…or, “How they get you”.
I can’t believe it’s been 2 weeks since we went to New York City! I can barely get my head above water since I have 3 kids in very little camp, and lots of work! I have been knitting regularly, though.
We had a very nice trip, where I brought one […]
Oh, oops, I mean “You Don’t Mess with the Zohan”. Yes, I went to my last (for the most part) unsupervised (by kids) movie for the summer. I had no interest at all to see this movie, but then I saw a trailer and it looked pretty funny, so I ended up seeing it. Like […]
I don’t necessarily want to be associated with this unlucky number, but so far in Ali’s list of participants in her “summer knitting goals” contest, number 13 is empty so I’ll add my goals. Here they are:
1) Finish at least A.’s socks and 2 of my unfinished sweaters (I’m thinking the tank I just started, […]
I am really happy that I’ve had nonstop work for 2-3 weeks (I work at home and am only loosely guided by deadlines, so I don’t ever really get time off, if there’s work, I should be doing it, even now at 9:45 pm.) but boy am I busy! I have spent some time […]
Besides the fact that I have no interest in ever knitting a sock again and that I’m busy working on sweaters I have started (and started a new one, for no good reason), duty calls.
The last time I went to Portland, you might remember I bought this yarn:
from Abundant Yarn and Dyeworks. Well, my friend […]
Not literally, as I’m using wool, but aargh!!!
I was done with my sweater. I had sewn in the ends. I went into my yarn closet looking for 2 buttons, and alas, one more ball of Knit Picks Palette!!!! I was so happy to be done with this sweater and this yarn, and now […]
I really wanted to go to the movies this week because I’m kind of addicted, and I have a long way to go on my Elsebeth Lavold Silky Wool sweater (I’m almost done with my Palette sweater, however, and need to finish the 2nd sleeve on my Classic Elite Venue sweater - leaving me with […]
Sure, I’ve been busy with work and bringing kids to the doctor this week, but when I heard the new Harold and Kumar movie was coming out on Friday, I had to see it!
On Friday I was driving when I heard a film critic give it 1 1/2 stars. I was disappointed, but I […]
Shhh… I went to the movies again. Yes, two days in a row. But Thursday night I realized that Forgetting Sarah Marshall was opening on Friday, and I didn’t have any official plans, so how could I say no?
I didn’t have as many opinions about this movie as I did about “Speed Kings” but […]
I went to see the movie “Speed Kings” today, with Keanu Reeves, Forrest Whittaker, Hugh Laurie, etc. I really liked it. The first interesting thing I noticed is when I usually watch movies alone during a weekday I am surrounded by older couples, or just all older women. One or two housewives, too. […]
