One Dawn sock finished and another started. The sour patch watermelon candies are the exact same color as the yarn! Haven't been feeling good because my thyroid levels are messed up again. The Doc gave me some different medicine to go along with what I already have. Hopefully this will get this balanced out where I can feel human again. Haven't felt like doing anything lately...not even knitting...which is a tragedy in itself! Tootles!
Be My Valentine Charlie Brown Sock Kit!
Got this package in today. I ordered some patterns from Loopy Ewe (still not here yet) and ordered this yarn from Woolgirl for them. The bright one is called California Poppy (yes bought it because of the name) and the other is Smooshy (just had to try it)! Also got some of the Soak stuff and she also sent me trials of the other scents because I have never used them. She is the greatest...she is my local yarn shop (even though she's in Oregon and I'm in CA). I also got a little sheep stitch marker and she sent me a beautiful heart stitch marker too. Woolgirl is the greatest! Super fast shipping, super helpful through email...just love her!
Yesterday had to go get my bloodwork done for my endocrinologist. Next went to Valencia for Jimmy's dentist appt....took two hours because the dentist was really busy...ugh...then we went to Red Robin for lunch....walked the mall...came back to town and went to our mall...picked up my meds at the pharmacy and home. Had a great time...we were both exhausted from walking two malls! But when I pulled up at the gate lookie what I found...my namaste purse I ordered and my clear clogs came. Love the purse...its quite bigger than I thought but hey more room for knittin stuff and the kitchen sink :). Not sure about the clogs...they're really tight and with them being plastic they're not going to stretch...so in love with the idea of them but...I've been so used to wearing crocs that I don't know if thats why they feel tight. I'll try them again around the house before I decide if I'm sending them back and get more crocs!:) Working on the heel of the Dawn socks...Very excited...my grandma wants me to teach her how to knit dishcloths! Told her we'd get together have tea in my new tea set and I'd show her how. So cool!
Started another pair of toe ups and then I'm going to add a lace panel from the Lesley socks to the ankle part. Kind of doing my own thing with these, a little bit of this...a little bit of that. This beautiful yarn is from my TN buddy, Dawn. Hence the name Dawn Socks! These are being done on itty, bitty, teeny, weeny size 0 needles! Ouch!:) Just ordered the clear clogs...these will look so pretty in them!
Hubby found this Desert Kangaroo Rat while he was using the backhoe. He first put it in a bucket with towels because he said it looked cold...then he moved it off our property where there are lots of creosote bushes so he can be a happy rat. They live in holes under these bushes....they don't drink water....they eat seeds....live for 4-5 years....not endangered here yet but in other places they are.
