Yarning...

[susandennis]

I emptied 3 ottomans and a huge, deep drawer. All my yarn. I wound some by hand. I wound some on the winder (my shoulder is going to not be happy tomorrow, I'm sure). I culled out the stuff I am never going to use. Yer Welcome, Goodwill. I gathered all of the finished and nearly finished squares, octagons, flowers, strips and circles and put them all together into one of the ottomans. Maybe someday they will make a spectacular blanket if I sew them all together.

Then I arranged the other yarn and put it in another ottoman and the drawer. Then I gathered all the hooks, needles, markets, measurers, scissors and put them into the other ottoman.

I feel exhausted and accomplished. This Saturday was not wasted.

Once again, the Mariners left the tying/winning run at the plate. Sigh.

Zoey is eating me out of house and home. She normally eats the equivalent of one small can of catfood a day - I doll it out in thirds - breakfast, lunch and dinner. Today she's already had a can and a half. And if when I get up to go to the kitchen she will beg for more. She had lost a little weight and now she's putting it back on. It's getting expensive!

Now I think I'll watch last night's Jeopardy.

I swear, if I spent as much time knitting as I do sorting my yarn, I would have far fewer UFOs lying around. My cats love to get into the yarn stashes and carry it around the house.

Oh, thanks for the reminder to be grateful that Zoey has zero interest in yarn. I had a cat once who spent all night moving my yarn from the basket to all over the house.
