lbs away

oh my. my prolific summer of knitting has ended me up 30 pounds heavier ( as of 2 weeks ago, Ive lost 11 lbs since then) , with "barnacles" on my hip ( Im not kidding the doctor said barnacles, what am I an oyster???) and tennis elbow. cardiologist says i should power knit, on the treadmill, with a brace on the elbow. my lord.

so , I am trying to be better. treadmill every other day, walk with hubby some nights, no eating after dinner, and getting off my butt and pulling weeds or working on the pond or something other than knitting 7 hours a day. but, man I love to knit. ever notice tho? a lot of us are on the chunky side. hhhmmm.

school starts monday. gotta be certain I dont lapse into the "im tired" mode when I get home at 4 -- but the sleep apnea, which we now know I have but they havent started treating me for yet, does really lead to a dragging feeling a good part of the day -- curious to see how I do at work....

school sweater

spent much of the spare time this weekend working on my school sweater. (aka lion brand sweater jacket) Its coming along well, very very easy -- just knit knit knit.

it was kind of brainless, but its good prep for the upcoming school year and the myriad of projects that I have to get done before Christmas.
