Change of course

I was home sick again today, so no chance to take pictures, again.   I recognize that I was (maybe?) a little over ambitious with this project.  I stepped back today and gave myself the okay to not take pictures everyday.  I will take them everyday that I am able to.   Much more reasonable goal I think.   I may still blog even on the days I can't get out, even if I don't think  I have anything to say.    I can see my close friends and family grinning at that.   "Catwoman with nothing to say, ha!"   But in reality, inside of me, I am a very shy person.  Until I get to know you, and even after I do, I can be very quiet.  I talk and share when I feel really comfortable with someone.  I'm really more of an observer.  That's not to say I'm not opinionated, because I know I am.   But, that's part of this whole blog - I'm really, really stepping outside of my comfort zone.   I'm giving away some of "me", which I usually hold pretty close.   Wow - I'm growing already. 

Knitting news - oh come one now, you KNOW there's going to be knitting news.  I live and breathe knitting.
I'm loving the sweater I'm working on and the fit is great so far.   I have to get going on the 'Socks for Heidi' though.   I'll work on those some more tomorrow.    Still waiting, somewhat patiently, to hear if the two patterns I've submitted to a yarn company will be bought or not.   It would be soooooooo cool for me to be a real designer.  

I've also spent a good part of the afternoon trying to decalcify my espresso machine.   I've neglected it dreadfully over the last two years and now I'm paying for it.   I think I almost have it flowing freely again.   Now see, isn't that exciting?   Decalcifying an espresso machine.   This women really lives on the edge!

Until the next time..........
