R.I.P. Iba

May 30th, 2006 by Cecilie | No Comments | Filed in Random

Iba was my cat. Originally. But when going to school last year I couldn’t take her with me. She was a very weird cat. In many ways. Shy and afraid in so many ways. She only felt comfertable in presence of one person at the time. Espesially me and my mother.

Lately she’s been extra stressed out, escaping out and dissapearing if anything happened. Freaking out if she had to be inside.

My parents are moving, and my mother tried to figure out a way to make it possible to take her with them. But in so many ways it was impossible.

In the picture below she’s sleeping in the chair, looking for once not stressed out. Sleeping in HER chair. I’ll miss her.
Rest in Peace Kitty

FO: Somewhat Cowl

May 28th, 2006 by Cecilie | No Comments | Filed in Knitting

I finished Somewhat Cowl Today!(!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

;D
Great great great :O
Not only knitting it. But also sewing the cowlpart and making the ends magically dissapear.

I’m back on sock the next couple of weeks. Or maybe buy some lace stuff. The other day I was looking for my next big project, and since the first challenge of The Amazing Lace went up all over blogland, I was smitten.

And sometime during the summer/fall I will start the blanket I’ve been comissioned to do (my bf mother said she loved the things I make, and wanted a blanket, she’ll buy the yarn). In my mind the pattern is the Mitred Square Blanket from the Mason-Dixon book.

But first, I need to read more/get the second pair of Jaywalkers of the needles so The Pomatomus going.

(and find the battary charger for my camera, not being able to post pictures makes for a frustrated little hippy)

3)What is your 2nd favorite?:and a store I can’t remember what’s called even closer to me, recently rediscovered.
4)What would you improve about it to make it a tie with your first?: start carrying Garnstudio needles, that’s the only thing I can think of.
5)What’s the last thing your bought at your #1 LYS?: Garnstudio Addi needles 4.5mm 40cm and 5mm 40cm.

Tada! Now I only have the arms left of the Somewhat Cowl :P

Now it’s big and complicated to drag around. Last week I was working on it both at the bottom and the top(the bottom ribbing and the cowl ribbing)

During the project I’ve bougth 6 circular needles. No… wait, 7 sets. Just different length of the 5mm and 4.5mm. And a cross-stitch kit.

Anxiety

May 15th, 2006 by Cecilie | 1 Comment | Filed in Random

The constant feeling of dread, fear and sickness.
I fall asleep having problems breathing, squirming, filled with dread of the day past and the next coming. When I wake up it continues.

Just being damn afraid of anything and everything.

I’m not working very well on anything. Basically because I feel like shite. And can’t consentrate on life.

Yup, great.
Or not, at all.
