Fridays…fry days…fry daze

Why is Friday ALWAYS insane?
Puh-leeze. I’m supposed to be enjoying the week coming to an end!
I remember when I used to be much less important (stop laughing!) and the other poor slaves and I would gather around and talk about fun stuff like relationships (granted this was a long time ago…when relationships WERE still [...]

1 Hormone addled brain + 1 six-year old boy =2 temper tantrums

His and mine. I don’t know why I’m so impatient with Alex lately but he’s driving me absolutely crazy.
I hate six-year olds. I really really do.
Six year olds are old enough to realize what pisses them off but still too mentally disorganized to manage it properly.
No, that’s not it entirely.
He’s gone from being [...]

Its here!

…and I picked it up last night…and its SO cool and SO frustrating!!! Takes the whole concept of rubbing your stomach while patting your head to a whole new level. And if I hadn’t already had this issue, and overcome it, with the spindle I would be ready to throw in the towel [...]

Hungry…and getting really impatient

Nothing new there…just the usual state of affairs. Fortunately I’m surrounded by pregnant women at work and they are ALWAYS hungry (or nauseous) so I don’t seem like a total freak of nature.
I just fell in love with this pattern and trying to figure out if there are any fuzzy non-wool/mohair yarns I could use. [...]

Is it art?

Yesterday I went to an art festival with my dad. It was pretty okay I suppose but I get tired of Group of Seven-inspired landscapes and if I saw another giant blown-up daffodil/tulip/generic flower painting I swear I was going to run out of there screaming for mercy.
Overall…my opinion was that there CAN be too [...]

Dental therapy

So if yesterday was all about my head, today is unfortunately all about my teeth. Specifically the first molar on the top left.
It has a cavity.
Notice that I do not have the cavity. Because I prefer to feel that this is a situation that was imposed upon me by vengeful dental gods and [...]

Kitten therapy

Damn it…must frog.
Yup – Alex’s colour block sweater front is an inch short…actually there’s more wrong with it than than that…and I need to figure out how the hell I’m going to deal with it…
I wish I had a camera to show how ridiculously off it all is, but I don’t. Basically I need [...]

Am I going grey too?

I’ve been away from the blog…but busy. I love me a four day weekend! Last week was a bit nuts at work, and this week won’t be any better but I’m hoping that with some rest and time away, some of my co-workers will be less cranky. Wayyyy less cranky. Cause…well…lets not [...]

Spinster

Up until now I’ve been a spindler-ster…but I’m about to go and test drive some spinning wheels! I am so stoked.
My credit card is quietly crying in my purse but until it wails loudly I’m going to ignore it.
Last night I did some ’sperimenting with dye. I bought Colour in Spinning (Deb Menz [...]
