Purple

Purple fingernails! Yes, I am that desperate for blog ideas. That and I think this is a really cute color.

Crazy New Year

Recently I took on 15 credits at school. That is insane. I have NO idea what possessed me to say "hey I'll take on 3 full on classes this quarter *click*"

With this load, I have had so many migraines that axert and vicodin have been used in excess. This goes agents my personal goal to talk about my migraines less (due to a friend's "comments") but it goes with what's going on right now.

I have not had time to knit! I feel terrible! It's like a drug... need to get my fix! Plus I have projects to get done... :/

Crazy.

First post of the new year! Happy New Year everyone!

Christmas Migraine

Sometimes I notice I'll ignore the fact I have a migraine. Not ignore the pain, god no. How can you? No, I mean I just deal with it and almost hope that it will just go away if I try to ignore it. Like when you're training a baby to sleep on it's own and it cries for the first few nights, you ignore those cries even though you are very aware they're there.

Christmas left me with this one and I have to say it's the WORST christmas gift I have ever received.

--- --- ---

Working on a scarf for Shay, but it's going slowly due to migraine. Then I have a TON of baby items to make for so many of my friends that are having babies. Soooo many babies. That itself is enough for a migraine.

Trees

It's been wonderful. Decorating that is. Mom and I had an agreement that involved me a decorating her house for christmas. But there's only 2 trees! TWO!!! The main one and the ballerina one.

The picture is the one that I have at home. I decorated it with Totty. Since she's four and her grandma got her a ton of ornaments to decorate the tree with we did just that. However some in the house are saying it's too decorated. What do you think? I think it's just fine!

Baby Knits

Today I found out that the majority of my girl friends are having children. Holy crap! How many booties should I make now? 8? 14? I feel dizzy. And need soft yarn. I feel dizzy and need soft yarn. So many babies. This is why I request all of my ladies to post as many pictures as you can on facebook so I can see them! Love to see them! Babies everywhere.

The sock is finished and so is a scarf. Half way threw another and need to start a hat. THEN I will be done with my christmas knitting. Just booties for babies, or socks, need soft yarn- have I mentioned that? Sorry no pictures!

Not knitting nearly as much as I want, school and all. Plus nothing happens to me much. I visit my nieces and nephew often, but never seem to get pictures- it could be due to the fact my digital camera is broken. My cell camera still works, but it's not as good as my digital. First my digital camera brakes, then my printer. technology hates me. I knit there when I'm not doing homework or talking with the family. It's really nice to spend time with them.

Now to figure out tonights homework and this thanksgiving schedule.

Schooooooooool

Yup. We all knew school would consume my life. So another apology, however between studying I've been knitting and venting with playing Sims (both Sims3 and Sims Medieval). Oh yes, I've been updating my amazon wish list in case anyone is interested. ;)

A week ago, well almost a week ago, on Sunday, I couldn't really breath so Neil took me to the ER. They told me it was "Pleurisy" "-an inflammation and swelling of he lining of the lungs. Because of this inflammation, it hurts to breathe." The doc only gave me a LOT of pain killers that I don't like but it's better to breath and feel funny foggy in the head. I am glade it's not painkillers that would make me happy- I'm terrified of getting addicted to them and being an addict.

School, knitting, sims, tea, twitter, gaia, and hulu. That is what I do. :) Nothing amazingly special, but it's school, things aren't going to be terribly interesting in the beginning.

FOUND!!!

Found it, found it, found it!!! Since then I've been doing my best to work on it at every possible chance, between homework assignments (on my breaks). I am determined to get this sock done well before this month is done so I can work on other christmas/winter holiday projects.

School is stressful, but not as bad now that I'm beginning to get used to it. I'm hoping that as it goes the stress will decline more. So far it's proven right. Though I am a bit disappointed. I got my calender mixed up a bit; I thought that October 11th was no classes, but it turns out November 11th is the day. Kinda a disappointment since I have to pick dad up at the airport tomorrow.

So that's me in a nutshell right now!

Missing

MY SOCK IS MISSING!!! I have been searching EVERYWHERE for it! I have started school and now can't look for it. There are only so many places a sock in progresses can hide. Seriously, where in the world is it? Could I have left it at the convention center?! Oh shit. I just thought of that... I think that's the last place I had it. T_T This is terrible. The yarn shop where I got the yarn for the socks is no longer in business (sad panda) so I only have one sock of one color. I need to find that other sock that's half done.

School has started. >_< It's been... fun. Yah, lets go with fun. We all know it was going to be stressful going in, so it's not a surprise to know there's stress. I have to say that it's really fun too. The bags are heavy and killing my back and my hips are bugging me a bit, but the walking around is good exercise (sp?)! Quarters, I need more quarters for parking. Or a parking pass. If money wasn't tight I would get one and save my back from harsh wakings with heavy bags. Seriously, terrible terrible pains. My body is protesting violently, at times I feel like throwing up along the way to my car the pain is so bad. I make stops along the way to rest but that only seems to make it worse. Either way I need to get something figured out.

There be no progress pictures up of my sock because it's MISSING and there is no picture of anything new because school has started and my time is very limited. Well, that and I have no idea what I should do next, I'm open to new ideas. Send them my way! A new scarf, baby booties (oh yeah, I need to make a pair of those), a canoe, anything you can think of that is within reason, wrist warmers, a mini cloud... keep those creative ideas open!

Windshield Rain

Here we are, driving to the con (short for "convention") meeting, and it is starting to rain... on our side of the mountain!!! Our first comments were: the car will finally get washed. Neil seems to be handling the driving rather well.

And here I am in the passenger with my kindle and knitting! Still working on the sock. Taking forever but I'd rather take my time and get it right. Hopefully it will be done before christmas.
