In the Plaza
DB was busking in the crowed plaza. Tricks of juggling fireballs or phantom dragons flying out of his hat made people gasp. Some even flipped him a credit or two. A bike messenger burst into the empty space where DB was doing tricks and ran into him. They both tumbled to the ground. The guy was up and moving again, before DB even realized what had happened. He got to his feet slowly brushing dirt from his jacket.
A couple of nano seconds later, two men hurdled their way after the messenger. Tires could be heard screeching and a sickening thud could be heard. The group of people who had been around him, disappeared. DB watched as the two chasers, moved the messenger into the back of the SUV that struck him and took off.
The crowd's mood changed with the action. DB figured it was time to leave. He picked up the few props he had and started to his car parked in the garage several blocks away.
DB checked his pocket for the FOB. Instead he pulled out a thumb drive that wasn't his. It was going to be one of those types of days. What was on it that people would be willing to kill for?
Catch Up
I keep thinking we're going to get rain, because it's so dark out there. Then I realize, no, not rain. Those aren't clouds, but smoke from all the fires. The sun is a lovely shade of orangey pink. Which I look at way to much.
I've taken my two socks at a time, and moved one over to an empty needle. It's going a bit faster now. Course working on the sock at all, is faster than watching them sit. Since it is summer, working with wool is hard to deal with. I've been making dishclothes. Twenty seven of them since the first of the year.
Broken
Drug Grilltech to the doctor yesterday because he’s been limping around for a week or so. He’s got tendonitis on his left foot, plus a bone spur. He’s in a walking cast, which helps. Today I’ll be picking up his medications.
I’m a bit frustrated with him. He wants to lose weight but will only do a fasting diet. He’s lost five pounds, which is good because I know what a struggle it can be. I think he needs to move more. Sure, he’s hurt right now, so I get it. When he’s feeling better, he does nothing. He works two jobs, so he has limited time. People make time for what's important.
His life, his choices. But his choices will be impacting me. I’ve told him in the past, he’s going to leave me. He thinks I’m talking about divorce. I really mean if he doesn’t make some changes, he’s going to die long before me. And that’s what scares me the most.

I Need A Title
I go to bed about 1900 (7:00 PM) at night, because I get up at o’dark thirty. Last night, I jerked awake because of a nightmare. I was awake for about twenty minutes before I was able to go back to sleep. It’s been a long time since I’ve had a nightmare bad enough to wake me.
On the knitting front, I’m working on Grilltech’s socks. They’re too fiddly to work on them during the morning staff meeting. I’ve started working on a washcloth instead. Turns out I can do a whole row during that time.
I’ve been fighting with the company that handles our house payment. They’ve been doing things like taking payment out for the wrong week and putting us in the hole. Today I’m going to send them bank statements to get paid back for all those bounced check fees, because those really add up.
Take care, the world is a dangerous place. More dangerous then it should be.

Grumpy
The tools are conspiring to make me crazy. The new one insisting on putting my login credentials in anything and everything that requires an input box. It’s very frustrating for when I’m trying to add someone else’s name. Then SQL server keeps timing out. I’m unable to get logged in, *right this second* to do some updating. Nothing must be done *right this second*, but I want to get it done and over with to move on to the next task.
I reset my password this morning. And two logins later, my account is locked. Not having fun. I end up on the phone to the help desk. Turns out they changed the requirement of how many characters that are needed to have in a password. Which explains why my password wasn’t working any more. I’m leaving work early today. I’m annoyed and don’t want to be here anymore.
The Eldest is creating drama. Thankfully, I’m in another state, so I don’t have to deal with it face-to-face. It’s hard because I’m only hearing bits and pieces. Sometimes it’s only the shocking parts to make us feel sorry for her. I’m torn between feeling sorry and the need to fix it. Breathe in and out. This too shall pass. She’ll get it figured out. I don’t really need to do anything.

Dinner
One of the bloggers (FluildMotion) I read, talked about how she made some Stuffed Buns (Pirozhki)
We had nothing planned for dinner, so I thought why not. Pretty good for my first attempt. Totally made them our way. Instead of hamburger, we used pulled pork. Added peppers and onions, with lots of garlic. I'm pretty sure we'd make them again.
Hello
They’re talking about lifting some of the restrictions on May first. It will be nice to be able to do things, not that I’ve been restricted much. But Grilltech might be able to go to the office instead of working from home. He’s starting to go a bit stir crazy.
He’s doing things like buying a new two new printers. One is new to him, which works fine. The second one is a resin print to do mini’s on. He set that one up in the garage, because there are fumes. The type of fumes to where a face mask is needed. I’ve gotta admit, the mini’s are looking pretty amazing. No errant little strings one gets when printing on the plastic printer.
I haven’t been knitting. Only doing a little during the morning staff meeting. I hope it comes back, I kinda miss it.
I’m thinking about getting a haircut. Something dramatic. It will be shorter than my collar blades.
Stay safe out there.

