Can I just say that I LOVE Ravelry ?

Lookeee!!!!

Date: May 22, 2009
Yarn:  50g Fingering weight 100% wool from MeiMei
Dye:  Generic store brand drink mix in grape
Fixer: Vinegar (plus citric acid in drink mix) and heat from sitting in my car on the dashboard.

Oh, lord.  I’m going through withdrawal.

My apartment explodes with yarn and cat hair.

I think my boyfriend may hit the breaking point soon.

I knit.  I crochet.  And then give things away.

…..vague…..Girl…..

Okay.

Maybe I just sound crazy or wacked or just plain silly.  But I have so many ideas in my head that I want to do that it overwhelms me and i end up eating ice cream and watching reruns of NCIS.

So many things swimming in my mind.
Sometimes I just don’t know.

• Raw food diets for my cats? I’m just trying to get them on wet food first.
• Do I open a shop on etsy?  Do I not?
• Where should I send all of these hats I’ve made?
• Time to pick out a new WP theme?
• I need to win the lottery.
• Must write down patterns.
• Must photo work and WIPs.
• A new camera would be nice.
• Catalog yarn.  Now.
• Needles coming out of my ears.
• Can I get a line of credit at KnitPicks like at the Casinos?
• Why are recycled/organic/natural (the real kind, not the faked out kind) things so expensive?
• Will my cats ever get along?
• Will my brain ever stop working in questions?

mmmmmMMmmmmmm…..

I have to go clean the kitchen now so we can rearrange and I can have my dyeing/sewing station…  : )

Three things of three things:

1. Pain sucks – drugs can help – some doctors are worth it
2. Not enough time – too much yarn – don’t have the right needles !
3. Plastics suck – ReusableBags.com rocks – Some people are working on it…

It’s one day ’til my birthday which means it’s two weeks and one two day[s] ’til Christmas.

‘Nuff said.

At least I’ve finished my traveling scarves so I won’t hold anyone else up!  And I made myself a pair of socks that I love.  Toe-up, two-at-a-time, magic circle and picked from several tutorials/patterns/guides.  I almost want to wear them before weaving in the ends!!!

I think I’ve lost it again.  Perhaps I won’t even try to find it again this time.
