Well there goes another week. I started making stitch markers. The one in the picture is for Breast Cancer Awareness . I found hand made glass beads. I have made about 8 different sets of stitch markers. I even did some that will do double duty. Meaning that one side can go on a size 0-6 needle and the other side can go on a size 6-10.5 needle. What do you think?? I would love to hear comments ??
In other news I have been knitting socks for my husband and man does he have a huge foot. Hopefully I can get them done this week. But first I have to get some knitting swatches done first. We our getting ready to put up some Self Striping Yarn ... I can't wait to see how the swatches come out .

All over the place


Hello world! I am just getting over a sinus infection from hell. I have never had one that produced blister in my nose and throat.. Let me tell you ladies it was not pretty on my end. In other news we put more yarn on etsy. I put up some stitch markers I made as well. I have more stitch markers to put up but my computer take forever. I wish I had cable or dsl.


On another note I am doing the weight watchers diet , let me tell you it really works. The first two weeks you feel like your starving to death. Then your stomach gets use to it and just a little bit of food fills you up. I really would rather not measure my food or cook from someone else's recipes. I love to cook( I have been doing it since about the age of 3) . The one thing on this diet I miss the most is Chinese food!!!!!!!! That is my all time favorite . If it was up to me I wouldn't be pushing so hard for this diet to work but it's doctor's orders. They say I need to get down to 105. I haven't been that weight since I had my daughter and she's 8 . But I would be happy with 125-120 at least then I would have a hole new pile of clothes ( which are in my basement ) I tell you sometimes I think doctor's are out just to get your money. I went in for an ultra sound of my gallbladder. Then they lost the results for 3.5 weeks!!! I mean that's the way my luck goes. They found my results except now they say that I have Fatty Liver Disease!!!! I mean what the heck. The real shocker is I DO NOT DRINK ALCOHOL !! I am allergic to it (seriously ) I 've never been drunk or drank a beer for that matter. As my luck goes the doc say it's part of me being overweight and cholesterol being high among other things, who knew being 50 pounds over your suggest weight could be so harmful. Thanks for letting me vent.




On another note my daughter lost three teeth finally!!! They have been loose for around 8 months ( she won't let you touch them they have to fall out on there own). She is going to be a super model one day !! She so tall and skinny.. She has the attitude already . But I love her anyway. I also have a 4yr old son I will post a picture of him too. He is a little ham too.What funny is my daughter is a little social butterfly at school and my son like to ride with his daddy in his dump truck . In the trucker world he is know as the little gunner after his daddy !! There pic are above . Thanks for letting me rant and rave!!!