Today I get to go pick up the material I had order to make masks. I'm really looking forward to it. Dragonflies and skulls & crossbones, quite the interesting mix. Can you tell I'm making some for guys?
If anyone is interested the pattern I'm using is A.B. Mask. Course I've made some modifications: make sure the schematics are the right size and I make the ties longer.
Sleep is Over Rated
Last night was a bad night of sleep. It started out okay. Went to bed about 1830, woke up about 2030 when Grilltech came to bad. Woke up again about 2330 and couldn’t get back to sleep at all. I think I drifted off about 0130. Today is going to be a long day.
Worked on a dish cloth, while playing Civ. It’s almost done. My normal Garterlac Dishcloth. It’s to the point, I can do them in my sleep or lack thereof.
Hope everyone’s day is good. Stay safe out there.

Happy Easter
Happy Easter, everyone. Hope your day is lovely.
I'm sitting here drinking a Chai and enjoying the quiet. Well, it would be quiet, but the dog is snoring and Grillech is listing to something in the bedroom that I can hear.
I'm going to spend the day knitting. Yesterday I spent the day making masks. Sending four of them to my parents. I wish Joann's would hurry and tell me to pick up my material so I can make more. Speaking of masks, it helps to look at the size of the schematics, instead of just cutting out the one that is displayed. Now they're proper size, they fit better, and are much bigger. I don't know what we're going to do with this masks once the pandemic is over. Keep them for the next one?
All Ready?

Things that have happened since my last post:
- I’ve finished my shopping bags; I need to buy more cotton to make more
- I’ve made masks that we only wear half the time when we go out. I should wear mine at work, but I drink quite a bit and would have to undo it. Put it back on. Undo it. This is why I’m going to be infected
- I’ve ordered more fabric to make more masks. I’ve also added cord stops, so it will make securing the straps easier
- I’ve been stress eating. It doesn’t help that Perky is making cookies
- With the kids home, we’re eating all the nights dinner. So, the leftovers I planned to use aren’t there. It really messes with the menu

Another New Bag
I'm trying to make enough market bags, so I won't have to use the store's plastic bags. I'm about two or three short at this point.
I've started another one, this one is mint green. The pattern used is called English Lace. It's work every row. I'm at the point where I stop and count after each half of the row. It's really easy to make a mistake. Nothing like frogging back four rows. I learned my lesson.
Hope you're day is pleasant.

Down the street on a rainy Saturday.
My finished market bag. I like this one. I'm trying to picture this stitch pattern in a blues and white. Bet it would like look an ocean wave, or I'd hope it did.
Another!
When we left off, I was talking about the issue of not getting the right stitch count on row two? Figured it out, it was an extra three stitches on the first row. Once that was figured out, I made it to the sixteen row. I stopped and counted. How can I be 29 on one side and 31 on the other. o.O
Its for a shopping bag, so it won't matter it's not right. I fudged the numbers and it's back to 31 on both sides.
Sometimes I wonder if I'm fudging my way through life. A bit off here. A bit off there. Then I've got to figure out how to add another two stitches.

I feel like I've done this before. Think I do the math right, (9*3 = 27) only to realize I'm wrong. It's really: (9*3)+4 which makes it 31. Guess which one I cast on for: yip, 27. Ripping back to nothing and starting again. Plus the pattern I picked Mermaid Mesh counts aren't working. I've gotta double check and see if I charted it out wrong. It has something to do with row 2. I'll ask for help on Ravelry, if I can't make it work.
So the math is 62+44 = 108. I think that's right.

Down the street on a cloudy winter day.
Finished the shopping bag I started. It only took a couple of days. A little more satisfying then a washcloth.
I'm ready to start another one. I'm going to chart up the pattern I'm using. (Page 267|268 of A Second Treasury of Knitting Patterns, it's called Mermaids Mesh.) I'll be using a blue to make this one. So I thought a sea lace would be good for it.

Progress
I ripped back on the market bag I was making. It was coming out very small. Size six needles will do that. I swung by the yarn store on the way home. They didn't have the eights in 24 inches that I wanted. Instead I bought the size nines at 24 inches. Went home and started the bag over again. Much better. It's an added bonus of doing seed stitch instead of the K2, P2. I looked at the previous bags I had made, turns out I have a profile. Seed stitch. I'll post a picture when I finish. It's going pretty fast. (Heck ya, size nine needles!)
Have a good day.

