Good News vs Bad News

Good News: Really into both SAL right now. I finished two rows of the new one Treasures and really enjoying the eye appearing in Fragile Heart

Bad News: I was two rows off in Fragile Heart, not the one I thought I was. So I frogged all the black I had done back to row 50 or so. It was sad and slightly depressing but at least now when it'll be right and it won't bug me later.

Cleaning

Went through all my cross stitch kits, aka before HAED, and separated between want to do, will do and who am kidding I'll never stitch that. I also took out a pair of size 15 straight knitting needles and added all the not to keep stuff to a bag to take to the thrift store. I found my big fabric piece I was hooking a rug on and am currently working on that. Just trying to get stuff used up and out of the way right now. I have 50 rows left of my Mockery socks and the toe. I'm half done with page 1 of Winter and still haven't touched Fragile Heart. I figure I prolly won't finish the Winter goal this month but I should finish the sock at least.

Working Out

Got my program set up today at the gym. I'm a little sore but it was a lot of fun. I'm doing a beginning circuit setup and I think tomorrow I'll treadmill. Stitching wise haven't gotten much done. I started a new pair of Dangerous Turn socks with my hot pink yarn. When I finish the repeat of cables I'm on I'll switch back to my Mockery socks. I'm keeping this short as I want to soak my feet, they are sore from so much activity today. 4 hours of rushing through Sandpoint followed by an hour at the gym then another hour at the two stores here in town. Ouch.

Peaches

Last summer I took whole peaches and froze them skin on in my big freezer. I read about this on a blog and wanted to try it for smoothies. I promptly then forgot all about them. I think it had something to do with my month old blender lid disappearing. Now winter is over and it's hot today, 80 in the shade hot. At least that was the forecast and I forgot to look at the board when I drove home. I wanted something cold and a smoothie was it. Out came two peaches. I ran them under cold water and rubbed the skin right off. By the time the second was skinless I could chop them up and toss the pieces into the blender added milk till smooth. I thought it was great but hubby and daughter said I needed more sugar....I didn't add any. I threw in a packet of Stevia, the Walmart Version, and now it's more milkshake, sweet tooth begone like. Totally Yummy!

Day Dreaming

Today I decided I need to win the lotto. I want to buy a castle and run around in period clothing. Told my hubby he could buy truck and rv of his dreams if he'd drive me around to Renaissance fairs. My daughter was all for it, she's almost 17 and wants a castle more then me. If I ever did win though I'd prolly want to travel and see the sights like Glacier National Park and the Grand Canyon.

Gym

My husband and I joined the gym yesterday and did the walkthrough and made appointments to get a regiment or "program" set up. Today we went in to do cardio aka I walked on the treadmill and he got waylaid and had his program set up. It seems I was suppose to as well but was upstairs on the treadmill and so will next week. Now for my rant.....why do people look at me funny in the gym. Is this the one place people should be supportive of my weight loss? GRR.

On my goal front I finished the gusset of my Mockery sock and carded the floss for Winter. I found the two I was missing in my daughter's stash (her please buy these for me for my project that I may get to in the next year or so stash). I did some stitching but not a lot on her but I finally managed to highlight all the areas from when I first started her. So woot she'll be getting some daily work.
