Yeah, me too. Brutal week, yes? I realize it was a new moon on Monday but that was not a good enough reason for the level of general weirdness I was encountering daily out there in the world. But that’s all behind us now. It’s Friday and it’s all good. How good? Well, this is my dinner:
Best dinner in the world! Pot noodle (Ichiban, Mr. Noodles, your regional instant noodle soup name inserted here) with broccoli, carrot, and some thinly sliced leftover beef kebab. Nom, nom, nom! I swear, I could eat this every night of the week. Okay, maybe a break here and there for some fried rice or the occassional butter chicken. Oh man, I’m eating dinner and I’m making myself hungry!
Anyway, the papa had a little surgery of a nature I”m pretty sure he wouldn’t want me sharing here. Yes, he reads the blog sometimes. Hi Dad! He’s doing really well and should be home tomorrow. Be nice to Mom! Men make the worst patients.
I’ve been getting ready for the WIP’s Wrestlemania (Rav link) on Ravelry for the month of July. I think I’m being overly ambitious though. I’ve put up four projects that I want to finish, one of them is the Almost Safety Orange Featherweight cardigan in Malabrigo lace weight. Seriously! What am I thinking that I’ll finish that AND three other projects in one month? Meh, hope springs eternal.
I’ve also been sewing lately. I was inspired by the lovely Plae and her super cute fairy bag that she brought to our knitting group last week. Go have a look at it. I’ll wait here. See! adorable, right?
I’ve got one blouse cut out and I’ll be sewing that up tomorrow. I had to get lightweight fusible interfacing today. Look at all those weird words. Yet another new language I’ll have to learn. I’ll let you in on a little secret though, I could absolutely break the bank buying sewing patterns! They are like potato chips, you can’t have just one!
Okay, that’s me done. Y’all have a wonderful Friday night. Avoid the weirdness, unless you’re the cause of it of course.

Hmmm…I’ve been seeing a lot of knitters being seduced into playing with fabric. I think I can resist for now, but maybe this winter???
Glad your dad is on the mend. Parents being unwell can be so stressful!

It’s not the patterns that get me, it’s the fabric. I used to have a fabric stash that would rival my yarn. And it’s growing again. What are you sewing? I’ll show you mind if you’ll show me yours!
(After knitting for a few years, sewing is going to seem like instant gratification…oh yeah!)

Feel better soon, Tammy’s dad!
I should join up…I want to knit socks. Lots of socks.

Glad to hear your father’s operation went well!
As for the sewing…I think even I might be somewhat interested. It’s like the freaking Borg…

This week was insane-o. Just ask the thursday night knitting group who had to escort me out of Starbucks. I’m intrigued by this WIP wrestlemania. Happy thoughts to your papa! Wheeee for sewing!

Yay for sewing & finishing WIPs.
