (Black and Orange)


• 1 Knitted Afghan (for a friend) Quick and Easy (Using large needles and super bulky yarn)


• 1 cabled head band (Totally addicted to cables).  

I am holding off casting on cabled leg warmers… they looked so cool…. I must make them.

What is going on with me.  I have casted on most of this just in the last week.  I also have all my other projects but I decided to do all these also… Oh what have I gotten myself into.

I hope to have so photos up this weekend but I am helping a friend while she deals with her mother who is gravely ill.  My prayers and thoughts are with her and her brothers as they deal with this tragic time in their lives.

As for yarns well I have too much to add to my posting.  I have recently started to work with Hannah Silk in this awesome dropped stitch narrow scarf.  I hope to have it finished and wrapped for a Xmas gift.

As for my stitch markers, well I can tell you that I am in the process today of making lots more.  I recently decided to make some and to share them with others like I have been but I asked Johnny to make me a display for all of them.  Now if I can just get him to commit to making the display.  I have it all figured out in my mind and I showed him a sample.  You would think since he is a contractor and owns ever tool known to man he would be able to do it.  He just does not have the time.  So his usual answer to my whining about making it is to just order one.  BUT I want a special one…  I am not whining loud enough.   But I have my priorities on the whining.  I am whining very loudly right now for a Laptop.  First things are first.

I want a laptop so I can - Oh this is so bad.  So I can blog and be gone.  So I can work on computer work while knitting… every where…. Am I sick or what…LOL

Well I am off to go and knit in peace for awhile this morning. This will mean that I will have to go and sit and knit in my car since the dogs/cat/stepson are all taking up all the oxygen in the house…  My stepson is very sick and I am so worried about him.  He has never been this sick as long as I have known him.  But I know that he has what I had a few weeks ago so I can totally relate.  As for the dog shall we say 10 months old Labradoodle that is going through puberty… as for the cat… well this is a Johnny fault.  He feeds the dogs and cat from his plate.  The bad thing is that the cat will eat everything and anything.  From French fries to steak to apple pie.  Johnny left his apple pie out last night and I left my dinner plate (steak/rice/beans) out.  The trash was too full and we were all tired.  So this morning when Johnny got up like normal he makes his coffee.  And then gets the milk out and pours it into his cup.  Then pours some for each dog and then some for the cat.  Ok… here is where it gets not so good… for the light stomach people stop reading>>>>


The cat and dogs drank all theirs.  
My stepson got up and start to run for the bathroom to get sick.  While he was in the bathroom I heard strange sounds from the cat… Yeap the cat was now vomiting all over the kitchen floor…. Then if that was not enough Johnny starts yelling at the dog because the dog (iPod) turns around and hicks his leg on Johnny’s side of the bed.  And if that was not enough I Well that was enough for me…. I had to put on my cleaning hat! Yeap Mom to the rescue!

Put the Cat out.
Clean Up
Change bedding
Kill Dog! (Not literally just had to scold him and put him out)
Put the Dog outside.
Clean up more cat stuff.  (How in the heck can a cat get that sick in that short of time)
Start Laundry to clean the bedding.
Clean up more cat stuff that you found that you did not know about at first!
Worry that my stepson is going to be ok.
Someone (I can not say who) is going to drive to school for the first time.
Worry that I am going to strangle a dog.
Send grouchy Johnny to the store to get a few groceries for his son who is very sick.
All of this by 5am this morning.

Did I mention that I am not a morning person AT ALL

So yes I am going to go, after cleaning up everything and getting everything situated I am going to go and knit in peace and eat some breakfast. By MYSELF.

Calgon take me away!

My theropy is to sit at our LYS and just veg out and look at all the awesome wonderful stuff and knit away! As Johnny would say “Knit-A-Hoy”!
