In the news today, we see that some people's version of reality is vastly different from the rest of us. The Dallas News reports that a man in his 20's attempted to pass a $360,000,000,000 check. Yes, that's $360 BILLION! Like someone would believe that a man in his 20's would have such a check to cash??? I wonder what he was smokin'?
Meanwhile, I'm being naughty again. I'm mere inches away from finishing DH's socks, I've got three other lace projects on the needles, I've got a gorgeous Sock de la Mer to knit, not to mention Deep Breath or those pesky Mission 2008 projects to work on. So what did I do?
Duh.
Let me introduce you to Boing!
For the next progress photo, I hope to have four hands, so I can show you some open lace.... and Yes, I did cast on quite a bit ago. Then we had a little tiff, and now that I have reopened my brain to the reality of reading simple and well drawn charts...we're off and springing. Gotta love this color too. My camera didn't get it quite right, but we'll try again soon. It's a perfect foil for the gray blustery day that's gusting around outside.
That wind kept me from enjoying the bit of yoga I'd planned to do on my patio today. The wind thought my yoga mat would make a fine toy. I can see it now...... only Down Dog or Savasana would ensure that the mat wouldn't flick up and tap me on the head or leg or..... I yoga'd inside instead.
ETA:
When I got home from fetching the kids today, I found a glorious surprise! Lookee what Joan (that was you wasn't it Joan??) sent me!
She's totally enabling my Knitting With Nora plans. There are several of us who will be knitting Icarus (or Icarus on Ravelry) together out of this lovely yarn!
Soooooo. I've been thinking and I wanna play Icarus too! Obviously I'll get different yarn. :) But can you send me details about the knit-a-long?? Cuz I just don't have enough projects on the needles. Snort...

Our Joan is a master enabler, and she has already started Icarus even though some of us are still 5 repeats short of finishing Flower Basket!
Boing is quite groovy - I don't blame you. Knit what you want, Helen - life is short!!
