Had a bit of a meltdown Friday morning.
Regrouped and slept through the big giant moon on Saturday.
However*!
Our Joan says I sound better, and I no longer have a fever. Yay!
Did I mention that I've got an old lady cold with a side of allergies? Because, honey, do I ever! That combined with a windy few days means it's been a rocky few days.
Any weekend you can walk away from is a good weekend, right?
Right?!
Yeah, don't answer that.
In other news, I'm pulling a CarrieK. I cast on for two different projects yesterday. One of which is a pattern that I know I can fix while working on it. If that doesn't sound like our CarrieK, I don't know what does.
Now if I could just get gauge. Or be in the same post code as gauge, I'd be a happy little freak.
Don't judge me.
* That did not stop the ovulating. Of course, it didn't!
Spring colds are no fun, especially when you get the double whammy of allergies, too. I cast on 2 projects yesterday, too!

Sounds like we both had a fun time at the end of last week. YOU take care, Sweetie! And, I cannot wait to see your new knits! Hugs, dumplin'.

You're under a lot of pressure which can cause the immune system to stumble. Thank goodness you had a good rest and I hope your recovery comes quickly. Take care! Good luck with the gauge. It's a bitch.

Pretty tulip. :)
Hope the nasty cold and allergies go away immediately.
Happy knitting! And that gauge thing...good luck with that.

Ugh! I can't imagine a cold and allergies. Horrors! Hope you're feeling a bit better and the knitting shapes up and flies right.

Oh dear. With all of the other crap, at least you should be able to get gauge. Somebody needs to have a stern talk with the universe.

Feel better soon!
(Should we all be buying stock in the company that makes Kleenex?)

Sometimes the only thing to do is have a meltdown, with a nice cup of tea and a long nap after. Glad you survived whatever-it-was.
I used to be a monogamous knitter. I currently have three things OTN and am having a hard time not casting on another thing or four. Oh, well, it's just knitting, right?

Ack! I hope you feel better. A cold is bad enough but to have the allergy thing going at the same time is hellish.
You can always cast on a third or fourth project if the gauge thing doesn't work out.

Oy. Two projects on the go sounds good. Is one a cardigan? (Autocorrect wanted to know if one was a cardiac.)

A cold and allergies? I'd have a meltdown, too. Glad you are on the mend. Casting on always seems to help!
Posted by: Kelly | Monday, May 07, 2012 at 10:38 AM
Oh geez. Hope you feel better soon. Casting on multiple new projects makes a lot of sense.

Sweetie, you're always a happy little freak ;-)
Posted by: Datagoddess | Monday, May 07, 2012 at 04:50 PM
Yikes! Feel mo' better soon!
Posted by: Anne | Monday, May 07, 2012 at 05:34 PM
Feel better soon. Hopefully already.
If not think how much worse you would feel if you were me and just be glad you didn't have a 3 and a half hour one way trip to see a doc yesterday. (I did spend 20 mins with her and another 20 mins with some of the specialists in her office. Also I found Mother's day presents for both Mother's {mine and hubby's}.) So it was a useful trip. Now all I have to do is get boxes in the mail.

An old lady cold? I haven't heard of that? What are the symptoms? Can guys get it? :)
Hope you feel better. My allergies have been terrible all spring. I wish I could walk around in plastic bubble. John travolta made it look cool a long time ago. :)

But to be truly a CarrieK you should never finish it.

Ugh, cold and allergies, AND a meltdown for bonus points. I hope you're feeling better now.
That is a very pretty tulip.
