OK

How was that for a week? Who am I again? Oh yeah.

Time to get this wagon back on the tracks.

Today I need to do the last of the sicko's laundry and get the beds switched back. Abbey was on the bottom bunk this week.

I need to practice for this wedding which is creeping up.

I need to fix this problem with the brain cramps and the socks.

yah.

making stuff

So I've been going gung ho on these socks, to the detriment of my many other things I should be doing. But they're going to be really super fancy socks...

The last gig of the season for my big band is this Thursday. At least it's a 2 hour throwdown of everything we've been doing, and after my magnificent nerves of last time I'm going to get some practicing in tomorrow and I pretty much get to play most of the day Thursday too so I think I'll be good to go. I'm still sporadically working on Rubber Soul, what a great album. I really need to haul the cello out and start getting ready for this wedding.

Let's see, other things I need to make, ooh, I ordered up a sock monkey kit. I'm sure part of the reason I'm busting my tail on these socks is because I need to clear off the needles so I can start on the monkey. Um, yeah.

What else can I babble on about?

I need to make my yoga practice harder, what I really need to do is to put this one in the morning first thing when I get up so ungodly early and then just add another one in the usual spot.

time to go

Where ya Been?

Just relax, you're doing fine.

Ya ya ya.

Finished both blankets, but haven't uploaded pics because of fear of spiders lurking behind the computer. Ella woke up in the middle of the night screaming about spiders and I can't get her terror out of my head.

Have been practicing some bass just lately again, took about a week off I guess. Realizing again that I must get the cello out. Still time before the wedding, but fast running out.

yoga is all good and is the constant for now, just must.

Still reading the hobbit, but since we're just entering Mirkwood and Ella is already afeared of spiders, well, might take a small break.

Currently knitting socks but really seriously bored with the pattern and wishing I could do something else for a bit, but what?

Projects

I just realized that I haven't sprouted anything in a long time. I think it's because it's hard for me to eat them all by myself before they get nasty. I should at least get some amber waves and bake some more bread.

I have been practicing yoga every day for this entire moon cycle so far, although there have been a few days where my practice is more reading and watching videos and meditating rather than the actual sweating part. But I had to make an allowance for my current life-style with the small non butt wiping child. I simply can't always carve out a half hour or so without interruption. I've also been trying to practice pratyahara and plow on through even with the interruptions.

I finished the Jaywalker socks, then they damn near killed me because I'm not used to how slippery my back steps are with socks on. They don't exactly fit right, but I'm not inclined to rip them out, I think I'll give them away.
