Oh, the weekend...

This was Sunday morning during the Seahawks game.
Post Murder Mystery Dinner Baby Shower.
Post the not so hot pink but highly drinkable Barbie punch.
Post cake that is not appropriate content for this blog.
Post Friday night hockey.

It was a fun weekend
If you've never had a murder mystery party I highly recommend it. I had never done one and when we got rolling Saturday night I couldn't stop laughing.

We had so much fun with mystery part and then we celebrated the new baby who will be here in December...

The cake was awesome.
I saw the picture and sent it to Lisa as a joke. Lisa's husband sent it to Clint as a joke. Kim and Clint were excited that the cake I sent, which was horrifying, was awesome and so glad it was going to be their cake!

But like I said... Not appropriate for here.
But use your imagination... It has to do with birthing...

Vicki did an amazing job with it.
It was delicious.

Sunday I crashed. I knit and kept my feet in the 'up' position all day.
I finished my Age of Brass & Steam. It's just waiting to be blocked. I'll probably do that tonight... Or tomorrow.
I cast on a pair of Dancing Bamboo socks from the book Pints & Purls.
I've made them before, they are wonderful.


Happy Monday all...
I'll post about the ABS tomorrow :)

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
