Wednesday, 31 December 2003 10:49 A GMT-06
10. Be diligent in getting girls to their new music lessons (guitar for Elder and Piano for Younger) so they can become famous musicians and buy me a mansion. OK, so that dream will take a few years.
9. Get Cornice Board treatments made for the livi

Well at least a 1/2" has! Yep, hair cut day. Little lighter highlights this time, but not that you can tell. I am going for the realistic ones. Bangs are seriously shorter, must remember to not go so short next time. I am at a point where I need a ne

Slowly getting back to Norman here. But things are still touchy feely. Stomach thing acts up any time I eat but the REAL nausea is gone. So today was all about getting some errands run.
We had bought some soap dispensers for the bathrooms while
Where did my Merry Christmas go?
Saturday, 27 December 2003 7:12 P GMT-06
I had it Tuesday and Wednesday. But Thursday it got up and went, and in it's place was 2 sickies with stomach bug blues. My eldest and I missed Christmas completely. I thought it sucked. There we were home in bed while my youngest got to spend Christ

May you and yours enjoy this Holiday Season. Good wishes for a Happy New Year and prosperity of health, knitting and stash in the future. That's all that really matters, right? Health so we can continue knitting, and stash to make it happen!
Done, Finito, Finished, It's out of here!

Christmas shopping. I'm over it. Never gonna do it again this year. At the end of my list(and wits). Now it's time to take it easy and relax. Knitting figures prominently in the next few days. Dryer is drying the Daypack and Fuzzy Feet as I type. 2 t
Argh!
Monday, 22 December 2003 5:42 P GMT-06
That's the sound you make when you try to turn on your computer and it's no go. DH was trying to load the new digital camera software yesterday and ended up dropping the tower a little and an awful noise ensued. Turned it off and back on and it seeme
Where was I?

I think I started a post yesterday, but somewhere around posting it and life it didn't happen. Can't even remember what it was about! So here is a new and improved post. Skip this next part if you tire easily.
Life was hectic yesterday. I got up and
Who's got the snow?
Friday, 19 December 2003 9:04 A GMT-06
Sandy said she was sending some my way. It never got here. I think she got mixed up on her directions. But even though the snow didn't show the gloves finally made it home. I got them back and then delivered them to my daughter at school so she could
Rejoice!! Rejoice!!
Thursday, 18 December 2003 7:00 P GMT-06
The gloves are found!!! They took up residence in the Lucy Bag I gave my cousin's daughter on Saturday. She didn't know who they were for. Guess I should have called Monday when I got the thought that might be what happened. Procrastination is to bla

Feeling much better today. Had a great night out with DH at his company Christmas Party last night. Wore one of my new "not the usual Chris outfits" last night. My oldest even commented "That's not something you usually wear." I asked if it was
Funk

Boy have I hit bottom. First thing is the continuing flu bug I have. Ready for it to be gone. Didn't sleep well due to the nagging cough. Then Monday morning woke up to find that I can't FIND the gloves I just finished knitting for the school bus dri
Fuzzy Feeling!
Sunday, 14 December 2003 1:26 P GMT-06
"I've got that Fuzzy Feeling, Whoa-oa, that Fuzzy Feeling." And it's a denimy feeling too. Found this Fun Fur and searched endlessly, OK, actually it only took one trip to Threadbear to find the Cascade 220 color to match. Now to convince my sister t
Do I really want to sew ever again?
Friday, 12 December 2003 5:14 P GMT-06
Yesterday afternoon was all about sewing more valances at my mom's. The living room needs some more umph! so I merrily sewed and when I got to the end I had twisted fabric. Argh! So I sat and ripped and was pleased with the end result. Boy I hat
Good morning to you!

Everything is wonderful here in Eville, hope life is great where you are. I have been knitting up a storm, a snow storm! The Daypack body is done and now it's time for about 80" of i-cord, oh joy! But that's better than 80" of body. The converti

Went to my guild meeting last night. We had our Christmas potluck dinner. Yummy! Even though I didn't have much of an appetite I did my best. The best part was the companions. But due to the bug I have I scooted out early and headed for hom

But really, check out the knitty winter edition. Quite a few things I am going to have to knit. And of course there is my pattern, Flappers. Hmm, I am going to have dig for some soft and cushy yarn to make Nakiska, good for the ears, easy on the hair
Lazy Day
Saturday, 6 December 2003 7:53 P GMT-06
Haven't done much of anything today. Had a board meeting/Christmas meeting with my EGA group. I made it to the meeting but they told me to go home and rest. But before that I ended up at Lowe's to get some paint for my living room. Tibetan Red!
Lucy's Ball
Friday, 5 December 2003 8:07 A GMT-06
Yes Lucy is done, not quite the redhead you might have expected, but she sure is a ball, bag that is. This is the large "ball" bag of the Lucy pattern. You can make a smaller version of this or a deeper bag that is not quite so, um, b

Stop that pounding!
Wednesday, 3 December 2003 7:54 A GMT-06
Oh, it's all in my head. Yes, the sore throat has turned into the pounding sinus infection. The thing that gets to me the most is the itchy ears. So yesterday was a bust concerning knitting. Didn't touch the stuff, except to move it ou
cough, cough
Tuesday, 2 December 2003 8:12 A GMT-06
Excuse me, sorry for the whisper, but I am loosing my voice. Sure, some of you are glad to hear that. My sore throat must be as red as the fingerless gloves I am working on!
That's right, you see there a new project. Oh, I didn't have that as an op
"No comment" was heard from the knit designer as she went into her studio.
Monday, 1 December 2003 9:13 A GMT-06
OK, it really was no comments were available on the blog of a not-really-a-knit-designer. Seems I didn't have the right color for the blog panel and the comments info didn't show up. Leave it to Sandy notice, she should be a dick-tective.
