It&#8217;s always fun being with her.  Down side:  I&#8217;ve been more tired since Stitches and now I really want a nap, but I know that we have to do homework, etc., before going to a family reunion this evening.  I&#8217;m looking forward to seeing everyone, but it&#8217;d be more convenient if it weren&#8217;t on a school night.  Whatcha gonna do, eh?  I&#8217;ll just tank up on coffee afterward so I&#8217;m able to stay awake and kick undead butt in D&#038;D tonight.  I&#8217;m going to have to find a place to set up my laptop that won&#8217;t exacerbate my back, which has been acting up for the last few days.<\/p>\n<p>Man, I&#8217;m just falling apart, aren&#8217;t I?<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/93468786@N00\/3483379401\/\" title=\"knitting notions lichen 2 by emisanboo, on Flickr\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/farm4.static.flickr.com\/3375\/3483379401_bde8541771_m.jpg\" width=\"240\" height=\"180\" alt=\"knitting notions lichen 2\" hspace=\"5\" vspace=\"5\" align=\"left\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/93468786@N00\/3484128782\/\" title=\"knitting notions lichen cu by emisanboo, on Flickr\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm4.static.flickr.com\/3392\/3484128782_920e6e20e0_m.jpg\" height=\"180\" alt=\"knitting notions lichen cu\" hspace=\"5\" vspace=\"5\" align=\"right\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nAnywho, here&#8217;s another little beauty from the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.knittingnotionsonline.com\/\" target=\"blank\">Knitting Notions<\/a> booth.  This is 420 yards of their kettle dyed superwash merino.  I was really impressed by the color quality on their variegated yarns.  This colorway is Lichen.  This is right up my alley.<\/p>\n<p>I really didn&#8217;t buy that much actual yarn, although there are a few I&#8217;m kicking myself over, like this <a href=\"http:\/\/www.yarnandfiber.com\/catalog\/product_info.php?cPath=22_943_972&#038;products_id=6505\" target=\"blank\">Madeline Tosh sock yarn in Frida from the Yarn and Fiber Company.<\/a>  It&#8217;s not my normal fare at all, but I went back to it three times.  My usual rule is that if you find yourself going back to something three times, then you&#8217;ll probably think about it when you leave and you should buy it.  I should have listened to myself.<\/p>\n<p>Okay, I&#8217;m taking five while my daughter snacks on brie and crackers, which has become her new favorite snack.
