am i over this flu thing yet? not quite. i think it might be a sinus thing. i know, i know, i need to go to the doctor. what else? headaches. every day headaches. insane nightmares. i had one that i needed an operation, jake left me because he realized that i sucked and wasn’t what he thought i was, and that i had to move in with my mom. not that my mom doesn’t have a really nice new house. i am pretty sure i wouldn’t be able to take 3 cats (actually, i am sure jake would want to keep pavel, and if he didn’t keep him, pavel would kill himself.) and all of my art and fiber stuff. and i would be a 30-something living with my mom. in iowa. oh. no. and now, it must be 2 weeks since my last period because i got it again. i felt like poop all weekend and felt insane, as well. and now, cramps. bad, bad cramps. i know, i need to go to that doctor, too. sigh.

we didn’t get our camera back and i am a bit worried that they will try to give us the same camera and i don’t want it. especially after we had so many problems and other people did as well. so. i haven’t put new photos up or been able to update the site, but i hope to in the next day or so.

i have been spinning a lot, dyeing a lot and had to reskein a bunch of sock yarn to get it ready to send out to a yarn shop. jake helped me and was an absolute godsend. as usual, i was sweating, cursing, screaming, and he helped me through it. all 14,000 yards of it. how many boys will do that for you? and cute. really cute. and he smells nice. all the time. honestly. even when he’s sweaty, he smells clean.

i have been feeling really guilty about not blogging more lately and having no photos, but i have been really busy trying to get orders filled and then really exhausted when i am not busy. i have been overdoing it, but it is hard not to…i do as much as i can when i can.

i started a shrug, although not the “hug me tight” one that i mentioned before from lion brand. the pattern is utter shite. it has this simple schematic and doesn’t explain if it is the top bottom, sleeve, neck, make 1, make 2, no clue. garbage. i returned that crap book and found this shrug and started it, although as an afterthought i realized that i am lucky enough to have gotten the gray ghost pattern free from the creator herself a while ago. i hadn’t thought about doing it with half sleeves, but i think it would be nice. and in a lighter weight yarn but still on a bigger needle to keep it a bit more open, and lighter. so. after the circular one, which i am using my own handspun for, which is so nice, i need to use my own stuff all the time. not to toot my own horn. not to toot my own teacup. not to toot my own toes. it is fun to knit with though. i always just spin it and sell it.

well, my head feels like it might explode, so i am going to go and relax.
pictures soon. i swear. i have tons of stuff to show.

smoooch.
