possibilities...

It's possible that this weekend I'll finish baby blanket #3.

It's possible that I'll buy at least one skein of yarn, possibly more but that depends on who is with me at the time.

It's possible that I'll end up in a Dirndl Skirt dancing on a table swinging beer steins around.

It's possible that if I'm in a dirndl, D will be in lederhosen.

It's guaranteed that there will be no photos of this...

It's Oktoberfest weekend and anything is possible!

Things that are a given:

1. I'll be visiting a new yarn shop over the weekend called Wooly Bully Yarns. I'll give a thorough report as soon as I'm done there!

2. I will be making french toast casserole and monkey bread this weekend.

3. Beer will be consummed. Possibly in large quantities.

4. There will be singing, dancing, dirndls and lederhosen, not necessarily gracing this body but they will be there.

5. I'm anxiously looking forward to my first bratwurst of the weekend... note I said first. I love a


good bratwurst!

I promise we'll have fun.
I promise I'll take an alarming amount of pictures.
I promise that I've already started working on D to get us moving way earlier than we need to, the negotiation is still on-going. It's possible that I've suggested that I would just meet him there later in the day...

it's wrong to laugh at this but i do, every single time. i refer to it as
his private dining.

On a side note, I think Mr. Brown is getting better but then I think he's not. I'm not sure. We had to switch from the soft sided cone to the hard plastic ones. The hard plastic are the ones he's known for getting out of and destroying. So far though after a few tips from Washington Boxer Rescue the cone is still on. Hopefully he'll make good strides over the weekend. His follow up is next Wednesday. If it's not better by then they'll have to do the procedure again and I'll probably have them sew his eye shut for a couple weeks to let it heal...
when he's mad at me he looks away like this till he remembers he's hungry

by the time this is all done, he's going to hate me.
but I feed him so he'll love me again eventually...

Happy Thursday!!

ps. Remember you can also find me on Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, and Ravelry in the America's Knitting Group all under Carmelknits.

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
