Blog 365 and NaBloPoMo

Well, it looks like the creator/owner of the Blog 365 Challenge punked out halfway through 2008 and didn't bother to tell us on the official site. I just found out today. And I actually DID post 365 (well, 366 in my case) days of the year! So I guess there won't be any award or prize for having gone the distance.

Soooo I just joined NaBloPoMo. I'll get the badge/widget up soon. I just can never figure out how to do things here on Blogger.

You know this is not my main blog anyway, right? My "home" is CountryMouse's Refuge.

ETA: Kamen Lee came through with a very nice award/badge. Here it is, along with a gift from someone else. :-)

Obama Victory in North Carolina Scarf


This is what I started working on last night while we watched Keith Olbermann, Chris Matthews & Co. reporting on the Indiana and North Carolina primary returns.



This is a scarf pattern, called a Garter Ridge Stitch, suggested in the book "Knitting for Dummies"--stupid title, good information. I love this yarn, but I had to try to manipulate the colour in PaintShop Pro to get it to look like it does IRL. It's a beautiful soft pale green with NO blue tones to it.

InsaneJournal + today and tomorrow

I haven't been able to post to my main blog, CountryMouse's Refuge, which is at InsaneJournal. This has to do with the move to new servers over the weekend, and some leftover stuff needing to be done.

Today: lazy day. Did a little knitting. I worked on my pink scarf that has a cable running down the middle. It's from a pattern in the book "Celebrity Scarves 2: Hollywood Knits for Breast Cancer Research".

Then my CFC counselor showed up, and we had a nice session. It's a comfort to have her to talk to.

After that Bunnicula and I watched last night's "Desperate Housewives". We have been watching "DHs" since the first season and don't intend to ever quit. Too much fun!

And then it was time for my little meal of soft foods. I went to my main AC:WW town of Candlefd (Candleford) whilst eating.

In a few minutes, B. and I will be watching Keith Olbermann's "Countdown".

Tomorrow Bunnicula will need to go get some bread and other things for me at the grocery; so while he's at the shopping center, he'll get me some yarn (heh--like I need more!). I want to start a rib-knit scarf. I don't know why--probably because my sister is making one. I always want to try to make what she's making. :-D In fact, I probably even want to be such a copy-cat errrr mouse as to use lavender yarn TOO!

I am going to TRY not to stress out about tomorrow's primaries. Que sera, sera. But Bunnicula and I will almost certainly watch MSNBC's coverage of the returns anyway.

Just a note about forthcoming entries

(cross-posted from my InsaneJournal, CountryMouse's Refuge)

I'm going to be doing a couple or so backdated entries for the 15th this evening [in my InsaneJournal]. But I don't have time now, plus IJ is not totally stable/back in all aspects.

I have an dental appointment in about an hour, then we'll all be going to the grocery store after that.

I'll post a running Twitter commentary from last night when Cat'r and I went to the Mike Doughty concert at Southgate House. :-)

Okay, laterz!
