i happy

work/life balance?

no.

after two weeks of me attached to my iphone as my only usable communication outside of work for.. well work.

really i dont even leave work because my need to be connected keeps me at the office but at home this mac user communicates via phone.

stressful.

today, when i came home from work i had awaiting me this beautiful 27 inch LED backlit display with a wide screen monitor computer with a wireless keyboard and magic mouse.

what a great hubby.

this machine capable of allowing me to work remotely (commute time = extra sleep) greeted me with the new broken bells album.

i happy.

super-chic

 

ok “super-chic” was the name of the feature in my lucky magazine that inspired me to find a yarn that would give a similar result as their fantastic “popcorn” cashmere blend scarf. (cashmere-blend scarf, $275, autumn cashmere. the tannery, cambridge, ma, 617.492.1811)

certainly not a reference to me or my scarf.


this is for miss peggy. i think the pink scarf will no doubt look better on her !

if you knit and you blog about knitting consider joining this wonderfully supportive group who shares your interests.

and congratulations to all lesser known skein bloggers for spending the time and commitment to sharing their personal knitting stories by blogging and for taking this group to a new level by creating a website specifically for us. i am lucky to be featured and thankful for the their supportive community and especially for those dedicated to the upkeep and maintenance of the LKS website.

happy knitting & happy blogging
