A post on the knitty boards caused me to hunt for my senior yearbook picture. Can’t find the yearbook but I did find these:
My modeling days are just about the only thing I’d keep from my teenage years. The rest of it was hell.

It’s almost here. D-Day.
Next Monday, I go to a settlement conference with jackass and his attorney. Not sure exactly what we’re supposed to be “settling” because I haven’t argued about anything. I might have lagged on getting some paperwork over to his attorney but that’s all in good vidictiveness.
So…. that [...]

Well.
I failed miserably at my Knitting Olympics challenge. Miserably.
Knitting with wire is fun, if you know what you’re doing. I really do have pictures to show how badly it all turned out. But I’m not sure I want to show you. It’s pretty ugly. Okay, I’ll show you:

Sorry for such a crappy picture. My camera phone was the only thing handy. I didn’t want to disturb the beasts by getting up.
My cats rarely share breathing space. They aren’t cute and cuddly sleeping together. They live in separate quarters of the house. This was a rare moment to [...]

Just so you all know, I’m not a complete slacker. Maybe a little bit, but not completely.
No, I did not cast on during the opening ceremonies of the Olympics. I didn’t cast on for my votive holders for an entire week. Yep, an entire week of lost time.
But I strung [...]

Ugh. 6 hours in stopped traffic and pouring down rain. Sure, it only took us 3 hours to get to Stitches West… 6 hours to get home. It was a long long day yesterday.

I’ve been eyeing this baby [...]

My mom and I are trekking up to Stitches West in Santa Clara tomorrow morning to be there when the market [...]

So I’ve been thinking.
I love that knitting is my main hobby. I think it might even border on obsession.
But I also think that for the last year, it might have been my crutch. It’s been almost a year since I discovered my husband was cheating. It’s been almost a year [...]
