Oh Saturday...

Gabby: think she's gonna feed us?
Mr. Brown: She'll feed us, make your eyes sadder.
you sit there at the end of the week like a beacon of hope.
a chance to not get up at 3:45 a.m. and try to whip up a smoothie
a chance to have more than one cup of rushed coffee that sometimes gets guzzled in the shower because stuffs gotta get done.
So much potential for being lazy in the mornings, maybe a little coffee in bed, maybe a little scrolling the inter webs from your phone before joining the real world, maybe even a treat out to breakfast and not a bowl of something getting soggy while you're working at your desk....

these are all potential things that could happen and be wonderful

unless...

you have two dogs who are on a very strict feeding schedule according to them.

4:00 a.m. is when they started rolling and making attempts to wake me.
5:30 a.m. is when I finally gave in...

so here I sit, slugging coffee after feeding the heathens and watching them sleep peacefully in their beds.

at least they'll get their beauty sleep for pictures today. No worries that I'm going to look like a train wreck :)

I'm going to get more coffee...

Happy Saturday

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
