Place Me On Your Shelf

Been catching up on things!
My quest for a vegetarian diet is not going so well. I keep flopping back and forth between veggie days and “normal” days. I will just have to try harder.

I finished up a skirt for my friend Kai.

I got started on the October is for Spinners (Rav Link) scarf (FINALLY! I’ve been wanting to for about a year! Don’t worry, everything else should still get done!)


I can see where i got a little messy with my PRTs, but I’m not sure if I want to fix it or not… If I have to rip it out, it may sit dormant for a long time…

I’ve added a thing that benefits me amazingly. I love the interface of WordPress so very much, but I don’t want to lose my LJ or leave it sadly waiting like a lost puppy. talia_speaks showed me an application that allows me to post to my wordpress (like I am doing now) and it will also post to my livejournal. Which is good, because I can have comments on LJ and comments here.
of course, i don’t really want the general public knowing about everything… so things that i f-lock here on WP, i f-lock on my lj by default. I mean, all posts are posted to my LJ f-locked anyway. I don’t want people knowing I’m doing this. Silliness, right?
So then, LJ has a new tag: WordPress. Be prepared…
Wedding stuff will still probably be LJ only though. Just cause.

Now, to see how this works… *test*
Well, isn’t that lovely! The cut doesn’t work on LJ, but it does on WP. Sorry friendslist!
Oh yeah. Works now. Just no pretty flavor text. oh well!

This is my new knitting project. In the summertime I wear tank tops, and I love to wear my bra with them. The problem with that is that the bra will show. So this little shrug will keep that from happening. I will also attempt to to add lace. Since this is based off of the Possum Shrug, I will need to add sections to the back and front to make it more like the bolero that I want. Now I just need to find a way to make a front for it. I’m sure it will all come together. I will post erratta when I’m done, and hopefully I won’t be awful at writing patterns.

The color happens to look really good on me. So far, I’m pleased.

In other news, the wedding planning is coming along well. I’ve accepted that I cannot plan it all in one night, and that it may not be perfect. (but how can something be perfect when I don’t know what I want?) I have come to realize that it doesn’t matter. After all is said and done, pretty pictures or not, I get to have my love for the rest of our lives.  That’s the important thing, and I’m going to try to stop stressing about it being “pretty” cause it’s not really about that. Is it? I need to stop being a small detail person and be more of a big picture person. But then I suppose I wouldn’t put as much detail in my clothing designs and such!  Maybe just for this I can overlook detail, right?
