Day 4

Felt Much, Much better this morning than last morning. Got up and did my 30 minutes of exercising.

Just so y'all know, I am going up to VA this weekend, so I will not be able to post on Friday and Saturday. Don't worry, I promise to be good and do my time!

Day 3

The good news - I got up early today, like I am 'sposed to.

The bad news - I had such a sinus headache, the mere thought of doing any type of exercise caused my head to throb.

I did walk during my lunch hour, though. I know, I know, it is at best a consolation prize.

Tomorrow is another day!

Next Project

Here is a picture of my next project. It is a cardigan for one of my roommates. So far I have the front and back and just a couple of inches on the right sleeve. The body is a k3p1 rib pattern and the sleeves are all stockinette. The yarn is my old standby, Caron Simply Soft. Nice and easy. Once it is done, it should be one of those "go to " sweaters.


I didn't realize how long my loose ends were until I took this picture. It's a little embarrassing, kinda like walking around with your zipper half unzipped. I'll worry about them later.

Day 2

Another day down. Yippee! (I know, I say that a lot). I have discovered, well no, confirmed what I already knew: I really hate getting up early. Especially during the work week. It just sucks. But, hey, I managed it this morning. Only 5 more to go.

Day 1

Well, I managed to get up for day 1. It helped that I had the day off for President's Day. I did set my alarm for 7a, however. Yippee for me!

Exercise, it's not a dirty word.

Exercise, it's not a dirty word. At least that is what I have been telling myself. So far it really has not been working. Soooo, in an effort to "better" myself", I have made a promise to myself that I will get up each day next week a half hour early and do some type of exercise. It doesn't matter to much what I do (anything will be an improvement). I just have to get up and do something. It will probably be something like easy yoga positions and other stretching. If you can't guess, "out of shape" does not really do justice to my physical condition. Right now, I am only looking as far as the end of this week. I can make it through 7 days! I promise, however, no pictures.

If you haven't guessed, you all are gonna get day by day updates. Isn't that exciting?

Finished!

I finally finished the sweater for the Marquise's birthday (which was last week). It would have gone much quicker if I worked on one project at a time. Oh well. I am really, really happy with this sweater. The color is great and it looks good on her. The fit is almost perfect (just a tad long in the sleeve) Yippee!
