Ponderings

As I near completion of my 10th dish cloth in 3 days, I realize that I am quickly going to run out of my stash of dishcloth cotton long before the mystery shawl Knit-A-Long that I am so eagerly awaiting begins. Then I will have no ‘mindless knitting’ projects left, to use as a break from the lace.

This means that I need to find something else to work on in the mean time.  As I was mentioning that I don’t want to work on the sweater that is half done and sitting on my desk, cause it is to a stage that I can no longer work in the round, one of the wonderful ladies in my local Stitch and Bitch group suggested I steek it.
This has possibilities… But the thought. of cutting. your. knitting… on purpose… *sigh* suck it up. I think I am going to do it.. now I just have to sit down and do the planning so that it will work out. Then I can get it off my project list.. and my desk.

Where did I put that original pattern??

plug it in!

I tried to call my husband while I was out today. Was gonna have him make sure dd2 had brushed out her hair, and was waiting for me, so I could just pick her up and take her to school. Unfortunately, there was something wrong with his phone, and I couldn’t get a hold of him… so I came home, got her ready and took her to school, dropping a comment about something being wrong with his phone (and knowing what it was, but not saying so) when he comments.. “it is dead” um… yeah, that is something wrong all right… but why is it dead??? Cause he can’t be bothered to plug it in till it is dead!! We have 2 cords in the house to plug the phone in… and he has a jack in his car, that he is in AT LEAST an hour a day, if he would just plug the phone in for his commute, it would never be dead, and would stay  fully charged (our phones charge really fast) but NOOO… that would be like… intelligent! *sigh* just frustrated with men who can’t do anything for themselves!
