Kitten Belly

I’ve been eating too much lately. I’m not talking about seven-meals-a-day-gonna-get-fat, but when I do eat (lunch, at work) I end up with the ginormous portions that make me feel too full like I need to lean back in my chair and rub my belly for a half hour. I don’t like it, but I keep forgetting that I don’t have to eat everything. I never used to have a problem being picky. I blame it on my sig.oth.

OK, so I’m leaving for the weekend to go to a knitting retreat put on by the Crazy Girl Yarn Shop so in my car is a box filled with yarn, needles, reference books, mastery instructions, all the unblocked swatches I’ve knitted so far, two dowels I plan on making into needles while I have access to woodworking tools, and some clothes, I think. I cannot wait to see my mom, and I cannot wait to spend the weekend knitting with her and a bunch of other people who will undoubtedly be able to give me some advice on my mastery stuff.

I called the shop today to see what classes and whatnot there would be this weekend, and she said the consensus was that everyone wanted a loosey-goosey environment, so there will be polymer clay to make buttons and bead stuff to make stitch holders, but not scheduled events. I don’t know if I’ll love that or hate it, but I’m just jazzed that I’ll be there. I doubt there will be any ability to remote blog, since we’re at a camping facility, but then again, I rarely blog on weekends!
