I'm Not Pouting

By -


I decorated the cookies. My "wing" as my mom calls it, (my sore arm) won't allow for rolling out dough etc.

But I'm not pouting.

Couldn't walk Huck in the blizzard cold, couldn't knit on the perfect knitting day.

I'm not pouting.

Television is boring if you can't knit along.

I eat more when I'm not knitting.

I have new yarn looking at me like a puppy at a shelter......as in Pick me up, Pick me, pick me.

But I'm not pouting.

Because, every day I'm closer to knitting again!

I read Ravelry about every hour yesterday.

I can use the time to take better photography for the blog.

Would you like to see the dirt in my house?

If it gets up to a above zero degree today, I'll go outside and take some pictures.

But I'm not Pouting. Because you better not pout.......


I'll talk to you in the comments. :)

Anyone can roll out dough - the true talent is in the decorating!! That's the artistic part. :) And your cookies are fabulously decorated!!

For someone who's not pouting, you sure have your lower lip hanging out! That's what we used to tell Rachel when she was little and sulking.

Soon, soon, soon. And you can't eat chocolate and knit anyway so indulge! Or go out for an Indian buffet - you certainly couldn't knit during that.

soon, soon, soon

I definitely eat more when I'm not knitting! I hope the wing is better soon.

pout pout pout :-) I am pouting with you as I have to go to the hospital with my second son tomorrow. His glasses broke, and his eyes have to be checked by a specialist in order to get a new subscription. It will cost me an afternoon... and I'd rather stay home ;-)

Poor baby! I am starting one of those Noro Silk Garden scarves today and I promise to think of you and feel very guilty while I knit. The cookies look yummy good!

I so sympathize...You are entitled to pout...rant and rave too if you want to!

Having a broken wing sucks....I have a BIG owie on my elbow that just will not heel since I fell in Feb...I used the darn thing anyway, probably why it wont heal...LOL

Not being able to knit is horrific...I don't know how you can stand it. who cares if the house is clean...hire someone for that. Too bad we can't knit one-handed.

Dear buddy nurse and spay neuter pal Linda, came to visit yesterday.  We knitted. We laughed.  We shared books we are reading. She Showed me her scarf.  It looks like a shawl but it is a scarf. Here is her yarn choice. And the( OUCH) price.   It makes her happy to knit.  If Linda's happy I'm happy.  I dont' know the pattern and neither does she.  Her dog literally shredded her pattern.  She was at a point where she had memorized the easy part and she's nearly finished.  So there you go, anyone know the pattern? You are all so sweet about the move and the house. This morning I got my cuppa joe and headed to the porch to write you.  In the distance, my nearest neighbor, whom I can see through some trees.... well one of their teens came out, stretched, peed on their lawn casually, and then laid in his hammock for 5 minutes.  I'm sure he's not the first boy to do this.  I'm not even sure he's their boy.  Insufficient inf

Every Once in a While I Might Post

 Is that vague enough for you?  It has been a too busy complicated Spring.  I had no energy to blog.  All is well now, so I can share some things with you:   1. When I shoot photos of the moon I think of Dear Teresa.  Gone too soon. She took fabulous moon pictures.  2. I did not see one shooting star last night.  I only got up for a few moments around 3 a.m.  The local weather guy said he saw a few quick faint ones.   3. How can I can have one grown child in Oklahoma under flood watch, and One Child in Mexico under hurricane watch?  On the same day.  Tis true.  4. What have I knitted lately?  I am pretty sure I've ripped more than I've knit.  I ripped out a shawl that I was making up.  It was cotton and pretty.  I need to follow a pattern.  5. I was trying to make socks and decided to make mittens instead.  I haven't worked a thumb in a long time.  I may have to frog it too.  So I have been knitting, but not making things.  6. MY gardens are growing.  I have 3 main areas I
