Dark

Hope you had a good Earth Hour.

After I put the kids to bed I had a bath by candlelight. It was rather pleasant.

Way to go!

A bath by candlelight does sound pleasant.

I did the candlelight bath, too. It's funny, I used to do that all the time just because, and got out of the habit. Must do it more often. Also, must dig out candles more often and actually use them.

Dang, an official, non-power-outage chance to use all my lovely candles??? How did I miss that one?

Sounds like a wonderful way to spend an hour!

Dang (and double dang). I meant to do that (though it wasn't really being done in the US) and forgot all about it.

Random Wednesday; one day late 1. Tried on $325 coat (I swear, the kids made me do it). The largest size didn't fit. Stupid designer clothes giving me a complex about my body. 2. Winter is never going to end. 3. I hate all my winter clothes. 4. Earth Stripe Wrap is taking FOREVER. Maybe it's completion is holding up Spring. I better get on that. 5. Emma is home sick today and my Mac is all set to remote connect so I can work except the stupid Nvivo program is not working so I'm not getting stuff done. Shit. 6. Their tech support is in Australia so I'll get no help until tomorrow. It's Summer there. 7. At least laundry is getting done. 8. I'm going to make more coffee. 9. Thanks for all the comments on my 5th blogiversary. I feel like this is a pretty poor excuse for the post-after the blogiversary declaration. 9.5 FSM! I forgot to mention that the Beck rink placed 3rd in the Tim Horton's Colts. They were the only team to beat the winning Armstrong rink (10-1 in 6 ends). Don't they look spiffy? 10. Look at these instead. I think they're funny. (Work friendly) When the posting goes random, the random go youtube.

Socks and Stoles I finished Emma's Socks a week or so ago and they fit (for now). She loves them. I'm very pleased with them too. I have chosen not to cast on a new pair (as is my custom) and see how life is without socks on the needles. I'm thinking the Ribbon Lace scarf might be a good alternative. Vino is my travel knitting right now (I promise to introduce you to it properly soon), but that will get too big soon. When I do find time to knit, I'm all about the Earth Stripe Wrap. On the weekend I finished the called-for 148cm and discovered that it's too short to throw over one shoulder in that jaunty way that says I look fantastic . Shit. So, I trudge onwards to do another 20ish cm. I have about 2.5cm to go and that's my plan for tonight--tv, KSH, coca-cola and all dressed chips (or maybe a spicy tuna roll...). Here it is at the almost completed mark. Notice those fuzzy things? That'd be the ends. All the ones started on the right side are woven in and just need trimming. But the other side says: "You ain't anywhere near done this puppy yet, bitch." Sigh. Maybe I can get Craig to take me for a beer on a patio on a not-quite warm enough night and I can do that jaunty thing.
