I found a new obsession!!

Last night, I was reading an exciting post from Sandy on Facebook where she has added knitting to her list of ways to waste time favorite things to do!  I love having friends that knit!  Sandy... sometime we need a road trip to a real knitting store.  Not Michael's.  Not a craft store.  I must integrate you to the wonders of a yarn store.  LOL 

Someday...  *sigh*... I will get to go to real yarn stores again.  :) 

Anyway... in the thread many, many of her friends are apparently avid knitters!  No wonder we brought her over to the dark side!  They were giving her websites to waste time on find new patterns and learn techniques.  One of the sites I had never heard of before.  Ravelry is an excellent website!  I logged on to check it out and all I had to see were the words "organizational tools" and I was HOOKED! 

Dude!  I can put in my whole stash and keep track of how much is there.  It lets me mark projects that I'd like to use said yarn for and even search patterns that fit my amount of stashed yarn!  Its an Obsessive Compulsive Wonderland! 

So while I plan to knit tonight... today I am in full-on OCD organization mode and inputting yarn into Ravelry.  Plus, Gabriel is throwing up again, so I don't want to get Abbie's Cardigan out until I know his pyrotechnics are in bed for the night.  :( 

Boy update: The Pediatrician thinks that his stomach just isn't ready for real food.  A few more days of bland food and as long as he isn't dehydrated or acting differently or throwng up more... we're still on a wait it out pattern.  :(  He and I are both frustrated, but Daddy will be home in a little bit, so at least there will be a change scenery.  The poor kid saw the KFC ads on the counter and started begging to eat.  I feel horrible, but he just can't have real food for a little while longer.  At least we aren't running fevers or anything horrible. 

So... back to organizing!  It was all I could do to tear myself away to write this!  Ha!
