One Down–One to Go

September 2, 2008

I finished the little finger on my glove today and even managed to cast on for the right hand.  I made the little finger narrower than the rest.  It has five stitches for the third side instead of nine stitches.  It’s also shorter than it is supposed to be.

I got good stuff in the mail today.  My sock club came.  I like this color much more than the last.  I’ll have to read through the pattern to see if I want to change anything.  I can’t leave anything alone.   Isn’t it a great color?

 

 

I also got my exchange from Autumn.  Are those ruffles adorable?  And check out the sock yarn.  It should make great gloves.  Wait a minute.  I’m getting too cutesy.  Let me go grump at Doug for a minute.  Do you know why old married couples bicker so much?  Because it’s fun. 

 

My books didn’t come, but I wasn’t really expecting them.  I also got a nice check from my dental insurance.  It was maximum for the year and they didn’t question anything.  I hate having to deal with insurance.  They want things the way THEY want it and that’s all there is to it.

Dental Benefits

November 26, 2007

My head hurts. I just spent nearly three hours reading about dental plans. I have to pick something by Dec. 10. I have four plans to choose from and I have narrowed it down to two. AARRGGHH!! Somehow, my husband has managed to break two pairs of his glasses this year so I guess I am going to add him to my vision plan.

We watches a good movie last night, Hogfather, based on a book by Terry Pratchett. I have read some of his books, but not this one. I called my son as it was starting. He found out he got Ion and put it on. He was really excited. I think he has read every one of his books. My girlfriend called right after I hung up. I really didn’t want to answer it. She was actually civil. We talked for about ten minutes when her brother called. Fine with me. I was trying to watch the movie and crochet. Then my daughter called. I had called earlier, but she wasn’t home. We had some plans to make. We didn’t talk too long. Since I am used to multi-tasking, I didn’t miss any of the movie. I can talk on the phone, watch TV and knit at the same time, but not crochet. I was very happy when the phone finally stopped ringing. I got a fair amount of crocheting done by the time the movie was over.

Can you tell that I crochet left-handed?
