running behind...

I blame it on the three day weekend.
Yesterday I meant to do the weekend rewind.
Today I meant to post what I've been knitting
Tomorrow nobody knows.
Thursday I'll have a recipe for you all that I've made twice in the past week and it's delicious.

So how about this really quickly:
Friday was my first bowling league. 85-85-138 was my score for all three sets
Friday night was also a hockey game with friends.
Saturday I was lazy for the first part of the morning and don't feel one bit guilty about it, and Saturday evening was another hockey game that ended in an overtime shootout! Very exciting, especially since the Silvertips won!
Sunday is weigh in day and lucky me I'm down two pounds (i've been really focusing on getting my health on along with getting D's health on) Sunday was also my first sewing class. True to form I didn't purchase any of the supplies ahead of time instead choosing to wait till 3 hours before class started. Let's just say that sitting for two hours learning something new humbles you in a whole new way. I'm excited though. If this doesn't work out though I have a back up plan...

I knit a slouch. The Felicity pattern on Ravelry in Trilly Silk and Merino. It's beautiful.
I am currently knitting another slouch. Seedling by Alana Dakos in 100% cashmere in the perfect shade of red.

So there's the update
tomorrow will be pictures
and maybe by thursday i'll get my groove back.

we can all have hope right?

happy tuesday

Knitter Down...I Repeat, We Have a Knitter Down...

It's probably not that dramatic, well maybe it is, who can say for sure....but I can say this, right now from my elbow to my wrist is some gnarly pain that was flared last night after knitting 6 rows of the Shawl...SIX ROWS and then WHAMMO! so much pain. This isn't the first day I've had this, I've actually been ignoring for a few days ...okay, I've been ignoring it for a couple weeks but this is the worst it's been...So, I've made inquiries as to which doctor to see and am waiting to hear back to make an appointment...while I wait ice packs, and copious amounts of pain meds (don't worry by copius I really mean, recommended daily dose) are being taken with the shedding of a few tears while I fondle my knitting... stay tuned...this can't possibly last forever xoxoxo c. p.s. Fati...don't worry I have a plan if this whole wrist issues blows out of control...

W.I.P

Bears Barn Owl. We had a hockey game last night and while I'm normally so wrapped up in the game that I don't have time to knit, that was not the case last night. Silvertips have had a rough go and the Red Deer Rebels really wolloped them last night. So I knit. I ate some dingleberries. Delicious. and I knit some more. I have a feeling I'll be finishing this bad boy up by tomorrow and he'll be the star of the retreat. Isn't his color wonderful?

The countdown...

The Elbow has taken things a little to far. After three cortisone shots, icing, and squeezing exercises, it's just not behaving... Tuesday I went into the MRI tube do the Doc H. Could get a good look at what's going on...wear and tear is what's going on and it's only getting worse.. I can keep getting shots of cortisone but eventually they'll stop being as effective. Surgery will be the best option. That's right. SURGERY Wanna know the worst part? Recovery can take up to five months Five Months 5 FIVE months of no knitting... . . . I'll give you a second to get up off the floor... . . . You read that again didn't you? . . . my friend MzKimba has graciously offered to take care of my stash. However I think I'll just pack it all up and store it somewhere safe till I get the all clear from Doc H. Now all this being said, I have projects that need to be completed, so I'm going to try and schedule the surgery for som
