Knitting:
Nothing new to show you. I will say that I am horribly disappointed with the new knitty.com. Really, there isn’t one thing in there that I would ever want to knit. I have never been able to say that about any of their previous issues. I feel kind of bad, but the submissions for this one must have been on the uncreative side. Oh, well. I will still look out for the next issue to see what is in it.
I don’t have anything new to show you because the only knitting I have done is a couple of repeats on the shawl and a few rounds on the sleeve of Wicked. So sad. I have nothing.
The little Schmoo:
He has a bit of a cold. He won’t stop scratching himself. His skin is so dry and rough. No lotion will help him. He loves to tell me “No” even when he doesn’t mean it. Lovely. He doesn’t want to sleep in his own bed. He loves Teddy Grahams. He is scared of loud noises now. We get to watch the same movie about a hundred times. Fabulous. Really. At least we got him interested in a new one. Finding Nemo instead of Cars. I think we are going to have to but this one.
Job Hunt:
Job hunt? You thought I had a dream job at the LYS? Well, dear readers, so did I. Unfortunately, the owner changed her mind. I was supposed to start on Monday. She sends an email to tell me that she is “taking back her offer.” I am not bitter or anything. Nope not me. I love to go on interviews. I love that I told a job that would have been alright that unfortunately I already had another position. So, back to the classifieds. Yep, that is what I have been doing all this week instead of knitting and blogging. I have been looking for a job and going on interviews. I have been wallowing in my own self-pity. Yep. Fabulous. Really.
Laters…. I do plan on knitting today. So, maybe later a FO? You never know. Wait and see.
((HUGS))) mama. You are officially prescribed truffles. and yarn.
Too bad you “lost” the job, but you probably get a much much better one, with higher pay and a nicer boss. Just wanted to remind you that today is the last day of the first Exhibitionist challenge, I’ll be sending out a new task this evening.
I am sorry to hear about the job loss! I am not so fussed about the new Knitty either with the exception of the Clessedra socks. Those made me drool. On the whole, I like the knitty back “issues” more than the more recent 2.
