TKK Piccie from last year: Just too cute not to share here. :D
I don't have any real knitting news to update y'all with. I'm still where I was yesterday... or Friday or whenever I last updated. Well obviously several rows along. :P
I'll try to post some actual stuffies tomorrow or so.
I feel like I'm behind. I have several thing's I want to post. Like how to do my version of stripped yarn and show my completed first sock.
The mind is willing, but the brain is lacking battery power... that and time.
In unrelated news I'm having a drinkie or two right now. Raspberry Vodka over limeade. YUM.
Oh and I got a pedicure and manicure today. I was knitting on the second sock during the pedicure. I'm stealing moments here and there to work on that.
My nails are PINK. *pokes Dave* Nothing wrong with pink. Thanks to him I want Lobster. *SIGH*
:P
OH! Cookie informed me today that summer would be here this week. That's kinda fucked. o.0
It feels like summer already. The sun is so hot and just OUT right now that I can barely go out without crisping up as it is. We are getting a sun shade umbrella for the backyard tomorrow, and it can't come soon enough. It will be lovely being able to have some blissful shade. I love knitting out there. :D
Oh!!!!! Saturday night we sat outside under the starry sky and watched the night sky. Perfection. It was peaceful and beautiful and just renewing. We talked about all the things young lovers talk about when gazing up at the night sky... you know which of the stars were bright/alive enough to sustain a Class M Planet and why the atmosphere makes the stars look like they flicker, but how they don't in space... *L*
The stars were twinkling and just wonderful.
It was a bit like staring at the ocean. Calm and I could breathe.
Sunday we got some books on Stargazing as I haven't done it in years and need a refresher. This weekend I'm taking my blankey outside and I'm just going to absorb all that lovely starlight. Breathe it in and be at peace.
Of course when the Stealth Fighter went overhead it broke the stillness of the night, but that was kinda cool in it's own way. *giggles because I'm in Nevada...*
One last thing, don't try knitting with wet nails. Just don't. :P
I am long overdue for a pedicure. It's a guilty pleasure that I think I deserve.
The front porch seems to be the place that we are spending our evenings these days. I really have enjoyed it so far. Soon the hot muggy weather will arrive as will the bugs..but for know..knitting heaven.

Hmm..spending good yarn money on toe-work? That's a concept I've never tried. lol Regarding the color pinmk: I LIKE pink, I use it a lot. It's the combination of pink and overly tight spandex that I have a problem with. (The woman in question almost had her shoulder pop out of it's socket when she tried to answer her cell phone. THAT'S TOO TIGHT!!!)
You look pretty in pink;)

Star gazing.... When I worked at a summer camp ("This one time, at band camp...") several of us would sit out in a field and watch the stars. You could see all of the constellations from there and it was truly magical. One of my favorite memories from that job...
