Friday!!And what a perfect time for a long weekend.On the medical front, nothing definitive from my primary care physician... so I'll follow up with my OB/GYN. I did manage to go to aerobics last night... just kept things really low impact. In the words of my doctor, it sounds like "something is jiggling inside," and he suggested I follow up with the OB/GYN. He did give me hope in the sense that he said it didn't sound like anything too serious, and most likely it would go away on its own in the next few weeks. But without a definitive diagnoses, there is NO WAY I'm going to wait another month to see if it goes away. I have health insurance (thankfully), and I can afford the $20 to follow up with a specialist. Better news from the doctor's office... when they weighed me, I was actually at my driver's license weight (well, 1 pound over, but I was wearing clothes!). So that means in the last year, I've lost about 15-20 pounds! Hee hee! So at least THAT was some good news! On the knitting side of things, I started a small rug last night using a strand of this terrible feeling acrylic stuff I got from ebay (the raspberry color), and a strand of black red heart held together. It's just simple garter stitch on size 11 (I think) needles, but it should make a fairly sturdy fabric that I can lay on the floor in front of the door, and then throw in the wash when it gets dirty. I thought about putting the MD Sheep and Wool rug in the entrance way, but I really don't want it to get dirty all the time... plus, I love standing on it in front of the mirror- nice and cushy! I also turned the heel on Daf's first sock... good old doctor's office knitting! :) After I finish this pair, and the other pairs I have waiting for the last details, I'm going to knit the May sock-of-the-month for ME. After doing all of this sock knitting, I really should have a few pairs in my collection! Of course, I already have a full drawer of socks... so I think I should do some "give-away" pruning of the collection. I guess it's good that I hardly ever wear out socks... but then again, that doesn't leave me much room for more! Just in time for the nice, long weekend, I give you a moment of kitty-zen: Apparently, CSI wasn't really all that interesting (well, it WAS a repeat...) Don't you love the tail-curl? Guess who finally remembered to get a Latin quote? in deposito "as a pledge (on deposit)" 0 comments || # |
