Thinking this no skirt only pants thing isn't going to last too long. Maybe I'll have to knit me up a pair of these to cover the bandages etc.

Also going to make another one of these, except not in such obnoxiously bright colors.

Thinking this will be my winter hat this year. But in red or green, instead of pink. Maybe blue. But probably green.

Also going to whip up a few pairs of these. They sold like crazy last fall. Unfortunately, I forgot to pack my pair when I went to London. There was perfect weather for these at Greenbelt!

Going to make another pair of these as well. I made one pair in black with red and black interchangeable laces. Thinking I'll do red this time. And need to find proper heels/boots to wear with them. Suggestions?

Also made a bunch of these fishies and stuffed them with catnip as Edgar toys. Made some cute little mice too. I'm actually selling them, so if anyone would like some, let me know!

You can definitely tell classes have started up again. I'm not even stressed and I'm already knitting.

Finally got all of my London/Greenbelt photos uploaded to Flickr. I have a few blog entires on said trip that I need to finish up and post. But right now, I'm off to clean up the cup of water I just heard Edgar knock over. Oi. It's a good thing he's cute!

So, in our backyard, there's this cement wall with a ledge on it, stuffed back against the hill. There's two levels to this ledge. The first level is about 6 feet from the ground. The second is about 6 feet from the first ledge. Yesterday I was hanging out with David on the second ledge. Somehow, when I stood up from the chair to turn around and go down, I fell. I still have no idea how I did it. Or any idea how I didn't break something or at least hit my head on the cinderblock and cement stairs. But I didn't. I landed, hard, in a silent heap on the very edge of the first ledge.



Originally, I was going to take pictures of my poor legs and blog them, but decided it's too fallgross. Maybe if I manage to get off the bed today, I'll go take a picture of the ledge I will never again sit on. But right now, I'm really not planning on moving, seeing as merely existing hurts. I'm sporting a bruise on my side that stretches from my left hip all the way up to my armpit. I have a three inch gash wrapping around one side of my left leg, along with a hand sized bruise/scrape/swell on my shin and a knee that's three times its normal size. The other leg just has a series of bruises and scrapes stretching from my big toe to about half way up my calf. Oh, and the entire upper half of my left arm is scraped and discolored as well.

So yeah. I spent the rest of the night eating dinner with David and talking with him so as to distract myself from how much everything hurt. I think I'll definitely be napping and watching a few movies today.

It was probably three or four weeks ago, at least, when I first visited Mosaic. For now, let's just say that it was a less than pleasant experience and leave it at that.

In light of the fact that I'm still gradually processing Katrina and the seminars/experiences at Greenbelt, I decided to do two things this morning.

The first was purchase the mp3 recordings of Pete Rollins from Greenbelt. I started listening to it once I purchased and downloaded it (and if anyone would like it, please let me know). About 15 minutes into it, I figured, what the hell, I'm up early. Let's go hit up Mosaic. At the very least, it would give me more material to include in some of the blog entires I've been composing, and it would also give me one more experience to contrast with the things I'm processing and hearing.

So the second thing I decided to do was go to Mosaic, and then come home and listen to the Pete Rollins mp3 from start to finish.

So, off to Mosaic I go. Hopefully it won't be too bad, but as I'm sure you can tell, my expectations aren't very high.
