I'm not dead yet....

But I do feel mostly dead.

After an evening not well spent, which is too icky to post about and after making my husband promise that if I died he'd A) take care of the Dogs and B) not re-marry for one year, I got an appointment for noon today. Turns out, I'm a special kind of lucky. I have the flu ON TOP of a kidney infection. Super keen.

So after a massive shot in the ass of antibiotics, some Tylenol-3 (with codin), anti-nausea meds, and more antibiotics, I am finally able to eat something, just now, pain free.

Now, I think I'm going back to bed.

Dude.

I totally got myself super sick this time. :P

Tue I discovered I had a bladder infection. So after work I went to urgent care, got my pills, and thought all was to be well. Thursday morning, it STILL hurts to pee. And, now, my lower back is killing me. And, I'm starting o get chills/sweats. So I go to the doctor again. She switches my pills, and tells me if I get a fever of 1oo degrees, I need to come back. That I should be feeling better by today.

Today I am home sick for work. For it feels like someone punched my in the kidneys. Ow. I'm even too sick to knit. (horror!) All day, home. No knitting.

This sucks.

Dogs in Sunbeams!

Spring=Mud

Mud = Boots.

My new boots?

How freaking sweet is that? I'm totally going to wear them everywhere. EVERYWHERE!! You hear me?

I started a new sock the other night. It's pink and yellow. Lorna's Laces I got from a super swap pal. :)



Remember this?
Well I finished it Thursday Night.


But I don't think it's going to work out quite as well as last time. So. On to the matching socks? Or a hat?

Oh how I hate you, Daylight Saving Time

And other such Nonsense.

Also, this could be titled "things my dog ate"

And by "ate" I mean that he has shredded them, or torn them apart, or unravelled them. Hopefully Not consumed too much of them.

18 rolls of toilet paper.
2 slices of pizza (those were actually eaten)
a kneadable eraser
a makeup sponge
Yarn. sweet sweet yarn. at least 4 skeins
8 buns. (again, eaten)
Kleenexes
A couple lame magazines
Some hen and chicks (plant...not fowl)
Wooden knitting needles
my knitting
the garbage

you know... I think I'm forgetting something...


Anyway. Knitting has happened. I made a puppy pi over the weekend. Its' super cute and I can't wait to toss Siris in it. I fear he may eat it.

I also am very close to finishing the little dress that goes with the conception sweater. Hopefully I will finish that tonight. I just have to knit the arm and neck edging, and sew 2 buttons on it.

Dogs in Sweaters

Well, this is the best pic I could get of Siris' sweater, which totally doesn't show the cables. But try to tel him that. :)

Also, a teaser for Cpurl.

As I was taking a picture, he had to stick his head in, and try to take the socks.

Well, that's all I got. I'm feeling icky today, so I'm off to get a heating pad and the TV remote. I thin it's a pizza for supper type of night. :)

Hubby's Uncle just came and plowed us out. Hooray! I think.... I guess that means I have to go to work on Monday. ;)

And today, I finished another dog sweater.

I'll post pictures tomorrow.

Snow Update

Today, the dog won't even go outside. there's too much snow. It's almost 10 am and she won't go out to go potty. Crazy Dog.

I get to stay home, on account on the fact that it woud take me 3 years to shovel out my driveway. So, I'm going to get a bunch of housework done, and the watch bad day time television.

Ahh... I love snow days.

Snow! More Snow!

That's the view off of my deck. Lots of snowy goodness. And more to come.

And I'm totally prepared. Last night I picked up two bottles of wine. :D

They let me go home early from work, so I've changed into my jammies, and I"m going to go sit in front of the tv and veg out one bad day time tv. I can't wait. :)
