K, for Knitting!

hahaha! Why didn't I think of this title before! ;)

This morning I went to chat with the mommy group at the daycare. It had been 3 weeks since I went and it felt good to be back with them. Even though it took me more than a year to have the courage to go, it's nice to get to sit down and have coffee with them! :) Of course having the kids at the daycare for free while I'm there helps too! Can't say we are rich right now, Carl still hasn't found a job and well... the bills will keep on coming.

I think I'm going to have to talk with dh and ask what he wants from me? Does he want me to work or not? I mean, since he's not looking much... I thought he wanted me to go back to school in Feb? I don't know anymore. We sure aren't on the same level right now.

At the coffee and chat group, I was REALLY happy to see a friend there, I haven't seen her since before dh came back home. She is one of the only people I know who is genuinely happy for me that dh is back home. She understood me when I shared that I've been uncomfortable since he is back hme though. She hugged me when I told her that he still sleeps in another room. She gave me hope that the future can be a happy one. I'm so happy to have seen her today! :) If she wasn't there, I was going to call her and God knows I HATE calling people. I'm thinking of inviting her over for coffee before the holidays, she's just so nice. I'd like to see her away from the daycare once. Just 'cause! :)

I've been knitting off and on for the past 2 days, seems that the instructions I had for my knitted block weren't all good! UGH! Well I have to make 6 squares instead of , that's not too bad but now I seem to be almost out of yarn and I'll be missing one square. I think I haven't knitted the right size so the squares won't felt up well and then I'll have a weird looking cube.

You know when some days all goes wrong? Well, the other day I started to make some knitting needles and then the dowels broke off. I start to knit a project and all goes wrong. I want to make paper but the instructions that came with the kit are all wrong. More so, I shouldn't have bought the freakin' kit after all. All that money out thae window and we sure don't have that much money to throw away like that! ;(

But then again, that's me! I like to buy the best things I can so when I craft I'm sure that having the best products can only help me right? UGH! You need TALENT, Jo! Talent, I do not have! I dream of becoming a Martha Stewart but she ain't in my body that's for sure! LOL! I want to be good at everything I start but get bored when it'S tough and just leave the projects as they are and quit. Then start up a new craft and quit and the wheel just keeps on turning and turning.

I know I'm ramblings but this is MY diary! :-P

Gonna go knit a dishcloth for my own pleasure! :)
