A Miscount, In My Favor

Aug 22, 2010 11:06

The "Evil Dictator", also known as my wonderful sister, drove the members of this house to the brink of INSANITY, yesterday. I worked on that damned logo, way longer than any one person should EVER have to work on a logo. Michael, stretch the image out. Oh no, I don't like that...shrink it back down. Now, it just looks funny, stretch it out again. ( Read more... )

oooh I like that one! I wish I had a camera to post pictures of mine up. seeing how fast you go through everything keeps me moving. And I'm imaging a voice in my head for you sister when she would call your name. It's probably not as anoying in real life as it is in my head, but I can only imagine.

No...I am sure the annoyance of my name being called is, sadly, worse in real life. My 2 syllable name, somehow, became 5 syllables. I am still not sure how she pulled that one off.
I am glad you like the square. Most of my squares, it seems, get the A-ok, from my readers. For that, I am happy.
I am also thrilled to hear that you keep going, seeing how quickly I am working.
At times, I will be honest...yarn is a big PAIN. But, being on a deadline...well, I am going to finish it. I have to.

Granny 91 is a beauty.

You had some shining moments in your horrid day - yarn working well, mom buying yarn - hang on to those moments and shed the others as fast as you can.

Hugs and more happy stitching.

Thank you...I am glad you like the Granny Square.
Yes...yesterday did have its good moments. Mom buying yarn was definately awesome. I am happy over that.
Thank you, by the way. Thanks for your continued support, as I go along, with this Project.

Is your sister older? My older sister was a bit of a dictator too. But after a few (ok like 25 or so) she finally realized that I was not a very good servant/follower! lol So when you post about your sister's voice calling your name...she sounds exactly like my sister!

Rad granny! (My friends and I are trying to bring "rad" back.) =D

And yay for mom buying yarn!

Rad....Good word.
My sister is older than I am. I am glad I am not the only one, who falls pray to the Dictator Sister.
