The Winter Blahs

February 1st, 2008

I think I have them. I haven't been able to really concentrate on a project for several days now. I've started and ripped three socks. Started and ripped two hats and a scarf. I've even tried to spin, thinking that would be the creative cure, but it just didn't hit the spot. Bleh.. I hate this time of year. It even affects my blogging.

I did manage to finish something. That something red I was knitting last week? It was a secret Gretel for Kris since she asked for one. Connor and I had a little photo shoot before I shipped it off, but I only managed to get decent shots with the flash on...

I don't usually like using the flash, but the rest of the pictures from our "shoot" came out like this...

I haven't even cooked anything interesting this past week. This is a serious case of the blahs.

The kids have a snow day today and the endless fighting and yelling has been non stop. I need chocolate, some calgon and earplugs, STAT!

Around a year ago on this day..

    One solution. Music, blast it. Do you have the ice? Dan wants me to take him over to his girlfriend’s. NOT.

    I’m feeling exactly the same. I am so done with this winter even though it’s been mostly mild here. I want sun and warmth dammit!

    I love the red gretel, my favorite color!
