No Supervision

VK Live is in Seattle/Bellevue this weekend. In fact it's beginning right now!
I will be attending Sunday.
I will most like be attending alone, unless of course my friend L (non-knitter but receiver and connoisseur of knit things) ends up being free and coming with me...
Should I attend alone a number of things could occur.

1. I'll be nervous and arrive at the convention center 4 hours before the doors open.

2. I won't know which of my knit hats/scarves/shawls/sweaters/mittens/socks I should wear and will end up walking out of the house covered head to toe in everything I've ever knit. Most likely with a huge smile on my face.

3. I'll get to the marketplace and be so overwhelmed I'll spend my whole time in the time out lounge...

4. I'll meet a designer or blogger or other knitter I admire/stalk online and embarrass myself with open gushing and over sharing about how I've felt we are kindred spirits and are best friends and will you spend the rest of your day with me! (If anyone reads of security being called in post show notes from VK Live its highly probable they were called because of me)

5. I'll max out the credit card and have to leave town instead of go home and face the husband.

#2 is the most likely. I'm sure L will take pictures if that happens. Pretty sure #4 is likely as well...

I should go give everything a fresh blocking now so the fresh smell of wool-ite will cover the smell of stress sweat...

Happy Friday!

p.s. still blue about no hockey... Tonight is usually bowling/hockey night. Now it's just bowling night... As D said to me earlier
bowling-hockey night > bowling night.

I will! I'll try not to freak out and not take any pictures or take pictures of a completely random non-knitterly nature! Have a good weekend!

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?

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...

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
