pics and links revisited haha.....

Ok here goes. Actually the spunk posted the last bit from a draft I started and thought Id lost when the puter froze..... OMGoddess he found my blog. *blank stare*.
oh Im so cracking up here hey. Oh well I guess he knows how I feel about him now.
So if your reading this ..... I do love you very much, you are my main man.
So apologies for no pics or links lol.

Here's a few pics as promised..... firstly some pics of my workroom,
as you can see I STILL havent unpacked. For some strange reason part of me feels missing cause of it, but it just hasnt been top of my list, as long as I had knitting here inside I was fine. Mind you I have started a "mini stash" in my bedroom in a spare drawer. I will have to rectify that, cause the whole idea of this workroom was that apart from the imediate thing Im knitting everything else stayed in that room. I have soooooooo many knitting books I didnt realise hey, I have a bookshelf in the that I will fill easily, when I pack em in there, atm they are piled on the bench and believe me those orange curtains u can see a climpse of ARE GOING... lol gross
Dont ya love the sign on the door......
So when the doors rocking, dont come aknocking
This is my back patio area and a small section of my back yard.

Pic of Brins and her new book from the op shop..........and the hounddog....
and a pic of my newest fav thing to do, Im addicted to mosaic... lol. This was my first thing I ever did, I will be putting a mirror in the middle and hanging in my dining room, as you can see the colours of the tiles match the wallpaper completly hahaha

Yanno Im exhusted after all that....

so the links can wait till later

ciao enjoy

Ahhhhhhh pics as promised and.......

The puter is up and running, thanks to my sweet sister Kim. Shes such a genius (in case shes reading this) and cause Im so blonde I couldnt do it. Well duh Im not a brainy person sometimes.

So Ive got some pics..... I can do that right ..... or can I ???? LOL
Firstly there is a pic of the front of my house. Notice the roses. They are like 30+ years old some of them and OMGODDESS they are gorgeous, some opening up to the size of a dinner plate too. Hey what you think about my fish tank in the wall. This separates the loungeroom and dining. Very retro.

Check this out for a light hey..... Ive never really seen one in a house before. I recall a caravan somewhere. This is on a brick wall painted green in my loungeroom. I think its a feature wall?

And heres a pic of my kitchen ....See the cupboard in the corner it swivels all the way around... sorta like a spice rack I guess..... the cupboards are all angled and sorta caravany in a caravany way. I personally think the original owners (who moved out a few months ago, dreamed of a gypsy life) And from what I hear they are travelling around Australia, so maybe the house was the preparation lol ...... Oh Oh Oh I have to show you the wall paper in my kitchen and dining... I love it

And a final shot for today of roses out of my garden.

I have to say I am soooooooooooooooooooooo happy here hey. Including the severe allergy to the privet bushes out the back that, that gorgeous spunk of mine is getting rid of for me tomorrow. Hes a gem hey.
At the moment I have the hound dog staying with me while the spunk gets a new fence up, shes so sweet too.
Brins is thrilled, she has a huge games room up the back she can play all day in. And being school hols I guess I wont see her much.... yipppeee (ooops).

Knitting wise.....

havent done much at all. hands hurt, trying to do swatches for once mentioned designer, but heck whats the point in making rectangles really, gunna pack it all up this week and send back with a sorry note. A woman cant function if nothing comes from it I say........ Or as I said to the spunk, look what I have been reduced to knitting..... sheesh. But I wanna make Skye a teddy, so thats next.... Just gunna do what I WANT for a bit. ... when I WANT, with no timeframes.

I have also learned mosiacs past month and I find it quite relaxing, so Im gunna do more of that now I have a big back patio.... (to be shown in next blog, with my KNITTINGROOM) and pics of yard. Am gunna make me a big table for out the back covered in mosiac.... just need a design or a idea atm.

Ok its taken me all day to get this done, had smell and the heff over and the spunk this arvo after work and picked brins up from her dads, so its now dinner and I wanna go sit for a bit....

ciao

Bought a drop spindle of ebay and it included a cd of instructions ( that between you, me and the garden gate I dont understand) Anywhos, thats the only cd thats been near my puter and I havent downloaded anything , but puter is broken now... Still trying to fix and atm using libraries cause the spunk is computerless too, but he rebooted his as in put his boot thru it lol.