Happy VD
I went back to karate last night. We modified some of the moves to help prevent damage to my knee. I practice the kata in the bathroom, which has a totally different floor then Sensei’s house. I’ve got to move slower at work, because I don’t want to get hurt again. Physical therapy is $$.
Socks are coming along, working on the decrease site of the pattern. The pattern is diamond shaped. I hope to kick them out quickly. I’ll need to work on them more at home, if I’m serious.
I meant to leave some presents out for Grilltech today, but I forgot. I can put them out for when he comes home, but it’s not the same. Not sure why it’s not the same, maybe because I’m there and it’s not such a surprise. I did remember to grab a check for the DMV today. Nothing says I love you like next year’s registration for the car.

I Got Nothing
It's hard to post almost every day. One of my traits is I don't talk much. Couple that with, nothing going on. It means I have nothing to talk about. Shrug
The only excitement I have is I've started the pattern on Grilltech's sock. I'ts one I've done before, so hopefully the memory of it will come back and I won't need to look at the pattern every row.
That's it. Now you see why I say, I've got nothing.
Oops
Sometimes I screw up. This time it was quite spectacular. I have a routine for paying bills. Small bills on my paycheck, because rent comes out on my paydays. Big bills on his. This week big bills are coming out on mine. Not a problem, things will be a bit tight, but we'll live. I went into autopilot mode and paid the small bills. Oops. We'll be in the hole for a couple of days until his check comes in. Back when everything was paid by check we could have skated things, but not now.
Live and learn. And turn off autopilot.
Live and learn. And turn off autopilot.
Frog Pond
I've been working on Grilltech's socks. Still at the cuff stage, but ten rounds into it. I picked a pattern to knit Diagon-Ally, but didn't have the pattern when I started so there was too many stitches and the wrong kind of ribbing. (K2, P2) instead of a K1, P1 (K2, P1), P1, K1 ribbing. I was just going to fudge the numbers and make it work. In my heart I knew it was going to be wrong, but I didn't want to rib back.
I've decided instead, I'm going to make another set of Paragon Socks for him. Which means, I'm going to have to rip back. I'm pretty fickle at times. I still want to knit Diagon Ally socks, but not at this time.
Breathe
I’m busy having a bit of a freak out. The company I work for lost its prolific contract. The contract I work on. Not sure what the future holds and that scares me to no end. When I was younger, I wouldn’t worry about that. Now? Older or wiser, I’m not sure what to do. Leadership hasn’t even had time to talk to us yet, so I might be doing the what if’s for nothing.
It’s time to breathe, just breathe. No sense in worrying about anything right now. This too will pass. I’ve been lucky so far, no reason why that luck won’t be there in the future.

Today I'm...
It was a bad night of sleep. I went to bed about 1930, pretty close the usual time. Woke up around 2330 and could not get back to sleep. Tossed and turned, until I finally got up for 10 minutes then I was able to go back to sleep. This morning I woke up with a headache. Right now I'm wishing I'd stayed home. But I'm a responsible adult and went to work. I've got three days off later this month, so I'm working until then. A day off during the month really cuts down on the sick call outs.
I'm still on the cuff of Grilltech's sock. I'm about half way through the usual 20 rounds I do. I'm trying to figure out what pattern I'm going to use. I've seen some pretty spiffy items on Ravelry, but I cast on too few stitches to use them. Yea, yea, I could rip back, but I'm not. I think I'll use a cabled braid. It's been a while since I've used it.
Drive safe, it's snowing out there.

Superbowl Sunday marks the 31st anniversary of our first date. It's really hard to think we've been together that long. To me, it seems like it was yesterday. I really hope we have another 31 or more years.
Done!

I finished up my mitts. I like how they fit. Too bad, the lace pattern doesn't show up real well. They are warm and I really like them.
I started a pair of socks for Grilltech. They'll be a
Go Me!
I've been doing some physical therapy for the past month or two. My right knee was weak and I needed to strengthen it. I've done the exercises, plus my walking and yoga. Today, I was able to hold side plank for a full minute when before I was only about 30 seconds or less. My hard work is paying off. Eventually I hit my goal of being able to run. Might be several years away, but it's a goal.
... and then I got pissed
I got a letter saying my mortgage company was changing from X to Y. We use one of those company's that take out payment every two weeks then send it to our provider. No stress, it's done.
I call the company and that company has changed. Oh no. They ask for my information. I supply it. Can't find you. I give them the loan number. Can't find you. Give them my husband's information. Hey, found him. We're sorry, we can't talk to you, because you're not on the loan. Mind you, I'm the person who handles this stuff, so I know I'm on there. Nope, you don't exist. I swore some, then hung up on them. Called Grilltech and told him to get me added so I can take care of this issue. (He was able to use the loan number with no problem. GAH!)
Two minutes later I'm on the phone with them. Still can't find anything with the loan number. Can't find it with the phone number. So I have to give them his information. Hey, there you are. So far I'm not impressed with them.
I work at a call center. I know how frustrating it can be dealing with the public. I should know better then to swear at the poor employee. But I also know I'm human with little tolerance for stupidity. This needs to be something I can work on.

