I’ve given up looking at people who follow me because it’s almost always middle aged American dudes who think this is a dating app or gym bros grifting (I mean the lovelorn are probably grifting too tbh).
If you want me to follow back, 👋 on the post or comment that made you want to follow me 😁

Every time I see people displaying their 🧶 stash on peg boards etc I’m filled with envy (it’s all so pretty and also VERY VISIBLE)
But nothing will quiet the voice screeching in my head about what moths, dust, sunlight and damp will do to yarn. Nothing.
I’m sentenced to ziploc bags forever.

My Replay thing from iTunes landed.
No surprises for top 10.
Only that Florence had 3x as many listening hrs as The Cure at n.2
The current album has only been out a month.
ND obsessions FTW! Though I’ve decided I’m calling it Steeping.

This site is going down hill rapidly. Trolls by the legion. Just had to block a guy for openly supporting the idea that The Muppet Christmas Carol isn’t a Christmas movie.

I managed to actually finish a 🧶 project! A baby jumper to go with some cord trousers we found, for my newest nephew. I’m apparently trying to dress the poor boy like a little old man as my thumb is still hovering over a little flat cap.
I’ll be buying him a whippet at some point.

One of the worst things we’ve done to younger generations is convince them that life is for looking at rather than living.

Hey, at least you can look it up now, rather than finding out in your 30’s what, say, Fleetwood Mac’s Rattlesnake Shake is really about. 👵

The most precious commodity you have is your attention. You don’t have to waste it on poor-faith debates or arguments with strangers if you don’t think they’ll be productive. You can prioritize the things that matter to you and make your life richer.

I could have happily gone the whole of the rest of my life without hearing the sentence “Elphabas sex cardigan”.
Still, good name for someone’s punk band.

Me (observing my Velcro cat falling asleep): I wonder where the line is between needing to sleep soundly and needing to sleep on me?
Husband: she loves you. I’d fall asleep on you if I could.

The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975)
After listening to the sound track all day, I had to rewatch it.
Brad and Janet run into trouble on their honeymoon - a flat tire, and the only place in sight is the castle of the lovely Dr. Frank-N-Furter.
Don't be shy-who else loves this movie?

If you are ever tempted to think that nail polish base coats are unnecessary I’m here to tell you that I accidentally used top coat and so far (in two days) three nails are chipped and one peeled off entirely when I scratched my leg.
I did such a neat job too… 😩

I feel like my brain is blowing bubbles. Pressure changes, random gravity shifts, sounds suddenly echoing then just as suddenly muffled.
Still, at least it’s having fun.
Anyway I’ve been a bit quieter, not even knitting as much. That’ll be why.

One physio appointment and two phone calls (one awesome, one not so) this time.
My uncle, a guy who monologues to Olympic standards, found me a bit quiet in a conversation this morning.
Anyway, please don’t expect wit for a while.

Evri is such a shit company.
Just had a delivery guy lie to my face that he didn’t try to deliver a parcel - presumably because he’d already sent the email on his walk to the next house after giving me exactly 4 seconds to get to the door.
You know it’s shitty punitive timing policies driving it. 🤬

Everything I’m seeing about Game Of Wool suggests that the makers know nothing and care even less about knitting and 🧶 craft in general.
Also that they fail to both learn lessons from other similar shows and adjust their format to meet their casts personalities.
Bleh. Not going to bother.
