weekly update

i'm knitting a bit. i'm sweating a lot. it has been unbearably warm here lately. hence the knitting not so much. i just don't like the feel of damp yarn. call me crazy. but there is light at the end of the tunnel. rather there is central air conditioning. or there will be. at the new place. see. since lesely has not found a new job yet. and since th elandlord is selling the current place...she has to move with mom to a new place. which happens to have airconditioning. yeay. the bad news i'm moving up to north denver. i am pretty sure we could spit on the airport from the new place. sigh. i'm gonna miss the boulder snb girls and guys. mental note, knit with them as much as possible before the move. i will however be able to visit the denver knitters more conveniently now. and even better i will be able to comfortably knit, even wool, in the summer. yeay.
cross your fingers i do find a job soon though. if nothing more than for my sanity. but most especially for my yarn budet :)

Good luck with the job search. At least you'll be closer though! Sorry for the move and all.

Oooh oooh oooh, does this mean you'll be living close to me? I know it doesn't have the ambiance of Boulder over here, but things are getting better, and you know you can hoof it to my place any old time for coffee and whatnots.

Well, I'm glad at least your move is bringing you closer to me. Moving sucks - hope it goes well. And drop me a line if you want to knit!

knitting updates

ok, now for a knitting update :) i know thats what you really wanted to see. here are the contents of the sockpalOOOza package that goes out in one week. i am so excited! counterclockwise from lower left: there is a sock tote for her to use the next time she knits a pair of socks, the socks, postits. my favorite way to mark patterns, a card telling her all about her socks, a postcard of longs peak to show where i'm from, a birthday card fror her to share with a knitting friend on a special day, and stitch markers. yeay! i love presents! i can't wait to mail this! and on to current knitting... so a few weeks ago i went down to highlands ranch for the Littleton meetup, i went next door to string to do a yarn exchange. thats like free yarn you know. and picked up 7 balls of this elsabeth lavold sily wool. ooooh. wonderful yarn! i know, there are only 4 in the photo. thats because my italy cardigain is well under way. 2 balls in i just stared the third and i love love love this y...
and a last farewell...before i ripped out sunrise circle i took a parting photo...this sweater was jus tnot meant to be. too many other things wanted to be finished first. soon to come the bad penny 2 that i'm making for my trip to italy!

so much to do!

with only a few days to relax. a trip to the beach turns into a blur of "i just want to sit here" mixed with "but we have to do this too" so several days worth of photos divided into day parts. cause really it is all running together :) think sandra bullock from that movie premonition where the days are out of order...but nobody's gonna die. sunrise: over the ocean. after waking up early not feeling well from a late night out with the family. i took one for the team ad finished the wine...don't do that. not good. i ran the 2 blocks to the boardwalk and over the dunes to the water to get these couple of shots. seagulls and beachcombers are your only company when it's this early! i've never seen so many mussel shells when it wasn't after dinner. midday: on the boardwalk. after the beach you go to the boardwalk to grab lunch at mack and mancos. apparently the best pizza ever. i'm not convinced. but heck i don't really get the wa...
