No Interruptions

Ok...So, here's the deal.
At the beginning of September, I was on FIRE! I was a FRIGGIN crocheting machine! The vision of my afghan, in all its finished glory, filled my head. Row 1 was worked, in a very short amount of time. And, as I started on row 2, I figured this afghan would be a friggin breeze.
Row 2, I came to find, was a little more ( Read more... )

The Support, I Thought I Had

theyarnproject Sep 14, 2010 08:35

Yesterday, there was actually very little, that got accomplished, in terms of my afghan-in-the-works. I was miserable, being kept from it, but there were so many other things, that needed to be done. I think, at the end of the day, I had averaged about 2 hours, MAX, in time spent with my yarn and hook.
Nowhere near enough time, to sastisfy the urge.

Okay...
So, here it is. It is 6:02, pm, and I am just now getting around to writing. I am not happy, writing at this time of day. My whole friggin schedule has been thrown askew, and I am not sure how to react.
The events of today were supposed to go down, one way. Needless to say, they took one look at the way they were supposed to go down, laughed ( Read more... )

Anything To Keep Me Away!

theyarnproject Sep 08, 2010 09:10

Yesterday...
It was the PERFECT day, to crochet. It never reached a temperature, higher than the low 80s. And, for a good part of the day, I was home, alone. There was no interruption. No conversations being held, in dramatically elevated voices, all around me. No scoffing, or lauging, at The Yarn Project, and what a 'silly' little thing, it ( Read more... )

Running Slower Than Expected!

theyarnproject Sep 06, 2010 10:13

To start off, today...I have one thing to say.
I had this idea, when beginning my sampler, that it would be a piece of cake. God only knows, why I thought this. I just figured it would be a breeze. I mean, I had the squares...so, a few, random panels, thrown into the mix, and then it was just a matter of stitching everything together. No big deal. I ( Read more... )

What About MY Project?

theyarnproject Aug 21, 2010 10:01

Okay...
Up until three or four days ago, my life was...well, MINE. I woke up in the morning, and had my coffee, while watching re-runs of television shows that were not all that great, the first time around. Then, once I was full awake, and had enough of a smart-ass perspective to effectively write, I would come to my blog, and let my fingers dance ( Read more... )

Okay...First things first!
I would like to thank all of you, who took part, in my Mystery Project Guessing Game.It was an absolute joy, for me, to read all the guesses that were sent my way. And, most of you came, at one point, or another, pretty damned close to correctly guessing. So, good job, everyone. Yesterday, however...one of my readers ( Read more... )

The Damned Delivery!

Before we go into the discussion of yarn...
Online shopping...let's talk about it, for just a moment. Particularly, lets talk about ordering flowers, online.
In the past, this used to be an incredibly easy thing to do. You go to the website, pick out your bouquet (which will, of course, costs about the same, as a shopping spree at Zales.) Then, after ( Read more... )

First things first...
I wish that my foot would stop hurting. It has been days (which seems an eterity). My foot has been acting up...going on with twitch fits, burning...the wound is delivering more pain than I can tolerate. And, on top of all the pain, I am pissed off.
I had surgery, November 18, of last year. I should already be well past the ( Read more... )

A Quick Trip...

Yesterday...
Well, what can I say, about it?
For all the hell crocheting had put me through,the day before, it tried, in every way, to make amends, yesterday. After writing yesterday's entry, I could pretty much HEAR the apologies of my yarn, and my hooks. We are sorry, they whined, from inside my craft bag. We know we were HORRIBLE, yesterday.