Also moving to a new and bigger house in 2 weeks and its so retro 70's its so me haha.
Will get pics when the puter works and put em up for looksee

Skye getting bigger and last night crawled around lounge floor for her nanny. good girl. she will drive her mother batty, Paybacks a bitch I say.

knitting wise. I finished 3rd jumper for once before mentioned designer, using black kid mohair, loved it, hated it, made it, sent it, finished. Apart from that not much, finished Brins monkey I started a year ago and just doing little things, Hands are hurting too much to do anything really.

Ok My time is up, Im missing you guys, Im missing my podcasts, Im missing having my camera etc etc etc

Ciao.

Just a quick....

post.

Ok Im all over the lurgy thing. (I think I am anyway) Hit me real hard it did.

What have I been doing?????
well see here

this is what my Saturday arvo consisted off. The spunk has a mate thats a pilot who promised me almost a year ago to go flying... well due to him being overseas or me working or being caught up with Brins etc I have missed out till now.

I had a ball, well ok except maybe it was too early to go flying after being so sick and I had a sinus attack where it felt like a hot poker being stabbed through my eye. But hey what could be more pleasant than a arvo flying.

This is taken overlooking Kwinana, Western Australia where we live and


this is to the other side, Where the spunk and I wanna live.
OMG you all say, "you live near the ocean and wanna move away"......ummm hell yeah, we live near the refineries that use that ocean.... Besides, how can I have sheep and chooks here. I need space hahaha

And me scoffing myself with red wineover the school hols, Brins took this pic. Im on a red wine and junk food diet, Since giving up smoking 6 months ago I have put on almost 10 KILOS>>>>> OMGODESSS

Started the spunks other socks and have put em down for a bit while I make the heff some socks and Brins needs more socks, she outgrew the lovely ones Katt made for her. I need socks too. I made myself these and the spunks washing machine stole one. Its been 2 months and I still cant find this missing sock anywhere.

Today I officially became a student again. Im doing a tafe course for the next semester doing some business thingy.

And my biggest news, My hands hurt, like they really really hurt, esp my thumbs, Im having trouble knitting, I feel like its all gunna end. Maybe I just need a damn good rest of em, I dont know. HELPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP

Also in breaking news, look what the spunk bought for moi to use. I love it. A retro kitchenette to make more beautiful. Ok so it may not be ur cup of tea, but it suits his old kitchen really well. And besides I finally got more bench space lol.

Its taken me since yesterday to get the pics up so today is now Wednesday and the cherub starts back at school today, yipeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee yahooooooooo. And I have my orientation day at tafe. Mmmm wonder if theres a knitting group there, we are opposite spotlight haha.

Ok pics all done and Im off to get myself dressed.... wonder if I should go conservative or normal or dress as I normally do and scare eveyone off from talking to me.

Ciao all. Enjoy ur day.

Still sick but feeling a....

tad betterer.

Sheesh talk bout sick hey. Thought I was ready to die, wasnt just a slight cold as I thought. I think I had the flu, still got it but at least Im not feeling like Im on my deathbed today. I thought I was over it on Saturday and ended up back at the spunks, thinking I was ok. Then it hit my chest. oh golly gee. But today besides I still got the mucus thingy happening at least my brain feels like mine again.

So what Ive been doing besides dying, I made the spunk his socks for his birthday and its like a crime to get them off his feet, as I was finishing them off and sewing in ends etc, he was putting them on his feet. He loves them so much and Im sooo glad.Im atm making a 2nd pair so at least I can get these in wash more, lol. Made using Cleckheaton Country Naturals 8ply, I love this wool for socks as it has viscose and akkkrylic, but only 10% so just enuff to add some strength too. It also has like little slubs of a brown yarn all thru it. Hence the "natural" thingy. Doesnt look so bad mixed with Malamute fur either haha
I used the blueberry waffle pattern (google it) and have now got it downpat for his feet, my feet and brins feet sizes.

Also I made and finished a jumper for once said designer, using a silk mix yarn in like chunky. loved the wool, the colour didnt do anything for me, but loved the jumper when completed. I like doing this knitting, I get to knit stuff out of wool I know I would never be able to afford to buy myself.

I want to make me a jumper now, I bought a few weeks ago 18 balls of the wool Kmart had on special. I think its a 12 ply or abouts so I will start thinking bout what I want over the next few days and get that started. I have 12 balls of white and 6 in the pink.

We had a bit of a stormy few days 2 weeks ago and for those that read my blog last year would know we had a tornado hit thru our area in May last year that did heaps of damage. But this year we took measures to protect that we love yes its the Harley in the loungeroom. The shed it resides in started to shake and rattle, so we hauled it inside for a few days.

