Ouch

That is all i can say. I have a sunburn, chest, arms, back of arms and upper back(that parts not to bad). I took pics but they don't look as bad as it does when I look in the mirror.


Heat is radiating off of me. I have invested in aleo vera gels and one with lidocaine. dug out the silky jamie shirt and will take something before I go to bed. but the garage sale was a success. Got rid of aa bunch of stuff and had enough to pay for dinner out and ice cream from Cold Stone.

Second bonus of the day my yarn from Sock Pixie arrived today in Wisteria and Lavender Garden....


And Friday Knit picks arrived....


and just because, Imoved Simply sock to the top of the bowelcause ilove The Schaeffer Anne in clara Barton..

Found this on another blog *SmarieKnits* I will try to edit the link in later. Was looking for free patterns.... and I liked it.... Interesting stuff though

Your Power Element is Wood

Your power colors: green and brown Your energy: generative Your season: spring Like a tree, you are always growing and changing. And while your life is dynamic, you are firmly grounded. You have high morals and great confidence in yourself and others. You have a wide set of interests, and you make for intersting company.

What's Your Power Element?

Games I play and things I do

To answer comment left I currently play Guild Wars all 3 campaigns and eagerly awaiting the expansion pack at the end of the summer GW:EN. I also play Battlefield 2, Day of Defeat 1.6 and Source.

I also read, my knitting is at the computer beside me for long screen loads and map changes. I chase my 2 year old around and yell at my teenagers. When I am not pushing the cats and dogs out of my path.

All this I do after working full time as a Clinical Office Manager for a Emergency Physicians group.

And yet I have managed to make 4 pairs of socks this year 3/4 of a sweater and half of a lace pattern (easy) scarf.

Yeah I dont get enough sleep by a long shot.

Well enough rambling about me. Off to the sand box with Joey and do some sorting for the Garage sale this weekend.

Happy Trails to you....
