Ya know, if I’d remember to charge the darned thing then things like this wouldn’t happen!

When I was at the fiber fest this past weekend I purchased something off of my wish list…my "gotta have" list….  2 skeins of Socks that Rock!!!!!!  I finally got around to taking a photo today but as I was downloading the pictures the camera lost it’s last bit of juice.  So, it’ll have to wait until the little guy gets his energy back.

I’ve been working on the cut-out cardi.  I finished the left front and I’m planning on casting on the right front tomorrow.  I’m also working on sock #2 of the crooked cable socks.  I’ve finished the heel and gusset decreases.  Now I’m just knitting and knitting and knitting to get this thing big enough for my freakishly long foot. (I wear a size 10 1/2 shoe also known as "clown shoes").

I keep hearing lots of claims of doom and gloom from local weather wonks.  Threats of sub-zero wind chills etc BUT NO SNOW.  Now, I’m sorry.  If it gets that kinda cold there darn well better be some snow on the ground or I’m gonna be writin’ somebody a letter!!!!!!!!!!! 

What I’m not sure about is whether all of this bad weather is going to be hitting Enumclaw.  Usually we’re about 5 to 10 degrees cooler than the towns over by the sound.  But the temps on T.V. make it seem like the really bad wind chills, etc will be closer to the water.  But….. I’ve only lived here for 2 weeks….what the heck do I know?!!??  I do hear the wind kickin’ up outside but I’m not stickin’ my nose out there to see what the temp is like!  Even if Enumclaw doesn’t get all of the bad stuff, we’re goin’ to have to deal with it anyway.  AG and I have to drive into Kent tomorrow for therapy and then we’re all going into Kent again tomorrow night. 

Well, must go lounge in the tub.  I’m still reading the David Rakoff book but to be quite honest, I’m having to force myself to finish it.  I always enjoyed seeing him in interviews or listening to him on NPR but I’m just not enjoying this book at all.  So much so that I may soon stop forcing myself and just give up!  We’ll see.

Toodles!
