ribbit.
Ponchos, mittens, church, and oh, the
white tiger is back in action.
I've decided to rip up my cowl neck poncho, for 3
reasons:1. I am already working on another
poncho in Noro Kureyon2. By the time I
finish either one, poncho weather will be long gone, and parka time will be
upon us.3. I don't even like poncho's that
much.Well, I do like ponchos, but more
on other people and not myself. So I want to turn all this lovely Lamb's Pride
bulky either into a jacket (as inspired by Laura, who's tartan jacket is all
kinds of baDaSS) ...or a vest, or just a sweater. Whatever, I don't know.
I didn't even rip it yet, because after I
laid it out to look at it, Binky decided it was a good place to lounge about.
Yeah, Binky's back and he's bad.
Turned out that all he needed was a good night's sleep in the cat bed that I
constructed for him (a shoebox padded with a sweatshirt from my NASA days),
which he'd never actually slept in before. He was all affectionate this morning
though, perhaps remembering that I cleaned up his barf for him last
night.I went to church tonight for the
first time in 3 weeks and had a great time, and not just because I did like 10
rows of the the pooling colors scarf during the sermon. The band was the bomb
and the sermon cut to the bone, and ...well, it was worship, and like a
balm after a crazy week.I've
started this thing that Todd the pastor calls the 90 Chapter Challenge. You
read 6 chapters in 3 sections of the Bible (OT, NT, and Psalms / Proverbs /
Ecclesiastes) every day, so that's 18 chapters a day, then leaving out the
reading for the occasional late night or whatever, you try to make 90 chapters
total a week. When you get to the end of a section, you start back at the
beginning. --> 52 weeks later, you're totally saturated in the Word. 4 days
into it, I'm still going strong....we'll see if I can keep it
up.I'm almost done with the
wristwarmer part of my convertible mittens.
This is me saving the WIP from the
fangs of Captain Velcro.
