Oh blog how I have neglected you…
As I have been neglecting so many things in my life these days. My job and lack of interest for it has completely taken over my life. So much so that I haven’t been doing much of anything for weeks. I’ve been ignoring just about everything in my life.
First off my friends, oh how i miss you three girls. Amanda D called me 3 weeks ago and I haven’t called her back yet, i’m such a bad friend. I totally forgot that Stpeh and Steve were going on holidays last week, and I didnt even know that Manda M was going to Florida! I swear one day i’ll make it up to you guys.
I have however got some knitting done (mainly on the bus back and forth to work, and the half hour before i go to bed and need to calm my nerves) I finished my blue socks – both of them! But I don’t have pic’s of the pair, but i do have a pic of my first monkey sock!
Isn’t it purdy! I’m so happy with it, it took me just over a month (eek, for one sock, i know!) but i’m hoping (fingers crossed) that maybe i can knit the entire second one this weekend while we are camping. I’ll give you the update when we get back.
Now i had a whole list of things i want to blog about (like the fact that there are only 349 people a head of me in the waiting list for Ravelry!) but most of them i can’t remember, and secondly I gotta run cause we are on the way up to the trailer.
But i promise i’ll catch up when I return!
Testing…Flickr uploads
It’s been a while, but I’m back.
Man, its been so long since i’ve wrote a real post! Only one post in July and so much happened! Not enough time to catch up, although I’ll try! It’s been such a brutal few weeks at work, working late, and dealing with a lot of crap, and there is an average of at least one person quitting per week – so we are losing people left right and center. And of course nothing is getting better.
Although on an upside, my strategy article was posted again this time in media in Canada – http://www.mediaincanada.com/articles/mic/20070803/risingstarlavender.html and I’ve got a bunch of emails from rep’s and clients saying congrats which does make the day go by a bit better.
Anywho, on to some pictures – I’ll try and some up the month in a photo-montage for you!


Pic’s from a relaxing Canada Day weekend in Meaford & the Blue Jay Game with Jesse & Mel on July 6th!


Pic’s from the 50’s Party – which despite the rain was a big success! Everyone had fun, ate hotdogs, popcorn, floats and did the twist! Pic’s from Justin & Sabrina’s wedding – even when amanda and I aren’t trying, we still look hot!

And then finally some pic’s from my week with Manda, Maya and Steph back home!

Okay enough pictures i think for now! I think that’s an overload – although i’m Happy i figured out to upload pics from flickr since i think the wordpress uploading thing sucks – it takes longer this way, but i think in the end it will be better – no space to fill up!
Oh ya – I also got my first secret knitting pal package, some great sock yarn, in which i’ve cast on for knitty’s monkey socks – which are looking cool. I’ve also been working away on a bunch of other knitting projects – which i’ll have to blog about later. This weekend is crystal and dave’s wedding – should be fun, got a new dress to look all cute in – and hopefully it doesn’t look to tight and it actually looks good – we’ll see. night for now :)
