I heard another frog ...

Yes, that's right, I did it again! I just did not like the way the sleeve was going on my GG so I ripped her out! Hopefully I'll like the look & fit better this time, but I'm still thinging about ripping out the cast-off edge of the body & lengthening it a bit! My dgd says it looks fine, but I don't know, I think it needs a wee bit mroe length to it ... perhaps I should snap a pic of me in it and see what y'all think?!?!

I was tagged ...

"THE RULES: Each player of this game starts with the "6 weird things about you." People who get tagged need to write a blog of their own 6 weird things as well as state this rule clearly. In the end, you need to choose 6 people to be tagged and list their names. Don't forget to leave a comment that says "you are tagged" in their comments and tell them to read your blog.
Here are 6 weird things about me:
1. When I sit, I curl my toes under my feet ... it can look kinda freaky!!
2. I bite my thumb nails.
3. I like to watch Max & Ruby even if my kids aren't.
4. I can still do the 'worm' - lol
5. I had a crew-cut in 12th grade (orange too)!
6. I once fell asleep at a 'metal' concert.
That's it!!
I'd like to thank Allison for tagging me, and who am I going to tag??? Gay, Jeannie, Ysolda, Joanna , Oslofia and Ruth . I hope none you of you mind and of course you don't have to play if you don't want too.
It's really hard to think of 6 things that are 'weird', because to me, they aren't weird.

I really don't like frogs!

Well, I finally bit the bullet & ripped the GG back ... it wasn't 6-8 rows, it was more like 12, but it's done and now I can resume knitting and finishing the dang thing off! I have really enjoyed knitting it & I will make another!!

Delays ...

I had a bit of a setback ... I tried something different on the bottom of my GG and well, it wasn't something to be tried when tired and now I must rip out 6-8 rows ... not a venture I really want to undertake, but I guess I must ...

Sidetracked a bit ...

Well, there was a minor life altering disturbance for my eldest ds this summer, and the other night he had a meltdown related the incident and Mummatamunka had to come to the rescue ... I did manage to help him thru it, although it broke my heart too, so to make things a 'wee bit' better, I designed a new sweater for him ... well, not so much for him as for his new best little buddy. Anyway, I can't get a pic of it right now, but tomorrow I shall try ... in his words though ... "thanks Mom, it's perfect" ...

Well, maybe I'm a 'bit' more like this ...

Well, after reading Gay's latest blog entry, I thought, perhaps I should re-take the quiz with brutal honesty ... not that I didn't the first time, perhaps I'm just the two of these mixed ... shaken, not stirred ...

What kind of

knitting needles

are you?

You are interchangeable.

Fun, free, and into everything, you've got every eventuality covered and every opportunity just has to be taken.

Every fiber is wonderful, and every day is a new beginning.

You are good at so many things, it's amazing, but you can easily lose your place and forget to show up.

They have row counters for people like you!
Take this quiz!

Was there any doubt???

What kind of knitting needles are you?

You are "turbo" charged.Fast moving and classy, you get things done with power and grace. Your expensive tastes can be deceiving, since what you really value is quality and efficiency. As you're careening around those corners in life, finishing a dozen knitted objects each month, stop and smell the roses. Don't miss the beauty of process!

It's the first

Of the New Year!!

Happy New Year to all!!

May this new year bring many blessings & wonderful things to all of you.
