Sock Progress, Diet and Things Not There

Yay! I have made some decent progress on my sock, and even tho I am stumped on one section - at least it appears that I have been trying to accomplish what I am sure everyone thinks is impossible for me to do. Finish a knitting project! =) It is rather annoying that I have 2 blue needles and 2 purple ones I am knitting with and they do not all color coordinate, but I am gonna bend the rules this time and just get the friggin' sock done - I will think of it as maintaining 'feng shui' by knitting with 2 blue and 2 purple needles. Altho, honestly, part of the time its more like 2 blue and 1 purple or 2 purple and 1 blue, but..............

ANYWAY!!!

Today has been a pretty good day, even tho I haven't been feeling quite my normal spiffy self. I think its the drastic reduction in chocolate intake that has done it to me. But one of my resolutions is to lose some weight, and even tho chocolate tastes heavenly, I will try to have some sort of will power over it and drink some green tea instead *feeble yay* Normally, I do love hot tea, but normally I would have it on my terms - not as a substitute for something else I would rather want *heavy sigh*

The last two days have been a bit stressful, as I have had my husband tease me any chance he could get about a goof up I made. I know, I know.....thats what husbands are for, right? lol I think it was a mistake anyone could make - I saw a big clump of mud on the highway and thought it was a turtle. Granted, I had just thought on our trip to NYC not long ago that a Wal-Mart bag was a bird, so I suppose it would appear there is something either #1 wrong with my eyesight or #2 wrong with my brain. My husband apparantly decides that is must be the latter and so proceeds to go on about EVERY friggin' thing that we see on the road.

'Wow, there is a turtle....... no wait, thats just mud'

'Wow, there is a box turtle ..... no wait, thats just a BOX'

UGHHHHHH!!

Ya know, he should be glad his wife sees the beauty in things not there! Oh wait, did that make sense? lol

And let us not forget "Cows In the Mist". Which I still think is a cool idea.
