For anyone considering buying a wheel, I highly recommend it. I know I’ve been using a borrowed wheel for the past *cough* year now, but having a wheel of your own? Is awesome.

I also highly recommend buying on at a fiber festival. Because when you buy a wheel at a fiber festival? People treat [...]

A year’s worth of fiber

OH I am tired. So tired. This weekend was so fun and so…um…expensive. But fun! And that’s what counts.

I concentrated mainly on fiber for this SAFF. I only purchase one skein of yarn the entire weekend – woohoo! Restraint! But fiber…ohhhh, so much fiber.

What? errr, ignore that. Fiber! SO much goodness!

My condo is clean, my yarn is plied, my knitting bag is packed, there’s a pan of brownies cooling on the counter, and a Birmingham knitter snoring softly on the other side of my couch. Except for my clothes not being packed yet…I AM READY!

I’m going here.

I should be taking care of this

but instead? I’m doing this

working my CORE

So aside from horrible, terrible, gut-wrenching church drama, OTHER interesting and and even funny things have been happening to me!

Tuesday I had an appointment with my chiropractor, and he showed me how to do some stretches and excercises that would help strengthen my core muscles. Every single one? Overtly sexual – much humping and [...]

The lord bless and keep you

I am so pissed and upset right now, I can hardly even type this. No, it’s not about the debate or anything political…for once.

My church, my beloved santuary of peace and sanity in a turmultuous world, has blown up in a drama so shocking that it has literally broken my heart.

Those that know [...]

Oh yeah!

Kev has discovered my secret stash of kool-aid packets – the ones I bought to dye yarn with but never got around to doing it. There is every flavor of kool-aid there – cherry, strawberry, pink lemonade, lime, blue raspberry, etc. EVERY flavor! Every possible delicious interesting flavor of kool-aid.

ESC: we have to have [...]

Anniversary celebratory bonanza time!

We decided to celebrate our anniversary yesterday with a trip up to Helen, GA. For those who are not from Georgia, Helen is a town that was apparently designed by someone who saw a bavarian town in a Hallmark card once. Lots of bavarian style buildings, oompa-music, menus with lots of [...]

back: is BETTER. I have been off the celebrex all week. no pain, and I have most of my range of movement back. I’ll probably see the chiropractor a few more times, but that’s it – whatever it was, arthritis, pinched nerve, alien implantation gone horribly wrong – seems to have resolved itself for the [...]

anniversary time

men should take advantage of the lack of dress code rules set for guys and wear mini skirts and tank tops to school every day

OH MY GOD LAST YEAR THE DUDES ON MY CLASS HAVE DONE IT

AND THEY GOT ALL CALLED IN THE PRINCIPAL’S ROOM

BUT THEY DIDNT GOT IN TROUBLE BECAUSE

THEY SAID EXACTLY IT “BUT THOSE RULES ARE ONLY FOR GIRLS”

I’M NOT EVEN JOKING

My brother, Aaron, did this once. The principal called my mom to let her know her son wore a skirt to school. My mom said “Well? Is it against the rules?”

The principal got flustered and said, that, well no, it’s not, but that it was causing a distraction and that was against the rules. Mom wanted to know if she needed to bring him clothes to change into, and the principal said no, Aaron had worn shorts under the skirt, so he just had to take the skirt off.

So mom finally asked “Well then why did you call me???” The principal didn’t really have a good answer to that one.

Sadie: I HAVE TO GO OUT
Me: What? You just peed an hour ago. And it's pouring down rain out there.
Sadie: I HAVE TO POOP
Me: You hate the rain.
Sadie: I HAVE TO POOP NOW
Me: OK then.
Me: *later, at her pooping spot, in the rain*
Sadie: I NO LONGER HAVE TO POOP
Me: What? You were DESPERATE to go, five minutes ago.
Sadie: I DON'T LIKE THE RAIN. I DON'T HAVE TO POOP.
Me: I am not falling for this. 10 minutes inside, and you'll be crying to go out again.
Sadie: NO I WON'T.
Me: We are staying out here until you poop.
Sadie: I HATE YOU
