So currently I am..
Whining
I go back to work tomorrow and that makes me sad. Although I love my in-laws, travel wears me out and I find it difficult to relax anywhere but my own house. Not to mention I sleep better in my own bed. I should also mention that my MIL invited her neighbors to come to the beach with us, so spending time with strangers was also part of my Thanksgiving. I really don't do well with strangers.
Tinkering
I've been playing around with TypePad and WordPress this morning. TypePad seems easier to use, but it's a complicated process to import from Blogger (and worse, the instructions don't seem to match what I see on my Dashboard; a serious PITA if you ask me.) Importing to WordPress from Blogger won't be too hard, but it feels harder to customize...and I don't even know why I care! It's about the content, right? Not the "wrapper"...right? My blog can still be good even if it isn't pretty...right? (Count this as whining, too.)
Reading
I finally finished Laced With Magic by Barbara Bretton. This makes book #8 in my annual goal of reading 50 books. Obviously, 50 isn't going to happen in 2009, either. It doesn't even look like I'll hit double digits.
Now about the book. It ends on a cliff hanger. A major one. I hate that kind of crap. Seriously. I don't have the patience for it. I've heard there are two more books planned in the series, but I don't know when they come out. (Hmmm. One more for whining. And it ain't even Wednesday.)
Finishing
I will attempt to distract your from the missing NaBloPoMo posts and whining with a few FO's (all of which need a good blocking and a better picture.)
Pattern: Wheatfields Dishcloth by Vaunda Rae Giberson
Yarn: Sugar n' Cream (A big honkin' skein I'll be knitting with forever. I've made 5 3/4 dishcloths from it and I don't even think I made a dent in it.)
Pattern: 4-corners Dishcloth (I love this pattern for variegated yarn)
Yarn: Peaches n' Cream given to me by Amanda during Dish Rag Tag (I've already lost the label and can't remember the color, but it is gorgeous. A fact the picture doesn't reflect.)
Pattern: Waffle Knit Dishcloth (which is my "go-to" pattern.)
Yarn: Sugar n' Cream (the big honkin' skein from above)
Pattern: Modern Cabled Baby Bib (sans strap and with a front cross cable)
Yarn: You guessed it- Sugar n' Cream big honkin' skein
I'm pretty sure I used size 7 (4.5 mm) needles on all these.
If I get my way today, I will be...
- in my jammies 90% of the time (I think hubby wants to go for a walk.)
- knitting 90% of the time.
- watching football 90% of the time.
