Whew! I finally got the progress meter plug-in working again. I am so excited. I have so many projects that are “in progress” it’s not funny. Check them out here.
I also read all nine Sookie Stackhouse books* having finished the last one yesterday! My friend let me read it on her Kindle Wireless Reading Device. Loved it! Now I totally want a Kindle.
And, because I do not have HBO, I had to go and buy the True Blood: The Complete First Season (HBO Series).
*these are the books
Dead Until Dark (Southern Vampire Mysteries, Book 1)
Living Dead in Dallas (Southern Vampire Mysteries, Book 2)
Club Dead (Southern Vampire Mysteries, Book 3)
Dead to the World (Southern Vampire Mysteries, Book 4)
Dead as a Doornail (Southern Vampire Mysteries, Book 5)
Definitely Dead (Southern Vampire Mysteries, Book 6)
All Together Dead (Southern Vampire Mysteries, Book 7)
From Dead to Worse (Southern Vampire Mysteries, No. 8 )
Dead and Gone (Sookie Stackhouse, Book 9)
I restarted the ribbed scarf yesturday and boy does it look better! I had made several mistakes and I thought they were way to noticable. I am hoping to finish it this weekend!
I LOVE my new iTouch – I am posting this on it right now. How cool is that? The only problems so far seem to be my inability to hit the right letters and the battery does not last very long.
I figured out what I bought the Knit Picks yarn for and now have lots of projects to work on. The pink is for this super cute sweater, the red and grey is for a Christmas stocking, and the purple is for some slippers.
Yesterday I started Mr. Foster Sock Monkey. Too cute!

My biggest problem is WIPs. I have so many it’s embarrassing. I got stuck on my Kimono sweater and really need some help, but no such luck yet. Anyone?
I got my new yarn order from Knit Picks today! The bad news is that aside form the super cute Mr. Foster Sock Monkey kit and the 16 balls of pink yarn for a sweater…I can’t remember why I bought the other stuff?? Oops. Guess I need to keep better notes about what yarn I buy for which project.
In other news…I’ve been home the last 2 days with a sick kid and I tell you, I needed this. I have been so sad since my Dad died that it’s been terribly hard to do anything. It was really nice to sit down and read a bunch of mindless magazines for a few hours.
Not that folks’ legal problems have gone away because I am sad, but hopefully I can return refreshed tomorrow.
If anyone has advice for coping with the loss of a loved one, I am all ears.
