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 :)

Those colors look great- your sock pal is so lucky to be receiving custom dyed socks!

And hey, you can hang out with old fogey me- although I think we're the same age, or at least close, right?

what do you do

with a beautiful day off? well we went for a "scent"ic drive out to the beach. we being the dog. and me. she loves to stick her nose out the window and smell where we are going. we took a few lonely roads. ok, so maybe like 10 little roads. i make turns at random when i'm not in a hurry. and can you blame me? just check out the view! it really was spectacular. i would love to live out this way! we finally arrived at north beach in point reyes national seashore. they have a few beaches where leashed pets are allowed. i snacked on a quick lunch of tomatoes, figs, raisins, and almonds (from the farmer's market again) then we headed down to the water. my baby is 12 and she's never seen the ocean. i must be a terrible mother or something. she was just staring and staring. she couldn't get enough. after repeatedly chasing and running away from the waves for a half an hour she was content to just sit back and relax on a dune. and then she stood and told me it was ti...
