Holy Hell! How did it get to be the 29th? I mean it seems like I was here only yesterday... did I sleep through a day... did I forget to hit publish yesterday and my last post just drifted into internet eternity? No... no sign of a post yesterday..... I know I talked about swimming but that was yesterday... have I grown a beard... did I miss a day.... did I over sleep... seriously oversleep???? I have no idea how the last two days disappeared without my knowing it. I have been spinning... Lincoln and it is the worst damn shit I have ever spun in my life..... sorry for the swear words but honestly it really is horrible. I threw the whole works in the garbage cause it looks like stuff I would have spun ten years ago when I couldn't spin as good as a duck could! I am supposed to spin a 3 tpi 2 ply yarn... OMG... it's bad, just plain bad. 2 tpi and 2.5 tpi... but not 3tpi... I finally spun a 3 tpi today but the darn thing is so over spun that it looks like a cork screw in the skein.... no U there that's for sure. It is the coarsest Lincoln I have ever spun and I'll be honest, the hair from the tail of a horse would be nicer to spin. Yuck... with a capital Y. So now I have used up all of my Lincoln wool. I am relying on a friend to supply me with a wee bit of Lincoln to get me over the hump... honestly if someone had never spun Lincoln before and then spun this, they would never spin Lincoln again.
Meanwhile the keyboard is working.... so soaping it up and the rinsing with distilled water and cooking it in the oven did not hurt it.... I can't tell you how happy I am to have this keyboard back and working again... the other old one was a misery.
That's the end of my complaints... sort of.... I am having a bit of a down day today... my poor body is in a terrible state. I swam yesterday... and loved it... it truly was lovely in the pool yesterday. Just the right temperature and not too many people. There was a class of octogenarians learning the front crawl (I hope I never have to worry if my boobs are falling down through the leg of my swimsuit like theirs!!! Still it was cool to see the old gals learning to swim... mind you at the rate I'm going I'll never need a personal floatation device cause my boobs will just float and save me from drowning... : }) And... I swam a whole kilometre. 40 lengths... at 25 metres a go. It took me 47 minutes. Today though my body is saying Stop! so I didn't do my usual 20 minutes on the exercise bike. I will try the bike again tomorrow. Still all that swimming felt pretty damn good but that was yesterday.
Ok something really strange is happening to my mind.... this is not the 29th..... so why is my damn computer saying that it is the 29th..............................................................................................................

HA HA... very funny Teapot. He changed the date on the computer.... (I'm sure he is trying to secretly make me think I'm losing my mind....) well for a moment he had me going pretty good. I really thought it was the 29th... but no that is tomorrow... I know, because this is not Knit Night. And besides... Mom goes to Crib on Wednesdays and then Dad comes for a visit because he doesn't play crib "with all those biddies"... and he was here today, so that must mena that it is Wednesday... the 28th... right! I also had my Confirmation class... (of one) come this evening and that was supposed to be a Wednesday appointment. And another reason... Saturday is the 31st... this is only Wednesday... I just have to do the math. But for a moment I actually thought I might be losing my memory... it does run in the family you know... hmm, that explains things eh?!
See ya tomorrow... I'm just going to go have my brain checked.... I need to know if any of my brain cells have left for warmer climes!
