Silly But True

I started reading Enlightenment for Idiots and I just could not keep reading it. In the book the main character goes to India. She keeps talking about this poor little dog in one part and I just could not stand it. It totally ruined the book for me. I actually cried. OK, silly might not be the right word. Maybe Pathetic is more like it. I also get upset when dogs die in the movies or on TV. I just loved Dead Like Me until JD died. My husband was like, all these people die these horrible deaths and the dog messes you up???

Small Favor

I finished Small Favor. It so ROCKED. If you are a fan of the series I don't have to tell you how great it is. If you are not, well that is just WRONG.

Long Weekend

I had a really nice long weekend. I finished a pair of wrist warmers in grey. It has been cold and rainy so we stayed in most of the time. Watching a lot of Dark Shadows. I am reading the new Dresden Files book by Jim Butcher, Small Favor. I love this series. It is urban fantasy and full of non-stop action. The books are really hard to put down.

Hunter

I worked at my new library today. It is the Hunter Library and is bigger than my current library. It gave me a chance to get a feel for the library. I worked there one day last week too. It will be interesting moving to a new place. New staff, new customers. I am excited. I still don't know when I will be going there permanently.

Wristwarmers

I made these from some yarn I had left over. The first one was way too small and I did not like the way I seamed it. I made another on a size 6 needle instead of a 5 and did 6 pattern repeats instead of 5. When I make a pair for me I will need 7 repeats. Most people could just be 5 repeats. I have had several people ask for a pair. I got the pattern on Ravelry.com

The Zekester

This is my other puppy Zeke. We adopted him from the Humane Society. He is such a good boy. He has been with us for almost 3 years.

New Piercing

Well, I was not going to get any new piercings for a while but one of my friends got her lip pierced and I got piercing fever. Today I got a snug on my right ear. It hurts and Patrick said it would swell for a while. But it is going to be cute, cute!!!

Cold, Cold

It has been so cold in Salt Lake City. We will have one nice day and then it is cold again. Not really cold, but not springy. I am ready for some really warm weather that lasts more than 24 hours. I would love to be in South Carolina. It has been really nice there according to my sister. Oh, well. It is funny that here people start wearing shorts and flip flops when it gets to be about 50 degrees. I am still wearing sweaters.

Finished this headband for De, my friend at the library. It is such an easy pattern. I am going to make more. It covers the ears and most of the top of the head so it is practically a hat. De told me that her daughter already tried to steal it. I will have to make her one too.

Ouch!

I was having some soreness in my earlobes so I went and had my glass 12's put in the second lobe hole instead of the silver earring. They are much better now. The hoops moved and I think that was irritating. I am already wanting something new. Maybe snugs???

Piercing party

Some friends and I went to Koi. One was adding two surface piercings, one on either side of her navel which is already pierced. It really hurt her at first but it looks really good. I just had to do something so I got new earrings for the second hole in my lobes.They are twelves so they are stretching too.
