I’ve finally come to the time that I can truly say….my head hurts. After 4 weeks of dealing with a sinus infection, being unable to smell or taste, pressure behind my eyes, two rounds of antibiotics and 3 packages of Tylenol Sinus….my head hurts. Basically it feels like this

Rain, we need rain to wash all that pine pollen out of the trees. The wind hasn’t helped. Now the roads are covered in redwood duff and the pine pollen is blowing all over the place. Add smoke from fires here in California and I am in agony.
But enough about me.
Knitting: Remember the really cool ‘camp sweater’ I started in June thinking it would be completed by our camping trip in August? I cannot find the pattern. I have the back and 7/8th of the fronts done. No Sleeves.
Socks: I can make 4 pair a day and considering I have 3 quite large holiday events in 6 weeks, I need to get
kranking. This is Summer sun, pretty cool don’t you think?
Yarn: I’ve decided to continue with my original plan of buying raw superwash wool ‘goods’ and dye my own. I get immense pleasure from the dying process (But the way my head feels, it might be dying).
This is Katie’s Summer, I’m retaking photos as I get the yarns dyed.
I am a free spirit with my time. I really don’t have a set schedule of what to do. I get up, get the kids off to school and after 2 cups of coffee pretty much do whatever I want. If the house needs cleaning, laundry done, garden watered. That is what I do. Where am I going with this? Business. I flirted briefly, last week, with going into an official on line business. I enjoyed the process of building the web site but when the rubber hit the road, I didn’t want to be tied down to HAVE TO do anything on a specific schedule. So I’ve re thunk my idea and am, as I said above, back to just socks and dying for my own use. Some of this may be I am rather sensitive about what I do. I really don’t take negative criticism well. The thought of pouring my heart out into a product that no one is interested in was not making me feel good about me. So, I guess you could say I will continue to live in my own little world and continue to delude myself about my creative outlets and just do what I want when I want.
Perhaps my head would feel better if I got it out of the sand.
