Dumb & Dumber

*Gee, so I go incognito for a few weeks while we have guests and now I've posted three times in the last two days? I must have missed y'all!

I am turning the heel of my German flag socks (Regia Nation). Or should I say was turning the heel . . . It's a short row heel and I got all the way through the first half before I realized I was putting it on SIDEWAYS! Urgh. I was not smart enough to put a marker at the beginning of the round because I though, "It's just stockinette around. I don't really have to worry about the exact beginning." How dumb. Even dumber is that I happen to think that my Mardi Gras socks twist when I wear them because one of the heels is just a stitch or two off from center. Crap.

Oh, and I mentioned to Katrina that I missed everyone at Knitting Guild last week! Actually, I missed everyone because I was there on the wrong day. LOL! Hope to see folks this Thursday, though. :)

p.s. Anyone on the Westside want to carpool to see the Yarn Harlot on Sept. 6?

DOH! I thought I was the only one that had days/weeks/long stretches of time like that!

I think it is directly related to parenthood because I clearly remember having a pretty sharp mind just a few years ago. Now I have days where I have trouble even answering things like "What's your home phone number?"

And if I lived on the Westside, I'd most certainly carpool with you. :)

I totally agree that it's related to parenthood. In fact, I can only remember one other time in my life when I was this scatterbrained--so I actually stopped and bought a pregnancy test on the way home!!! It was negative (as expected), but I just couldn't imagine what else would make me such a dunce for the last 6 weeks or so. *sigh* Hoping I'll snap out of it, soon.

When the knit is the easiest is when I make the most mistakes. Go fig?

I am SO THERE to carpool with you to see the Yarn Harlot.

As far as being scatterbrained, I have a theory: you lose brain cells exponential to how many children you have. Be grateful for those moments when you can actually snap out of it. I remember them fondly.

Aw, I'm sorry I missed you (both on the actual day and the non-actual day). But for sure I'll see you at Harlot!!!
