So today, my daughter’s home sick with a little cold (emphasis on little<\/i>), and she doesn’t want to go anywhere, including the post office. This is bad, because I have three kits and some yarn for swap that need to go out. Fortunately, the hubby is coming home for lunch, so I can go out then. This is par for the course for him, good guy that he is.<\/p>\n
I’m stewing a little, but trying to keep the proper spirit of “this is why I stay home in the first place, to take care of my daughter, and that’s most important” but still sometimes thinking of all the stuff I need to do.<\/p>\n
I’m also thinking about how I have exactly enough yellow yarn to start ONE new Jayne hat, and my mondo shipment of yellow yarn isn’t due to arrive until Wednesday, and kind of mentally pacing.<\/p>\n
Last night, I started thinking, “I could use a nice pick-me-up, but I haven’t got a lot of extra dough. Maybe I’ll trade some of my yarn stash for stuff on my Amazon wishlist<\/a>. I’ll just go update that.”<\/p>\n I updated it some last night, then realized that the one thing I wanted MOST had mysteriously dropped off my wish list. Stupid Amazon! I tried to re-add it three times, with my husband looking over my shoulder, but the site kept telling me that the item was already on my wish list, although I clearly couldn’t see it. Stupid STUPID Amazon! Hubby agreed, quite the mystery.<\/p>\n So that’s the picture. Frustrated, plans up in smoke, irritated. And here’s where the eternal optimist in me wins again.<\/p>\n
