First I want to show you my booty bag!

Arrrr it's a muffin pan booty! I LOVE how this turned out, it's just the right size for a purse. I love it and I love that all I had to buy was the black wool, the colored was from my STASH!
I'm going to start trying to whip out more of my poncho now. OH and guess what? Uh huh, you're going to have to wait until later when I can get some more photos uploaded.... I got my SOCKAPALOOZA SOCKS!!!!! YES I DID! They fit, they're soft, they're snuggly, they're bright and cheerful, and oh I'm so in love with them! I have to sneak over with my tail between my legs and tell my pal that I can't get hers in the mail until Wednesday. Though of course they have been done, but I had to wait for a check to clear to have the moola and now I need to get the time.

Anyway, Nova, they're totally freakin' awesome loveliness! I got homemade Fancy Feet sock blockers to go with them AND two bags of Wasabi Macadamia Nuts... boy you know one of those bags are gone right? Yep. LOVE THEM! Now I'm going to crave something I probably will never find here hee hee hee. Sooooo cool! Soooo totally awesome cool groovy rock my world kick arse! Yes! I took photos... I'll post them later for more of a tease. I'm so mean I know! Peace.

Quick it's late

and I've had too much wine once again.

I have like 4 hours left on the last sockapalooza sock and I've managed to knit most of a bag that I will felt when done. It's awesome and has a skull and crossbones on it. I really wanted to get it done before school tomorrow but LOL it's no where near. Have about four inches left to do of the sides and the bottom plus four feet of 8 stitch I-cord. You all know how much I'm looking forward to THAT right? Not! I had to buy one ball of black wool to do this but otherwise it's been a knit from my stash project. I've done really well with the knit from your stash thing, I've only bought three balls of yarn. Ok, maybe more, but I'm a bit foggy right now.

Suz, I'm glad you are back online, I've missed you and I wish it would have worked out to come and visit you but it just didn't on my end either. So knit on my fine duckies! (((hugs)))

Always find ways to procrastinate....

This was an earring I had, I lost the mate to it and I thought it would look nice on my shrunken head. I really want a bone but the ring will have to do until I find one I like.
This is the one I made for my car. I also would like a ring or a bone in it's nose also. I don't even notice him anymore now that he's hanging there LOL. Still, it was a fun knit.
This is the lesson plan unit I'm procrastinating working on at the moment. I went and spent 3 hours at the family picnic at Bishop Lake today working at a totally seperate table set away from everyone and finally just could not stand the idea that I was having to write everything down and I'd still have to come back and type it up. Well, my oldest wanted to go swimming really bad so I had Karl drive me home and he gathered up bathing suits and here I sit, type a bit of what I have to, procrastinate a bit here, type a bit more... you get the idea. It's getting done. And of course my hair is boring me again so I was thinking about growing it long again... then I looked up this photo and well....
I like it short still. Maybe this next time I will be able to get the girl I like the most (you think I've ever heard of appointments? LOL) and have her put highlights in it or something. It's just a backlash from not feeling any stability in my life right now, or something along those lines.
Well, it's back to the old plate tectonics again. Have a happy Memorial Day peeps. Peace.

First day of classes and.....

What the hell did I get myself into? ROFL This is going to be tough. My prof for Biology is a frickin' riot! The dude makes everything come back to sex, seriously, and that makes him my kind of man! Though I believe he may have a partner and not a wife so I don't want any snarky comments ya hear? Dudes, he's old enough to be my dad, yuck. Lab is going to be so much more fun than Chemistry lab and this is after our first one being nothing but statistic math crap. Tomorrow is Bio Lecture and my other class, a curriculum class.

Christopher almost has all his hair and then I have to make the I-cord for the handle. I think he's going to be my cell phone or tissue holder and I'm going to hang him off my Born to Knit yellow messenger bag. Those shrunken heads are so easy to knit up that I think I'm going to have a hard time not making more, but how many do I really need? I have to stop for now though. Top Secret Project for Jess and socks. In between reading and doing lab reports???? Again, ROFLMAO at my own stupidity. This would be just as hard if my personal life wasn't so messed up so I can't blame that. Enough. I can do it. Peace.

Quick update before running off to class.

This is Christopher and what I got done last night and this morning. He's really shaping up nicely eh? Oh how I've giggled! I just love these shrunken head bags so much!!! I hope I can get him done today because I have an itchy idea that I'm going to be spending a tremendous amount of time reading a really huge, uncomfy in the lap, biology book. Have a great day and, ummm, keep your head.... LOL that was bad I know.
And this cutie patootie? It's her birthday! Five years ago I was in the hospital getting induced to evict her from her home. Boy the crap that has happened since her birth! A move, new schools, college, two different jobs, and a distroyed marriage. It never ceases to amaze me what can happen so quickly. She is the light of my life and her and her bro's just make it so worth going on for. Horray for offspring and siblings! Love. These. Kids! Peace dudes.

So I couldn't wait!

This is my new man in my life. Not only is he quiet and holds stuff for me but he was also knit from my stash. It was so easy and fun and wicked cool that I'm making a second one. Also with left over yarn.
The first one isn't named yet but this second one, the pasty white one? He's Christopher, as in Columbus. This is what SHOULD have happened..... Ok, anyway, Christopher is a bit smaller than the first one because he's a different weight yarn, same needles, same pattern from here. Classes start again tomorrow so there probably won't be a whole lot going on again. *sigh* Peace.

My next little project!!!!

I am SO going to make this as soon as I can squeak a weekend in!

went and saw Eragon today

But first, here's my MP3 player bag that kind of looks like a sad willy warmer and needs a button. LOL, but hey, my earphone cord should be kept nice now.


Woke to find an icy winter wonderland today. It's simply beautiful outside, especiallly since the roads are A-OK.

Ok, on to Eragon. Excellent movie! If you go into it knowing that the movie won't be as good as the books (which rock by the way) then you're really going to love this one. Murtagh, Garrett Hedlund, played Patroclus in Troy with Brad Pitt. Normally a really nice looking kid, as Murtagh? Holy sheep shit I want. Kind of like Orlando Bloom, nice looking normally, but as Legolas? Damn. Yeah, I've got a new crush. Ok. Lights are flickering so I'm going to post this just in case the ice takes the power out. Peace!

Knit From Your Stash 2007!

Ok, from Teylas site, who got this from Wendys site:
Kat's Guidelines:
1. The Knit-From-Your-Stash-a-Thon will start January 1, 2007 and run through September 30, 2007 -- a period of nine months.
2. I will not buy any yarn during that period, with the following exceptions:
2.a. If someone asks for a specific knitted gift that I really and truly do not have the yarn for, I may buy yarn to knit that gift.
2.b If I am knitting something and run out of yarn, I may purchase enough to complete the project.
2.c. I get one "Get Out of Jail Free" card -- I am allowed to fall off the wagon one time.
3. I am allowed to receive gifts of yarn. (Please take note of this LOL!)

I know, laugh if you will, but I never want to have more yarn than my little two shelves can hold and I'm close to that point. Plus I need to focus on the projects I have and NOT start a new one! I'm such a ho when it comes to projects I swear, I love the thrill of the "new" relationship it offers LOL. This year I need to tie-up the loose ends of all my on going relationships. Boy do I have a list of them too! Oooh but a challenge is almost as good as a new project! How brave are you?