Oh No!
Ever have one of those days? The kind that you forget your glasses and phone? That was me yesterday. I could totally live without the phone. I can't live without my glasses. I'd be squinting at the screen. I went home and stayed there to work. Because I'm that type of person. Drive home, then back to work? Not something I desire. I think if it happens again, I'll need to to drive back. Accountability. Sometimes being an adult sucks.
On the knitting news, I've got about ten more rounds before I finish the hands. I'm really looking forward to finishing.
Have a good one.

Something Snappy
Yesterday I had an eye exam. It wasn't at my usual eye doctor and change is hard. Why do they have me fill out paperwork if they're going to ask the same fragging questions as the paperwork? Making me repeat answers, makes me very short tempered. Anyway, the doctor was saying he's concerned about the nerves in my eye, which can be a precursor to glaucoma. Again, new doctor who may be worried about nothing. He wants me to come back and do some sort of scan to double check. I'm thinking, I'm not even going to be here next year, so that isn't going to happen. Overall, I'm not impressed with their office.
Perky and I are using Dualingo to learn Spanish. Now she's saying she wants to learn Gaelic. Not sure if that's something I want to do. Wonder if I can do both. Will need to check into that.
How was your weekend?

Hurry Up Already!
I'm impatient today. Everything is taking way to long to complete. Grilltech isn't responding fast enough. (He's working, so that does come first.) The report is slow. (It's taking the same amount of time as last week.) YouTube is repeating the same songs over and over. (Different play lists, but the same songs.) Maybe it's not everything else, but me. (Of course it's me, I mean who else would take responsibility for me?)
It doesn't help that last night, I thought it was Wednesday. I was very unhappy to discover it wasn't and today was. That means I have another day of work before my day off on Friday. It's looking like I'll have to work half a day on Friday. Course I could work from home on Thursday to cover Friday's hours. It's a tough choice.

More Snow
Last night when Grilltech got home, he told me there was three inches of snow on the driveway. I got up a bit early today and shoveled most of it before work. I was only ten minutes late. When I get home tonight, I'll get the other side*. It's a good workout. Too bad, I forgot to start my timer. :|

Baby Steps
Today I put to use my new mantra: I'm allowed to make mistakes. Was questioned about something that I showed as happening back in July. It actually happened on the fourth. I said, in that case, there is nothing to defend. It's been less than a week and even if I had started working on it on the sixth, it still would be three weeks before anything happened.
I think therapy is helping.
It seems I'm having a day. A supervisor came by asking about something I should have done on the 10th. Oops, that's totally on me. I forgot. Totally not a normal day to do that report. Not going to kick myself over it, even tho I was wrong about it.

Snow Day?
Woke up to snow today. I thought it was still snowing when I got up, but turns out that wasn't the case. I wear glasses, so looking out the window is a bit of a challenge. Especially when there isn't any light out side.
We've only had a handful of days with snow. Will it stick around? Most likely not or I hope it won't.
What time is it?
Yesterday was a time warp type of day. I kept thinking it was Tuesday, but it wasn't. Plus, I thought it was an hour or two ahead of what it actually was. I hate time dilation days. It messes with my sense of, well, time. I'm sure everyone else has similar days. I wish it would hurry up and be Friday, but that would be messing with time. I don't let people at work time warp, so I should have the same restrictions. Stupid morals.
New Year, New You
Perky and I have been going to the gym. Not only using the treadmills, but the TXR equipment also. Yesterday we tried some new exercises. I think she's trying to kill me. My abs are sore. Her legs are sore. I think that's a fair exchange. We can do this.
The Importance of Instructions
I've got a corn on my pinky toe. I've been using a padded remover to get rid of it. For six days I've faithfully been using it. Yesterday I discovered the medicated disks, I should have been using.
D'oh.
Burning Hands
I really need to start working on my mitts again. I think the main reason why I don't is because I need my glasses to see the pattern, but I need the glasses off to knit. It's a bit frustrating. They're almost done, well almost being the key word. The increases for the thumb are about two or three away from being finished. Then I'll need to do the gusset for the other side, then BAM! Done with everything but the thumbs.
Happy New Years
I'm temping fate today. How you ask? I'm simply doing laundry. See, laundry days are on Wednesday and Saturday's. Today is Wednesday, so I've got clothes that need to be done. But superstitions says, not today. It took me all over three minutes to decide to forge ahead. I've got a one in four chance of being washed away. Wait, do pets count? Make that one in nine chance.
