Photographs and Memories

Okay, so I’m not sure on the title, it’s just an old song bouncing around in my head. I’ve made some small changes around here in Kis*Knit land. If you notice on the right side of my page down a bit, keep going…under the categories…yup, there, I have added the various projects I’m working on or am planning on working on. And by planning on working on, I mean I have the yarn or I’m making it in the next couple months. This isn’t my wish list of things to come because I don’t think there is enough space on the Internet for what I eventually want to make. It’s sad really.

If you look closely, you’ll see that I have a Dr. Who scarf in post-production and it only has 48 ends to weave in. Considering I’ve barely looked at the poor guy, that’s not that bad. I just need to make a concerted effort to get it done and out the door before winter. The problem is I don’t wanna! *pout* Okay, I’m over that. I’m going to set a goal that that scarf needs to be blocking by the end of September. Maybe October. But October by the latest.

I’ve been getting a little bit done here and there. Sometimes a bit less here and there. I’ve been doing a lot of computer-based work (since I’m a programmer and all) so my wrists have been feeling very tired. Especially the dreaded right wrist. And boxing starts in 2 weeks so the wrist will be very temperamental for a while which means smaller doses of knitting. I think if the doctor said I had to give something up to save my wrist, it would definitely be work.

For those who didn’t know me last year I hurt my wrist in a boxing class (it’s an aerobics class but we actually pair off and hit pads while wearing gloves). I was in a brace for 8 weeks and I think I only was able to stop wearing the brace because I stopped knitting for the last 2 weeks (okay, probably more like one week). Boxing aggravates it but hitting people is so much fun that I can’t stop. If I could, I would be hitting people randomly on the streets. But hitting is wrong so I don’t do it. (see I have a moral compass) However, if you see me passing you on the street? I’m probably thinking about hitting things. Or knitting things. And now I sound all horribly violent and all. I’m not. Really.

Okay, I think I will stop now because I’m tired which means I’m babbling and rambling and I should be knitting or sleeping or reading or something productive. Hmmm…cleaning? Naaaaaaahh
