Bundt-cake baking aside...I am so sick and tired of being tired, not feeling good and not enjoying the things that normally make me smile and relax and not potentially go all Kate-Gosselin-minus-the-hair-extenstions on my family.
For the record, I have never worn a pimped out popcorn bucket on my head . Yet. But it's in me, and I fear not far from the surface. Which, you see, is why a trip to Michaels after work last night was necessary. To save my poor husband and children from certain blood-curdling cries or finding me in the closet. Behind the clothes. In the fetal position. Eating popcorn.
The bad news is: I didn't fix dinner and brought taco's home. (Kate would never do that.) The good news is: they didn't starve and mama found inspiration!
My new project is for me, myself, and Irene. Its Bernat yarn in a color I forget the name of but it contains the word heather and looks like brown shark-skin. The color really shimmers & almost changes colors when you hold it to the light. The lighter color is called Silk - ok, so it may not exactly feel like silk, but it does look it. The pattern is kind of a glorified round ripple (I love round ripples!) and I love the way it drapes in the booklets picture. I bought the yarn intending to do stripes, but I'm second guessing it a little - will it look too Where's Waldo-y in stripes ya think? Then again, do I care? I love me some stripes. Plus everyone who's anyone knows they go hand in hand with a round ripple. Duh. ;) And besides, I couldn't decide on which color. They are both pretty awesome, no? As are the new Michaels shopping bags and Creative Couture yarn tote!!
Here's to a relaxing evening propped on the couch crocheting with Max while he watches the Disney Channel....
