Enough of the June Gloom!!

Unfortunately here in Santa Barbara we are all in deep June Gloom~ nasty, yucky, depressing marine layer. You wouldn’t know that it is June! So needless to say we are all in a bit of a funk. I got some more yarn from Sanfelipe Santiago yesterday. GOt a new book too, spent $30 on the book…I really liked the simple yet fun patterns. Can’t remember the name of the book though. Lame! SO I actually have a little work to do today (other than taking care of 3 munchkins, that is) hence I must go. More later!

I’m lazy, I will admit it!

Okay so I suck & I am lazy! I haven’t done any pictures or sent the poncho out for “special person”‘s bday yet! Lame of me I am sure! SO eventually I will get caught up on all my crap & get my life together again.

On a happy note…George & I got to go to Pismo Beach for the weekend with NO kids! Miraculous!! We stayed at the Cliffs Resort in a suite with an awesome layout. No pics because I was too busy doing other things!   Tracy was kind enough to watch the kids overnight…trooper that she is! It doesn’t hurt that we paid her, we love her!

Tracy & I did something today that we have been wanting to do for a while…kool aid dyeing (sp?). We bought some cheapy fishermans wool (Lion Brand) and used tangerine kool aid on one end & cherry kool aid on the other end. It is in the kitchen sink drying right now. I will go do a pic actually! Okay done! now I will go add them so you all can actually see them!

Reality strikes again~

Okay so the reality that I have too much yarn has struck! So last night I started an afghan for George (my hubby), I worked on the sleeve of my stripey sweater, sewed the handles on my felted striped bag and then just felt guilty for having so much yarn in my stash! So I am now going to start setting aside yarn & patterns together so that when I am ready for some new project I can just grab the one of my choice & go! I am a smart cookie!

Yeah, so I am going now…no really, I am going…..okay so I am lazy & I dont’ want to go do it! It’s much more fun to come up with a great organizational idea than actually act on it & get something accomplished. Fine, I will go do it! I will let y’all know how it turns out! Ciao!
