Last Call

Everyone who ordered notecards – they went out today! I spent the whole day boxing and labeling and I hope you’re thrilled. It turns out I have about 30 boxes left, so I’m putting up the For Sale sign one more time.

Palette Blank NoteCards

Box of eight press printed notecards. 5″x7″ glossy card stock. Blank inside. Envelopes included with each box. All cards in box are the same. $4.50 shipping and handling charge added to each purchase. Quantities are limited.















Thank you! I promise this blog will not turn into a look what I’m selling this week blog. If I sell the notecards again, I will be giving them their own site. I’m thinking of doing the sheep cards press printed as well and maybe some other series. That won’t happen until the new year so this is it. Thank you for your patience.

I’ve got no pictures for you because it’s dark out and I’m just sitting down to do stuff. I sincerely apologize for all of the lost weekends out there because of my last post. I won’t link to it or the game lest I be accused of getting people fired, losing their jobs, or ruining their home lives. I managed to get to level 28 and then I got stuck. And then I stopped going back to it. I think I will try again, but for now I’m satiated. Snood isn’t really doing it for me lately either.

And Ariann is freaking killing me! Don’t get me wrong – I’ve written a lot lately about putting things down when you are not satisfied with a project and the pain I’m feeling with Ariann is absolutely NOT that. This is oh my god when are the sleeves going to end pain. I’m still completely enamored with the finished product and the more I see of Ariann around the blogs the more I love it. That said, I’m still not done with the sleeves. I worked on them all day yesterday hoping to get them finished and I did complete all of the increases, but I still have like three inches to go to get to what the pattern states and then I’m going to tack on a few repeats because of my short row gauge. And then I was measuring the body again and it somehow shrunk so I’ve got a few repeats on that as well. My new goal is to somehow get all the knitting on the sleeves and the body done tonight and join it together so that when I’m sitting in the hospital all day tomorrow I will have something exciting to keep me occupied. I’ll be bringing an unfinished sock as well in case I can’t concentrate.

Tomorrow is G’s surgery and I won’t be blogging. Chances are we’ll be leaving pretty early for the hospital and a lot of the day will be hurry up and wait. I will try to update when I can – we probably won’t have any news good or bad for a while yet.

Thank you for your continued good wishes.

  3. Tomorrow will be fine. Remember to exhale.
    Oh and sheep cards, yes, please! I’m soooo there.

  4. I love knitting related stuff…which means I love these cards. They look amazing.

  5. Hope the day goes quickly for you – I know how hard it is to sit and wait. Good Luck!!!

  6. We’ll be thinking good thoughts for you and G. I brought my camera to my daughter’s surgery (she was two) and took about 100 photos to take my mind off how incredibly sad I felt. I hope that soon you can look back on this day with relief.

  7. Super hugs to you and G! I hope all goes well for both of you.

  8. I’ll be thinking prayful thoughts for you tonight and tomorrow.
    Peace!

  9. Good luck tomorrow. You and G will be in my thoughts and prayers. Waiting is always hard…your sweater and sock will hopefully help.

  10. Thinking of you & G tomorrow. We had quite our own hospital adventure last week. The nurses will take great care of BOTH of you, I am sure. Remember- bring snacks, you won’t want to be away from G to go to the cafeteria.

  11. I suspect you’ll have some good news before he ever actually goes “under the knife” – that will make the rest of the day pass much faster. A little (maybe a lot) of recuperation and then a very long and happy life thank you very much!

  12. I’ll be thinking about you all day tomorrow. Fingers crossed and hugs to you, Cara.

  13. Good luck with everything tomorrow. All the best to you both.

  14. You got me hooked on Weffriddles. Fortunately, I started playing Friday evening, and finished the final batch this morning, so it didn’t interfere with work TOO much. If you’re stuck and you decide to go back, I’d be happy to give you some hints, just shoot me an email.
    Lots of love and luck to you and G tomorrow. I’ve been thinking of you both, and sending all the positive vibes I can your way.

  15. right on – tomorrow he’ll be one pound slimmer, sexy! i never got to go to my brother’s spinal taps (yes – spinal taps!) because i was in school, but my mom said he always came out grinning – high as a kite. hope it goes quickly for ya!

  16. Sending good thoughts across the miles to you and G.

  44. I’ll be thinking of you both!!!!

  45. Sorry I missed this yesterday. I’m just really sick right now. I wish you & G the best that can possibly come out of this day and a speedy recovery.

  46. If you need/want another project for your 2007 to-do list…I think notecards with the log-cabin-by-the-sea would be wonderful!

  47. Thinking of you….

  48. I’m thinking of you and hoping all is going well as I type. Best of luck to you and G!

  49. Prayers and good wishes for you and G – I hope all goes well

  50. Yes, that last game link totally blew my whole weekend. Level 30, girl 😉

  51. I’m with you and your gas-passer, grrl. And your man.

  52. ..dang I failed to get that last sentence in there:
    Good luck tomorrow…I’ll be thinking good thoughts from my end!

  53. Don’t forget the STRING DOLLS.
    love yas,
    Kay

  54. Here is one more little good wish for you guys. And sheep cards would be a most wonderful thing.

  55. Good thoughts to you, and warm puppy snuggles for Georgie. (May it be like my dad’s. He mentioned the spot under his eye where a scar had almost healed, and I asked what it was. He said, “Oh, didn’t I tell you about that little skin cancer I had removed a few weeks ago? Hmmm, I thought sure I did.” And that was all, and I’m pretty sure he hasn’t thought about it since.)

  56. They are so cute. I love them!

  57. I hope surgery went well and the news that came back was good.

  58. Love to you both.

  59. Love the cards. Thank you so much 🙂
