december 3

Today is nice.

I woke up late this morning, not needing to rush anywhere or really do anything. Played some Chopin (trying to learn to play the Fantasie Impromptu). Lunch – brown rice pasta (yup, pretty much got used to it) with broccoli and peas, and garlic basil olive oil. Patrick Dempsey was in Scream 3? Huh. Guess I had seen him before Grey’s Anatomy.

Sitting here now, full, house all to myself for the moment. It’s been flurrying off and on for most of the day, mainly on. I love just looking out the window and watching the wee flakes. I have my big ole log cabin in my lap, working on the final go-round of strips (I’m running out of yarn!). I even finished a paper ahead of my self-imposed schedule – unfortunately I’m running behind on the next assignment. Yikes.

I ripped out about three inches of 2×2 ribbing on a sweater body, out of the Briar Rose Tuscany from Rhinebeck. My ribbing kinda sucked, it was slow going, and I realized that I really don’t like wearing all-ribbed garments (too fat-looking-making). So I ripped some out and am going to go with the flow and do a saddle shoulder a la EZ.

Thanks for everyone that emailed me about the commissioned knitting thing. I’ve found someone; the internet is great.

Pictures to come once my camera’s batteries have recharged.
