Proud Moment...

I did it.
You guys...
I DID IT.
I figured out where I was in Peerie Flooers.
I figured out my color card with wine*
I made a lot of progress last night watching Friends.

The dpn is marking where I left off four years ago and you can see how much got done last night.
Side note: I have never ever watched the final episode of Friends. I can't bring myself to do it.
Yes I know the show ended 14 years ago.
I will cry though. I will cry like no one should cry at the end of a series.
Like I cried at the series finale of Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
My husband loves to tell people I cried for the whole two hours.

Back to the PF and my glorious glorious glow of accomplishment.

I finished knitting it.
I only had eight rounds to go when I set it down last night like the responsible early rising adult I strive to be in this world.

I should point out I knit at lunch again so...

It's off the needles!!!



No poof on this. I do not want to hide this crown

I'm not weaving 98% of these. I'm doing the knot & snip technique thank you Mason Dixon Knitting
 So happy Wednesday. 
I'm going to block her tonight and Friday I'll give you the full head shot. 

*wine is never advisable while doing stranded colorwork espeically when you can't remember where you were four years ago, however it did make for a nice evening.

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
