B-Day Party

AW's party was fun. Fred and Dohara got me flowers:

I love them with my heart--both the flowers and Fred and Doh.
The cupcakes were super sweet, but good. I shared one with Josh. Josh and I sang, very poorly, the song from the asteroid movie. I'm pretty sure Josh thinks he's Steven Tyler.

I'm failing at finishing my tank top. I've done one of the arms, but need to do the other. I haven't really been able to figure out how to reverse the shaping. I'm also still only half way on James' blanket. I hope Jim understands that his middle daughter is a total flake.

My Birthday!

Okay, my birthday is really the 28th, but I'm having a party on Saturday. Actually, AW is having a party on Saturday, and I took it over and made it my birthday party. I'm bringing cupcakes from Michelle Marie's Patisserie.

Everyone in the whole world is invited (I'm sure AW won't mind).

Flies

So, Josh is sick and we've been fighting flies for days. It's like my house is like their club house and they all meet up and then sit on the window next to me (wow, bad grammar). Okay... it's not that bad (the fly problem, not the grammar--which is horrible). Honestly, it's gotten much better lately (again, the fly problem).

I think, and this is just a guess, that the flies are flying into the house via the back door which someone is leaving open all the time. Okay, me, I'm leaving it open.

Josh has been using our electric fly catcher (okay, it's really a vacuum) to fix the fly problem. I was only able to catch this one in the act because he's currently near death on the couch (Josh, not the fly).

So, what does all of this have to do with knitting? Absolutely nothing. A smart, but somewhat egotistical, boy told me that this blog is just a way to bitch about my life and hide behind knitting.

Apple Pie

So, I made an Apple Pie... It's pretty much brain surgery. I still have massive problems with the edge.

I think it's kinda the same problem I have with everything. I rush and then it comes out mediocre. That's probably why I can't seem to save my life and the all the nice things I knit are done in the round.

Tank Top Secret Project!

OMGS! That's like Harry Truman Capote!

So, I've been working on this super secret tank top project... it's super secret because I'm afraid it's going to suck and don't want another public octopus FAIL. And, it's even yellow!

Anyway, this is the tank top pattern:


I have the back already done. Below is a picture of the front. I'm about half done. I'm really scared about seems.

James' Blanket

This is the blanket. It's about 3/8th finished.
