running behind...

I blame it on the three day weekend.
Yesterday I meant to do the weekend rewind.
Today I meant to post what I've been knitting
Tomorrow nobody knows.
Thursday I'll have a recipe for you all that I've made twice in the past week and it's delicious.

So how about this really quickly:
Friday was my first bowling league. 85-85-138 was my score for all three sets
Friday night was also a hockey game with friends.
Saturday I was lazy for the first part of the morning and don't feel one bit guilty about it, and Saturday evening was another hockey game that ended in an overtime shootout! Very exciting, especially since the Silvertips won!
Sunday is weigh in day and lucky me I'm down two pounds (i've been really focusing on getting my health on along with getting D's health on) Sunday was also my first sewing class. True to form I didn't purchase any of the supplies ahead of time instead choosing to wait till 3 hours before class started. Let's just say that sitting for two hours learning something new humbles you in a whole new way. I'm excited though. If this doesn't work out though I have a back up plan...

I knit a slouch. The Felicity pattern on Ravelry in Trilly Silk and Merino. It's beautiful.
I am currently knitting another slouch. Seedling by Alana Dakos in 100% cashmere in the perfect shade of red.

So there's the update
tomorrow will be pictures
and maybe by thursday i'll get my groove back.

we can all have hope right?

happy tuesday

SSYC... My First Official Yarn Crawl...

It's true... I've never actually participated in a yarn crawl or LYS tour. When I worked at So Much Yarn I had the pleasure of working the weekend of the LYS Tour but I've never done it. Well, the SSYC, South Sound Yarn Crawl covers 9 shops that aren't included for whatever reason in the Seattle LYS Tour that covers around 25 shops in the area. Maybe they're too far off the beaten path. It's not because they aren't in Seattle because there are shops way way way out of town that are included in the Seattle LYS tour. Whatever the reason, it's not important. What is important is that Mary and I both took Friday off and hit the road. I caught the 7:15 Ferry to Kingston, Arrived at Mary's about 8:00. Mary and I have the same china. Mine came from my Grandmother, her's came from her mom. Tried making friends with her fluffy dog Mae. Someday she'll come to love me, for now I'll respect her tenative personality and love her fro...

Spring Cleaning = no VK Live

I don't get a cleaning bug often. I truly dislike it. I would rather knit than scrub a toilet or polish something... But it happens that I get the urge to purge (too much listening to the Top Gun soundtrack this weekend) and when the momentum is high and lasts three days I won't fight it... I can't. Plus I probably saved at least $250.00 by not going to a knitting expo! Have you ever done a big ruthless purge on your stuff? You can learn a lot about who you are or who you have been... 1. I apparently have an affection for lined notebooks and notepads considering I've counted 17 in my living room alone. 2. I easily have 50+ knitting books on my shelf and have only knit one pattern from one of them. 3. 2011 I was a grumpy snot at Christmas. So grumpy I didn't even open any Christmas cards. I didn't thrown them out either apparently... I'll open them later today. 4. My sister-in-law M gives me some pretty awesome gifts. Funny notebooks (o...

Happy Birthday Mom!

I know I know, I'm a couple days early but I wanted to make sure you saw it before you sailed off to the deep blue sea... Literally. I've been thinking for a few days on what I would write for you on your birthday. How to best express just how amazing you are and how amazing it is that I got you for my mom. You've given me so much in my life that I am grateful for, that to try and put it into words would take a lifetime. I love the time we spend together. I love the way we laugh together. We've come so far and our adventures aren't over yet. I love you mom. Happy Birthday
