FO report

FO report. relaly. just trust me on this one!
see i have 3 items finished. but dave has my camera. so i have no proof as of yet :)
i finished dave's italy socks after ripping out the toe twice. if i hear "can you make them just a little longer" one more time i think i'll cry :)
i also finished my log cabin socks. it can be cold outside now so i can wear them!
and last but not least i finished my monster slippers. they're fiber trends felted clogs but a little sillier. you'll have to trust me til i can take a photo.

now for the UFO report
the back to the everest vest is done and the front is an inch or 2 in to it.
the hood to my mom's sweater is done but needs ripping. it has a wierd little pointy thing in the back. i have no idea what i'm gonna do.
i cast on for a pair of toe up socks for my mom. shhh don't tell. its an experiment with a mango moon yarn i can't remember the name right now sue had it and it was part of my stashalong day off i have to post that too don't i? sheesh.
hmm, what else? oh i cast on for the lace cami in handknit holidays and i'm about 4 inches in. its gonna be great. but you'll just have to wait :)

hogwarts sock swap (year 1)

yup. thats right i've sent off my swap package for hogwarts sock swap ...unfortunately via muggle post. sigh. have i ever told you how much i hate the post office? apparently the box i was recycling from starbucks wasn't good enough and i had to repack the goodies at the post office into a priortiy box at wich point they couldn't find me any tape so they made me use the priority mail tape but i couldn't tape up the box the guy did it for me so he went around the box 3 different ways. he taped my scribbled address onto the box from my notes sheet. wouldn't le tme go get alabe or anything and half the address got covered by priority mail tape but its fine...what? anyhoo. i hoep it gets where it is supposed to go. i'll be blogstalking to make sure it does :) what was in said oddly taped package you say? well... socks of course. bertie botts. plus regular and sour flavored beans. some dark chocolate for the witch or wizard with more evil tastes. cow tal...

it's a sad day

for starbucks when a great manager resigns because he's getting too much crap from his boss. a shitton of crap from the guys upstairs and not a whole lot of help. we like to try to set our team up for success. but we don't try to set them up for failure. and that is what has been happening! i'm probably gonna hear something 'cause i'm posting this but it's got to be said. since april i've been working in the second busiest store in central florida. until recently we were beating out all the others in our district. this means we have to work hard. really hard. just to keep up. forget about getting ahead. keeping things shiny clean? no way. shoot for passable. cause you can't really do much else. there's not enough time it is impossible to stay on top. when you're understaffed. when you can't get labor hours. when you have only 2 team members in the store for 2 hours at a time! you barely get things done. and the bosse's boss. well she laid...
