Found out this morning that I am to be on a conference call at 10AM. Received a spreadsheet of things to be discussed. Got a couple of links to websites that will be used as examples. All these before I had my coffee. Oy vey!
I think I am going to work on the unginnged cotton after the day is done.
My last attempt to rescue my old domain, forestmeditation.net, resulted in my finding that my old hosting company regained control of my domain. What the heck?!? All this time they ignored my requests while they had the solution! I am glad that I contacted Register.com one last time. I called my old host and within an hour my old website was back online. What to do now? Well, my name is still not on the WHOIS record. First thing to do is to get that changed.
This happened before Valentine’s Day. It was a class project and I really thought it was going to be THE perfect Valentine’s gift! I was so excited and looking forward to see it completed. But things happened. It just wasn’t meant to be…
1) I never got the correct chart for the heart. I got pieces of the charts, a big section in the middle was missing. 2) Heart pillow class didn’t teach how to make a real pillow. The finished heart has to be sewn to a pillow and I don’t know how to sew. 3) I feel that I wasn’t taught the correct way to do Intarsia. There are trouble spots. Really ugly spots.
Now what to do? Finish and find a way to make something out of it? Frog it? I didn’t even save the yarn labels. I only remember that these are two balls of Merino and one Superwash Wool.
Anyway, we are heading out of here in an hour. We are attending a So. Cal. University orchestra’s rehearsal and performance. They are using our products and I was asked to take some photos. Me? I’m no photographer. I hope they turn out OK. It’s going to be a long day. We won’t be home until 10 pm the earliest! Yikes! And I have to get up by 4 am so I will be ready to leave for the temple at 5 am!
I’m visiting Wat Metta in San Diego county with a friend. The alms-round starts at 8:30 am at the temple so we have to hit the road by 6:30 or so. And that means I have to leave home around 5:00 so I can meet my friend at our temple before 6:30. Phew! I’m very excited. I’ve never been there before. Hopefully the weather will be nice so I can take some pictures.
Oh! I’ve been doing Continental knitting! Yay!!! I started a Duulan hat and thought why not get some practice with Continental. That’ll make Fair Isle knitting easier, right? So, I just sat there and tried to figure out the best way to do it. It actually got really enjoyable. And man, talk about speedy. I couldn’t believe how much I got done. If the hat wasn’t a double thick, it would’ve been done last night. But I still like knitting the English style. I feel more in control that way.
