A conversation...

D: will you do me a favor today?
Me: what is it? (I rarely give a straight up yes when anyone asks me this question)
D: will you go to the team store and pick me up a Seahawks tee?
Me: the one in Seattle?
D: no at the mall.
Me: The mall? (I say this a little taken aback and with some surprise)
D: yes... The mall
Me: ummm okay *i quick pull out my phone
D: what are you doing
Me: pulling up a map of the mall.
D: why?
Me: I need to map out the quickest way in and out in relation to the team store...

I have mall aversion. I don't think I've voluntarily gone to the mall in 25 years... I go at Christmas because we are procrastinators, but even then I'm not that willing :) and the last two Christmases we've gone to mall I've broken out in a rash all over my torso... Not fun.

Needless to say I did the favor, d will be sporting a new vintage looking Seahawks shirt at the preseason game against the Broncos tonight...

Me! I'll be kicking it with my niece at the Aquasox game in Everett...

Unless it rains out

Which looks highly likely...

For now, I'm knitting.

D just reminded me I need to pick him up at work.

So much for knitting.

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
