Alternate Disco

      No Comments on Alternate Disco

Today, we received a text message from the school that the school disco that was supposed to occur tonight was cancelled. We were sad — Smallhausen loves going to the school discos. But apparently, last night there were plenty of Friends who were signed up for it, and suddenly none this morning. Rude. So instead, Smalls came home and announced… Read more »

Back From the Pub

      1 Comment on Back From the Pub

I return in one piece from our second Pins & Needles session. Last time wasn’t a fluke — this was also an enjoyable time. I spent most of it yawning, because apparently I relax when I’m out and that means almost falling asleep on myself. Whups. I had three pints of Coke though, so that sort of helps me fight… Read more »

I Have to Give the Bag Back

      No Comments on I Have to Give the Bag Back

One of our newer Stitch ‘n Bitch members, K, was getting rid of some of her wool today. Apparently, this required a Royal Mail bag full, and then a bit more. I made some weak-ass excuses and shoved it into my car. What’s more, everyone who was there when the wool was still in the pub seemed to keep mum… Read more »

A Lovely Day

      No Comments on A Lovely Day

Today we had the Fs around, now with less accidental drama. *chuckles* The kids played together well, and the closest thing to an incident is that Littlerbit apparently turned on the outside tap. We figured it out fairly quickly though, and before they could flood the yard or drown themselves. We were also watching the Tottenham versus Manchester City match,… Read more »

Moving On

      No Comments on Moving On

As of today, I can declare my green top completed. The knitting is done, the sewing in is done; the only task remaining is to sew in one of my made by me labels. I’ve got it tucked up on my desk to do tomorrow ’cause I cannot be bothered today. Instead, I’m working on trying to finish off my… Read more »

Pins & Needles

      No Comments on Pins & Needles

This is a quick one on the top of a successful inaugural session of a new knitting group; C and T have named it ‘Pins & Needles’, which is as apt as Stitch ‘n Bitch is. It was a new location with a few new faces, but mainly it was the same old crew in a new location, but now… Read more »

Goo

      No Comments on Goo

My brain is an exhausted wreck right now. I found out earlier that a dear friend was hospitalised, and the sources of information on it were really sketchy and made me believe that it had not been of her own choice. I wasn’t the only one; a lot of her community is online and none of us had gotten it… Read more »

Registered

I keep seeing friends on Facebook posting via magic wossit that they are registered to vote. I presume it’s something that pops up if you use Facebook on your phone (I generally don’t), so here’s my announcement. The timing is apt, as I am currently watching last night’s debate. I spotted that it was on the BBC News, so why… Read more »

Eh, Stuff

      No Comments on Eh, Stuff

We’ve had company today, hooray! Which means I’ve not thought about blogging, but rather, have been enjoying said company. There’s been knitting, and gaming, good food, and getting told off by Smallhausen for laughing too loud. The gaming that has filled in most of the day have been various Jackbox games. Z had bought a couple in a bundle because… Read more »

Serenity Is…

      No Comments on Serenity Is…

Serenity is finally having my desk chipped back to something resembling tidy. The area is still sort of overgrown more than I like, but I’ll take Z’s suggestion and we can get another set of drawers to stack on the ones the wool are atop of in the corner. I’d declined it when he’d suggested it earlier, joking that it… Read more »
