Magazine overload

I regularly get emails from an assortment of knitting sites. In a recent email I saw a beautiful lace knit cardigan–hooded! I thought about for awhile then happened to be at the mall where there just happens to be a Barnes and Noble. Of course I couldn’t just buy one magazine, so I browsed the selection until I found a suitable companion for the first one.
By the time I arrived home, I have looked at all the patterns and thought I should finish at least one of the half-dozen projects already on my needles. Even if I have just bought a new set, I realize I need to keep some perspective. Well at least for today, tomorrow I’ll just pretend I didn’t tell myself this and start those patterns that keep rolling through my mind.

Time to get physical….therapy.

What a work out just crutching around my living room for an hour.  I can’t even say that I was on my foot and stump the whole hour.  Now that I am exhausted, it’s time for MY physical therapy….time to pull out the knitting.  I know I am getting better as I wobble further each day and overwhelm myself with knitting ideas, projects, books and magazines.  Something will come of this….hopefully actually finished projects and eventually a 5k run on my new foot.  In the mean time I will prop my foot up, try to stop sweating and keep knitting so I can do that next project that I want to do so badly…which was this project yesterday….what a bad habit.  Time to weave in some ends, knit some rows and catch up on my knitting reading.  I hope tomorrow is quieter and calmer than today, I’m exhausted!
