No, you are not on the wrong blog.
No, I am not drunk.
Shut up.
Yesterday was a lot of fun and extremely stressful.
Fun because the above yarn bowl arrived* from the lovely La Verna. Isn't it pretty? I think it's totally perfect, lovely and me. (That's a ball of DK weight wool in it, btw.)
Also fun because that lovely little handknit shawlette thingy went with me to Home Depot. (Yes, again.) And helped to keep me warm and dry when it started to rain. It was clear when I left the house, people. The yarn has little silver shiny thingies in it. I've been told it's some of that fancy yarn with silver in that was so popular last year. (I think it was last year. I don't know.)
No clue about the pattern or the name of the colorway, but I do know it was a gift from my wonderful Squishy. I am so touched AND impressed that she knit lace for me.
I'm also very grateful to our Squish and her man for holding my hand via email while I replaced a thermostat yesterday.
Don't ask. Just know I'm a dumbass and they are totally adorable and fabulous in a cruisin' for a spanking kind of way.
Y'all are smart enough to see where the stress was yesterday. /sigh
And that's my news.
If my handmade yarn ever dries, there will be some show and tell. Since the heat is working better now, it might actually dry before summer.
o.O
Happy Friday, people!
* The return address was Diane someone or other from one of the square states. All the way home, I tried to figure out if it was our Diane or some other Diane and, if it was our Diane, how did she get my address? Or did I give it to her and forget because I am getting older by the minute over here. o.O
It's unspeakably weird over here, people.
