Long weekend! *happy dance*
It’ll be nice to have the extra day to chill. Good thing too since we’ve got so much stuff planned for today. We’re going to go see The Avengers. Then we’re going to go shopping. I say we, but really, it’s me doing the shopping with O tagging along. I’ve seen some really nice dresses in Dorothy Perkins online, so I’m going go try them on before buying. I don’t think I’m very good at judging how something’s going to fit from just photos so I always want to try clothes on before buying them. I’ll try to remember to show pics of what I’ve come home with if I do find something I like that fits.
Still knitting on Jaden. I know. It’s been almost two months. I never knit on anything for two months (ignoring the sock yarn blanket; that’ll still be a WIP in five years from now at the pace that I’m working on it). But I got bored with it, so I only worked on it at knit night for a few weeks while I worked on secret projects at home. I’m back to having that as my only project (again, ignoring the sock yarn blanket) and you know what, I’m actually seeing progress! Funny how that works. I’m on the second sleeve and I’m determined to get it done this weekend. I might even get to block the pieces to get them ready for seaming if I knit fast enough. I’m also wanting to cast on a lace project. I’m going to sign up for the next Unique Sheep KAL but that won’t start until July. I’ll need something to knit in the meantime. Jaden’s not going to take me that long to finish! Besides, Jaden’s my Woolfest sweater and Woolfest is in June…
Well, I completed the 30 Day Shred again. I had fun challenging myself to do the advanced moves. Can’t do them all for the full time alloted, but I’m getting there. But for about a week now, I haven’t really done any exercise. Year end at work really wiped me out on Monday and I’ve just been really tired the rest of the week. I’m feeling the lack of exercise. I’m not as happy as I am after a workout. And I haven’t been sleeping very well this past week. Plus, I want to make sure the results I’ve had so far stick! So I’m definitely going to go back to exercising daily. I just need to decide what I want to do next. I’ve got two DVDs waiting for me: Beginner’s Pilates and Billy Blanks’ Tae-Bo II, so probably one of those.
