long day...

It's going to be a long day.
It already feels like a long day.
It's just me and my Gabby today.

Mr. Brown went in for a follow up on his corneal ulcer and instead of getting better it did the opposite.

that's right, it got worse.

way worse.

the good



news, because there is good news. His ear infection has cleared up.

the downside? He's getting a corneal keratotomy on his left eyes... they are basically scraping a grid onto the ulcer to promote a healing response.

Gabby doesn't like being at home when Mr. Brown isn't home.

neither do I for that matter.

I rearranged the furniture in the living room because the boy is coming home with a satellite on his melon so it'll be easier for him to walk around... it's going to be wicked for a while here.

on a positive note, the transformation of the guest room to guest/office/knitting room has begun.
I still have my desk from 1985 (thanks mom) and the chair, and the poem I wrote in 1985 and I've set that up for a work space. The open closet is housing all most of my yarn and it's kind of nice having it right next to me.


 




It's nice having Gabby next to me too

Happy Saturday

The 'To-Do' list...

and by 'to-do' list I mean 'to-knit' list. I'm really really trying to get on track with this list and stay deeply focused. It has helped that I have successfully removed all yarn from the living room and into Mr. Brown's Yarn shop on the second floor. Except for the fact that I went in there the other day with a shopping bag and loaded up. Currently in the sidelines to be finished 1. Ledge Trail Vest 2. Twiggy for me 3. 70 Yard Mitt for my other hand Finished those bad boys last night! this is what happens when you use the 10s burst hands free option on your iphone and you're holding said phone with your chinny chin chin. On the List: 1. Twiggy for a Christmas gift 2. Iris the Gourmet Monster but since it's for a boy I'm calling it Orvil. 3. Great White Shart Shark 4. Bosco - for me 5. Stillhouse Vest - for me 6. Woodsy - for me 7. Three Seahawk themed hats as gifts. 8. Gifts for friends... and on and on and on If you...

Finished Object

I'm not good at keeping surprises a secret...I get so excited that I usually blow it. Well not this time... I knit this sweater for Bump and had the buttons custom madefor it by Buttons by Robin, a wonderful shop on Etsy... She used a photo of Rupert that I emailed her...Rupert is their (Bump, C & M's) family dog... I couldn't post a photo until they had received the sweater which arrived on their doorstep last night... Oh how I wish I could have been there when they got it! It turned out amazing! Pattern: Baby Sophisticate Yarn: Big tweedy Cashmere (lucky boy) Please check out Robin's shop on Etsy I know you'll find buttons you love and she does amazing work!

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?
