I can't stay awake and when I'm technically not sleeping and have my eyes open, I have the brain power of a neglected philodendron.
In brief - bear's exams continue and he continues awesome.
Car had MOT and huge service and it not only passed but they gave us a really good price. It's In n Out at Stanningley, Leeds and I can't recommend them enough.
I bought yarn. I shouldn't have bought yarn. But it called to me...
I've set it aside for this really easy pattern here. It's a very basic easy knit jacket that will be brilliant over lighter sweaters in the winter. I've got the yarn in front of me because I didn't finish the dark scarf for the garage but I've almost finished the light blue scarf and once those, the scarves for my brother and his partner and my sweater are finished then I can start on the jacket. Fortunately the Women's Euros are coming up, a football tournament that I plan to watch as much as possible.
I'm trying to write but, as I mentioned above, my brain is the equivalent of a drooping geranium. However I posted an article on my blog here about whether I use AI when writing. I don't, partly because I'm nervous about new tech and I'm not sure how to use it and partly because I'm not sure that it would work with my attempts at writing.
Hopefully this will stop being normal soon.
Hugs and good health to all.
Sometimes I think just resting with your eyes closed is as good as forty winks. I like to play easy listening music and I usually nod off
ReplyDeleteThat works for me. I've a 'hood and neck pillow' combo that will cover my eyes and I can doze off in the armchair. I play rain sounds on YouTube to help.
DeleteIs Bear almost done with the exams? Sounds like he's really rising up to the challenge!
ReplyDeleteI love your description of your brain. Mine feels quite like that lately
Bear finishes his exams on 19th June, thank goodness. He isn't stressing too much that I can see, so I'm hoping all goes well for him.
DeleteI used pebble yarn for a poncho and it was great to knit with. I'm searching for a light bright superchunky for a cardigan pattern I've got in my sights so I'll check out sirdar. I'm not keen on football, but hoping for knitting time during the tennis season.
ReplyDeleteThat's reassuring! I can feel a need to knit a poncho calling loudly. Good luck with the superchunky. That should knit up lovely and warm. I got mine from Knitting Network, but be aware that the marketing emails that follow are relentless!
