Ecoknits - again
Note to self: Must get more photos on the site. I’ve got boxes of scrumptious yarn and gorgeous needles stacked here there and everywhere, but I’ve just not had a child-free, dog-free moment to get everything out. Must do that this week, especially since I started an Ecoknits group on Ravelry. And there’s people joined who I didn’t invite! Woo-hoo!
On a more mundane front, last night I very nearly quit. If I could have found someone to tender my resignation to, I would have done. Except there isn’t anyone, and if I quit, then there wouldn’t be anyone to do my job. And I can’t quit if I’m the boss, can I? Although sometimes I wish I wasn’t so in charge. Can’t someone else take responsibility for a while? Can I have the weekend off please? Go away somewhere for the night? Or even just crawl into bed for 24 hours and let the world pass me by?
Yeah, I know, it’s been one of those weeks. Only three weeks left until the end of term though. Yippee!! I have to organise Myf a birthday party though first. And sort out the final completion certificate for the extension. And then I have to start decluttering big time if we’re going to get this house up for sale before the bottom drops out of the housing market completely. I won’t even mention the bloody Land Rovers on the drive, dropping oil everywhere and taking up any spare time that becomes available.
On a more cheerful note, I’ve just cast on a lovely lacy patterned top for me, in a creamy coloured organic cotton. It’s so soft! I just hope the gauge is right, as I didn’t do a swatch, but hey, it’s all knitting, right? 
houses and housing market, spit.

LOL! Honestly Mom, would you really want all five of us?
And the chickens?
As tempting as it is…

Come on over, yes all of you, and chooks if necessary - dunno where we’d put you all but kids can cope!

I want chooks, but can’t really. Not yet anyway.

Take it easy Kris! You can always come down here for a break away….. sometimes that’s all that’s needed to re-energise and get focused on stuff that’s been ‘in yer face’ for a while…. We miss you… it’s been far too long…
