“Who the heck gets sick at the start of summer?”- a friend
Me. I’m not sure if it’s allergies or what, but yeah. I’ve got that burny eyes, achey everything, coughing thing. It’s throwing a wrench in all of my plans for the end of May. Like getting more than just wholesale order dyeing done and actually making progress with the guild on raiding. Oh, and sleeping. Forgot about not doing any of that last one. >.<
Bright side, I am getting some dyeing done, even if it’s just wholesale order dyeing. Proof – this is my sink right now:
That’s not blue spaghetti, just 18 hanks or so of Lil Squish Cotton dyed blue. This is day two of dyeing this batch of yarn. I ran six test hanks last week, and of the two different styles that came out, this one is the one that looked the best.
(Ok, in my opinion. The other looked like something you’d make a baby boy blanket out of while this one looked more like impressionist skies. The former was just BLAH. Anyway, will be knitting a test swatch when one of these is dry to see how it looks knit up.)
Other than that, I’ve gotten maybe one round of sock knitting done this week, and the kids are going insane, courtesy of the holiday weekend. (I’ve repaired the broken-in-half wood frame of a bed already.) Even in game, I’m barely hanging on. Normally I’m all for raiding and seeing how far we can go, but an hour and a half into a raid and I’m fading fast. Really hope I can shake this sick soon and get back to work – it makes me feel so lazy when my energy levels are this low! (I’m thinking coffee is in order this week.)
Oy, that reminds me… I need to go grocery shopping! ACK! Guess I should go do that before lunch time hits, no?
Happy Memorial Day weekend you all. I hope you are feeling worlds better than I am and are having a great time with family, friends or just chilling out at home! <3
