vanity takes a back seat...

for the sake of my sanity. dave's been after me for weeks to go to the doctor. see i have been getting these terrible headaches. every afternoon. i do homework in the afternoon, i just figured i was allergic. then i thought about it. i get headaches when i knit too. really bad one last night while i was working on the socks on size zeroes...so i dug out my reading glasses tonight, i've knit 2 pattern repeats and amazing thing, no headache. i guess the glasses are here to stay i could get away without them before :( oh well. i guess i'm getting old. good thing is the glasses match the yarn :)
