Fashion Kitty

      No Comments on Fashion Kitty

Amazingly, I put stickers on a cat without being murdered. I was picking them off of the couch where Littler had put them, so I put one on Batman. He didn’t really move, so I did it a few more times. I presume that Z helped him get them off after I dashed off to bed. At least most of… Read more »

You Guessums

Today’s picture comes compliments of photographer Littlerbit… your guess as to what it could be is as good as mine. I suspect that it’s the brown couch next to me, as it has a red blanket on it. That would explain a picture mainly filled with red, along with whatever nausea-inducing blurriness that fills the rest of the space. >__>… Read more »

While it still has a ways to go before it’s fully complete, I finished the body of Z’s jumper today. I didn’t expect to be knitting this afternoon, but E dropped in to hang out for a few hours. He confirms that the fit is where he wanted it, so hooray. We also conferred on what colour to do the… Read more »

Grudging

Yes, this face is a grumpy face, sort of. I took a bath, grudgingly, and came out of it feeling really sick and headache-y. Like, overheated? I know I like a hot bath, but I am hella confused by the feeling overheated thing. I chucked some caffeine and paracetamol at it, and am currently trying to make sure I’ve got… Read more »

I was very happy last night, as I met my desired knitting goal — I finished the half of the front I was working on. I also sat down and got the second half mathed out, so I’ve managed a few rows of that today. I don’t know what my knitting end goal for today is at this point, but… Read more »

I figured I was overdue in showing a progress picture, so here you go. I’m only a few rows to go before I’m done doing the decreases on this side of the neck/shoulder, and then it’s just straight pattern until I hit the right number of rows completed (275; I’m currently about to start row 237). It should be pretty… Read more »

Table for Four

Today is Z’s birthday. We opted to do a family lunch, which was the first time we’d done one since we were on vacation a few years back. The food was excellent, the girls well behaved, and we’re in agreement that we should all do it again in the near future. We had fun quizzing Littler on shapes and counting,… Read more »

Lulz, Weather

      No Comments on Lulz, Weather

One thing that the UK and Texas have in common is an obsession with the weather. Why? Because the weather is a very random thing, compliments of various geographical features. So I didn’t expect the super storm that blew through last night, and blew an upset Smallhausen into our bed. And I didn’t expect the hail-snow mix that fell this… Read more »

Footrest

      No Comments on Footrest

One thing that I tend to do without thinking about it is use my desktop tower as a footrest. I’ve done it as long as I can remember, and it doesn’t do it any harm. AND — it leads to that hilarious moment when it’s not there where I try to put my feet up and nothing is there. But… Read more »

Seeds

This particular knitting stitch is known as the double seed stitch. It’s a pretty simple thing to do all told, but I definitely do better keeping a rigorous count of what row I’m on. And, to my joy, I’ve done alright enough with that to get to the next colour, which is always yay. I am on the whole feeling… Read more »
