…go round and round. The CFL record breaking sock knitting continues apace.
Here’s where I left off after this morning’s commute. I included the first sock in the picture so you wouldn’t think that I did something so underhanded and show the first sock’s pictures again
I know. The stripes don’t match. They’re about 4 rows off of each other. I’m fine with it. Really. I am. You can see my crafty homemade Star Trek mousepad peeking out from under the socks. A couple or six years ago I was at a computer show (yeah I go to those as well as Trek Conventions as well as fiber fairs ) and saw blank mousepads. I remembered the nifty inkjet printer with the iron-on transfer printer paper and went to town. I wasn’t selling them so I didn’t step all over the mighty Paramount’s franchise rights. Not like they were selling Voyager mousepads anyway!
…anyway for the first time in a while I did NO knitting after getting the twins down. I actually fell asleep on the couch watching tv last night. I was so tired. Tuesday night I had had trouble falling asleep and then tossed and turned well into the night. The hobbling around during the day leaves me a bit tired as well. I plunked down on the couch and after catching NASA’s update on CSPAN (with a side trip to the internet to find out what STS-300 was), I fell asleep in front of Mythbusters.
Tonight will have minimal non-bus knitting as the monkeys and I are going home. Two weeks later. Staples delivered the digital scale I ordered so I can Click’n'Ship the packages that I planned on doing two weeks ago. I was actually heading for Staples when I missed that step. So everyone expecting a package from me, including my Secret Pal victim who doesn’t know who the heck I am, will be getting one shortly. I’ll also finally get a chance to unpack my new Hitchhiker wheel with the two drive ratios! I’ll have to pack the old one back up and send it back (the little direct drive wheel had a malfunction). Woo. Yay me.
I also hope to do some more stash documentation. I spent a while yesterday while waiting on something at the office, using Excel and my email stash documenting my yarn stash. All the yarns blogged about since March, with the exception of some sock yarn and the stuff purchased at Maryland, I have some 22 miles of yarn. Scary scary thought. I’m pretty sure I missed some things, like the supplies for the super secret baby gift, not to mention some odd skeins I never blogged. I don’t have to hide yarn purchases from a SO, but I do from ya’ll
Okay batch job is finished. Gotta go.
Craft on!
