Socks for Hubby

Looks like Blogger likes me again so I guess I can start posting more stuff from the live action portions of my life.

Except all I am doing is knitting these days.

Nice Hat Mom

Tristan models a new tam I made. Well, he's wearing it more like a slouch hat but it really is a tam.

Scandinavian Hat


My latest doo-dad I've knitted.  It's a baby-sized scandinavian hat.  I'm thinking of donating it for a silent auction, although it looks really cute sitting on my desk!

Surgery #16

Yesterday was surgery #16 and Julius did great, probably better than he has ever done. The anesthesiologist tweaked things just another tiny bit which made it darn near perfect -- as perfect as anything like this can be.  I can't imagine having to get a big tube down your throat every few months and a burning laser, etc etc.  Poor guy.  He's a great sport though.

This time, he was not completely satisfied with the toys we bought him to mitigate the nastiness of repeat hospital visits, so we took all those back and ended up wheeling him around in a basket in Toys R Us while he was in a post-anesthesia drunken stupor. We are bad parents.

No pictures because either Blogger or AT&T hates me.  I'm not sure which.  You'd think with my level of comfort with technology I'd be able to figure this problem out by now, but no.  My life doesn't go that smoothly.

Blogger Hates Me

Apparently Blogger hates me again.  I can't post pictures from my phone anymore.  Last time it took forever to sort out and it just mysteriously fixed itself.  I'm hoping for another miracle because I have a cool picture of homemade bread and a cool picture of a homemade sock-in-progress.  I know you are at the edge of your seats!

Party Hat


Trying to learn knitting with 4-5 double pointed needles. It's agonizing, but I'm getting there. This is a hat I made for Tristan. I used the wrong weight yarn so it stands up instead of flopping over, but it's still cute.
