I sit here wondering how long you can go on say one to three hours a sleep a n ight before you start losing your sanity...
Oh WAIT! I lost mine a long time ago..so maybe I shouldnt worry so much..Just thinking over the events of last night and how incredibly stupid it was to get so excited about finishing the shawl I was working on.. At 3 am I was thinking.. DAMN.. tomorrow is going to be on long assed cold and rainy day out in the weather ..I should have went to sleep sooner.. why? because even though I finished the fucking shawl.. I didnt get it fringed so there is no way I could sell it today anyway .. I will not take it and fringe it as I sit today because my work space is not condusive to such activities.. and balancing scissors, beads, fringe template, and yarn is not my idea of fun on a rainy cold day.. On the flip side.. I do have a function saturday night I can wear said shawl to and do some advertising.. Of course, in turn, I could have just worked on it today while I was sitting instead of being on the determined frenzy to finish last night.. I do have to say .. It turned out quite nicely.. Let me go snap a pic and see if I can capture Its beauty.. It will only take a sec and you will never know I was gone..
See...didnt take long at all did it ?
So this is a plum coloured chenille held with an irridescent lurex thread that has pink, purplish, and sliver cast to it .. so just imagine this shawl with a long fringe consisting mostly of the metallic thread some chenille and the thread has black glass irredescent beads on it... of course you can have a picture later.. I just wanted to show you why I was so excited last night..
Also.. since I am on a show and tell kick ..here is the galaxy capelet I did last week as a special order.. I loved the way it turned out.. If she decides she doesnt want it.. I think I will keep it for me .. who am I kidding? If I wear it and some one wants it .. I would sell it off my back for the right price of course!
I hope every one enjoyed their little morning surprise.. for now.. I have to slurp down my coffee and get ready to go.. for some one that was up early so I wouldnt be late.. I am just gonna make it .. figures.. I swear to god I will be late to my own funeral.. and seriously .. any one who really knows me .. will tell you the same.. I am only ever on time when I have to punch a clock.. c'est la vie! I like to think this is an endearing quality about me...I am quite certain its not really and it drives people insane...

OOoO I love that plum one. And that is saying alot, cuz I'm not fond of purples to much. But that is beautiful. Hope market was great for you today.

Thank you for proving my point. You don't even know me and yet you felt the need to make a catty, ignorant comment. There is never an excuse to call names, or tear a person down. It's about respect. If you give it, you'll get it. Try it sometime.
