Computer is still somwhere in route to california along with the rest of my worldly possessions. Somehow I don’t care that much that all my things are packed and in boxes. I really should unpack the clothes though, but by doing so I feel like I am actually admitting that “yes, I am living with my inlaws”

I have finished my “Socks to relieve moving stress & prevent ulsers!” with the lovely Socks That Rock. This is going to be a favorite yarn for sure. I am totally in love with it.  I think bigger feet call for a more substancial yarn. It’s like putting a flouncy silk shirt on us big girls, it just isn’t right. We need substance that floats away from the body, not draping on it self & on you

SO! tonight! I’m going to be winding my lace weight yarn & doing some simple lace I think. I found a LYS close by that has thursday knitting groups so maybe I can actually be *gasp* SOCIAL!!!! I want to learn how to spin & guess what? They offer classes. Craziness. So yes, tomorrow if I’m up to it I’m going to face my social anxiety & not think about “what if they don’t like me & think I’m fat” (because honestly, even if I know you, I’m wondering this) and knit with people.

Work has been crazy & I’m totally exhausted but we are running & that’s all that matters. Had sushi last night with my inlaws & we all stuffed our faces My SIL’s wedding photographer was actually at the same restaraunt & was W.A.S.T.E.D! OMG She just kept talking and all I could think of was “Man, someone should tell her that her lipstick is smeared” but I didn’t because I don’t think she would have really understood. O_O

So yeah. Tonight I’m finally going to get a new project on the needles & this weekend I think I am in need of some retail therapy. Maybe some good booze too. Life kind of hurts right now. I wish they made an asprin for this But, being the good Finnish woman I am I will smile in public & cry in the bathroom That’s why they make concealer my dears!

 The good thing? Even deep down you always know life gets better.

Who wants to move up to Seattle with me & start a gourmet cheese shop? We can call it “Of Men & Cheese”
