Lightening

struck my house last night.  Now I have no air conditioning.  It’s hot.  I’m miserable.  Nuff said.  Hard to hold wool and knit socks when it’s hotta than hades in the house.  Everyone feel sorry for me, o.k.?  

Not quite what I had in mind

I was searching for a knitting pattern for a dress with the little diaper cover/lolly/panty thing, whatever you want to call it, and came across this,   padded panty, and being the curious soul I am I had to take a look.  These things are padded to make your rear end look bigger!   Excuse me, but [...]
