and a new blog...barely anything to say...
i'm still knitting, and haven't finished any of my crochet projects. but that's not really a new thing...i switched colors knitting! and i did it pretty seamlessly! i'm so proud! it took me a long time to try that with crocheting and i did it instantly with knitting...though i do prefer the crochet since it's a little less stressful about not having to lose a stitch or anything!
i decided to blog this morning since i was up at 5:30 to work out...i'm in this thing at work where i have to lose 5% of my body fat by May 4. I promised myself that i wouldn't eat desserts until i lost 10 pounds! i lost about 4.5 last week and worked out 6 days :-/ it was a long week and i have to keep doing this for at least 2 months....then i can start to weaning off of it...i figure this is a jumpstart for my wedding...i wanted to lose like 30 pounds by the wedding...and i wanted to lose 20 pounds by may 4...so i should be ok by doing this early and slowly....i'll keep everyone updated on the knitting and working out

Keep knitting! I'm glad the stripes are working out for you! It really isn't that hard if you just do it, ya know? I started a sweater for Max, in really gay baby blue alpaca! Knit with alpaca sometime...it's SO soft!

I'm glad you figured it out (purling)...wasn't it a ridiculously tiny difference?? I'm totally irritated! Whatever. The Knit Picks goodies are five hanks of un-dyed Peruvian wool yarn to make a sweater from the latest vogue knitting. I'm thinking about dying it myself for amusement, but I may just leave it cream colored.

You're right...I really do need a real job, but FYI...I just updated my resume and I intend to apply for a few receptionist positions I found on chicagojobs.com. Is $11-12/hr reasonable for a receptionist job? Sounds better than what I've made lately.
