Thankful

I am really glad that I have met some very nice people (knitters) online in the past few years.  They have been so kind and supportive with their comments to me on FB and Ravelry and here on my blog while I've been going through hard times.  I am very thankful for that.  Helps a lot.  Kind of sad they are more supportive than some family, but it is what it is, I guess.  I'll take what I can get.  So thank you.

Ouch! Life Sucks!

Renting a room is working out okay so far.  Been spending the nights when Tim is gone to work at Molera house because dogs are too cold and loud to be in backyard and too destructive to be in the garage.  Spoiled little mongrels!  lol.
My lower back went out as I tried to pick up Caleb a few days ago.  Could hardly walk for a couple of days.  Still trying to recuperate.  Totally sucks.  I must be gettin old.  Fuck!  Went to a chiropractor for the first time.  A waste of $105.  And he wanted me to come back a couple more times so he could get more money!  Fuck that!
House going into foreclosure, but Tim is trying to get a short sale.  Life sucks right now.  So fuckin stressed.  Trying to avoid cold sores constantly.  Hope I don't get cancer,...or maybe I do.
Anyways,  at least my career is stable and keeping me busy.  Being at a deposition is my therapy, listening to other peoples' problems.
Was talking to my hairdresser/roommate the other day and told her I was sad to be losing our first house we owned and she said you can't look at it that way.  I never owned it.  It's owned by the government/bank.  A house is just a house.  Made me feel a little better, but, still, I will miss it.
Life sucks.  That's all I have to say.

More Changes

Well, I've moved out of my duplex I had moved into back in October.  My hairdresser is wanting to rent out a room in her house.  So it's good timing she happened to tell me about it when I went to get my hair done last weekend.  Went to go look at it.  It's a nice, big house.  I just hope it all works out because I don't want to have to find another hairdresser.  It's hard to find somone that does highlights how I like it.  lol. 
Anyways, moving in this weekend.  We'll see how it goes!

A Good Day

Worked all day, then came home to happy kids.  Makes me so happy when they are getting along.  Music to my ears!  Finished the shawlette and blocked it.  Just need to take a pic and post it.  Cast on these socks today.  Feels good to be knitting socks again.

Back To Blogging

Wow!  I can't believe I haven't blogged since last August.  Well, actually, I can.  My life has been a complete mess and I lost interest in crafting altogether.  Just recently, I've been starting to get my interest back again...in knitting, that is.  I haven't felt like doing any sewing or embroidery yet, but maybe soon.  I would like to keep a journal and thought I would use this blog for that, even if it's not craft-related, just life-related. 

A knitting project I started a couple days ago and have been hooked on knitting is this Holden Shawlette.  I'm already binding off and it has a picot edge bindoff.  It's a little time-consuming, but it's a new bindoff to me.  So it feels good to learn something new that's knitting-related. 

I'm glad to be getting my knitting life back in order.  Now let's see if I can get the rest of my life back in order.  One day at a time.
