snap out of it
this hot weather is really getting me down! with going on two weeks of 90 degree weather it is starting to drain me. i mean it's not like i don't have air conditioning or that i have to work out in this hot weather or anything like that....but there is very little you can do but stay indoors in this type of weather.
i would love to work in the yard or flower gardens but other than watering or sitting outside for a few short minutes i've been sticking to the indoors. i think i'm more of an "outside gal" than i thought. it's driving me a bit nuts. if i was on a vacation, or by a lake i would probably be loving it, but enough already!!!!
i've been scrubbing, cleaning, organizing and doing some knitting and reading. i did watch a DVD ( i find i'm just not interested in tv, not sure why, used to love the morning shows but can't seem to get into those either)...
and i have done some knitting. i may be finished with my felted bag this week. next up? i may start on the trellis sweater for the grandson. this is the pattern from knitty.com. i scored some lion brand cotton ease in "mint", at my local Tuesday Mornings for $2 a ball!, or the "lined bag" from the debbie bliss Simply Living book. it is a cute, cotton, seed stitch bag. i would use the Patagonia yarn that i purchased a few weeks ago. remember that yarn...i was going to use that yarn for the market/shopping bag, started it, but was not happy with how it was turning out. and that yarn it too amazing to not do something really beautiful with. plus i do have some lining that would go really well. we'll see.
last weekend DH and i went to see Bewitched. so cute. it was a fun movie. i think will ferrell is funny but i must say...nicole was SO CUTE!!!! you must go see her. and her little cottage is to die for! what a fun girl movie. and if you go with your hubby, will is funny enough for hubby to be happy too.
tomorrow i'm taking the train to downtown to meet a friend on her lunch hour and fit in some knitting time. then i have some Michigan Ave shopping to do. looking forward to that. haven't seen this friend in months. we've lots of catching up to do.