Ok well not much has really happened, its school hols here and Im on my bestest behaviour. lol Nah Brins has been really good actually, Poor thing was sick for a few days too0, shes going to her dads tomorrow for 3 days so Im soooooooooo looking forward to that hey, Me and the spunk will just chill out and enjoy the silence I think.

Oh I got a new puter desk, well actually its the spunks, His puter broke so I got the desk haha. Feels funny cause Its clean and doesnt have all my shit on it yet.

Ok Im gunna go and scoff down more chook and garlic soup and sit and knit his socks for a bit.
Ciao

ARRRRCHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Katt that sounds great price if you aint sold it already I will deposit the money in ur bank account next monday if thats ok. *blush* Bank is empty this week. send me a email with bank details. sharing my puter with the spunk atm... when they say to reboot it I dont think they really mean to boot it, but he did lol
Ok Im off to finish cleaning this place and getting rid of the not lived in smell and be back tomorrow

Tuesday, May 30, 2006

not dead yet

Im not dead yet, just havent been home. I said this unit was a storage unit. lol

Knitting wise. I havent done that much actually. Finished some little mittens for the heffs cold hands. Started and done the back of a sleeveless polo neck top for brins in angora supremo. From a pattern in a US family circle knitting book. Does anyone else have a prob with dry hands using this angora stuff. My hands are a mess.
Am knitting for a designer atm to make some pocket money and already ready to tear my hair out, feel like Ive lost my mind really. I cant get tension and I dont have a tension prob as a rule, but wow Ive dropped 2 needle sizes and its still 1/2 st out. Needless to say it is staring at me and today is not the day to attempt it again. So Im going to make me a black beanie and make my hands soft with some nice soft pure wool. I have a nice woven Harley D badge to go on the front of it.

Katt asked what I happened to the other kitties from the last post.... well Smell took one called George and Fred, Harry and cant remember the girl cats name went to 2 of donuts friends. All thriving and doing well. We tried to keep all cats in the family so to speak and from both litters, we all have one or 2 and friends have the others.

The spunks daughter turns 18 next week and Im sooooo not ready for that. I have to look for a gift yet and Im stumped, she really doesnt need anything knitted, cause she has some already. I was thinking some of those nice fluffy cushions from thingz or something for the back of her car. I will have to search next week and see what takes my eye.

I got the new Simply Knitting mag and yeah I liked a few things, Mel loves the bonus Debbie bliss book, shes decided it might be quicker to make Heff some things herself. haha. The new Creative Knitting came in handy on Wednesday as the spunk went to have a gastrothingy, where they put the camera down ur throat, and we got to the hospital at 11 and didnt leave till after 5 so with my knitting, my podcasts and the mag I was a happy camper for a few hours. I love the vest in there, just not the colours. The baby things didnt do anything for me but I enjoyed having a browse all the same.

The spunk has 5 weeks holidays starting next week, so I will prob spend alot more time there, but will try to get home and post as I can.

Ok Im off to ring this designer and ask what the hell as this pattern is not right..... Its sooo not me, Ive checked and had it checked to make sure I wasnt mad hehe.

Monday, May 22, 2006

yes yes I know.....

its been bloody ages, but yanno I am a busy woman...... mwahahaha who am I kidding.
So instead of just dribbling. I have a week and more of pics.
And some dribble.

Whats happening around here... well my hip still hurts, seems the injection of steroids and local anastuff didnt work and I will have to get another one done in a few weeks, until then, I have a new friend. Her name is Willow and shes my walking stick lol.
Had a ride of the bike, not bad if we stop every 10 mins or so, so I can stretch, u can see we are getting around fast here then haha.

Ive been knitting, scroll down to veiw a bit of that. well really I been doing a little of everything BUT resting.... I so get in trouble for that, but yanno I cant sit still. I have ants in my pants, well thats what my nanna used to tell me.

Like mother, like daughter I say. My matching book ends.
Giselle would be about 1 yr old now. Im not sure but she looked young when she came to us with child(s)
and then Miss Lulu is about 6 months. Very hard to tell apart except they have different mouths and that Giselle has a scar on her side still healing from being desexed.

ok onto knitting, firstly we have some booties I been making... all with sparkly bits or beads or sequins etc. gotta be girly. The heff has a small collection I cant get pics of atm. Also here is Brins red slippies I knitted and felted last week. I just need some puffy paint for the bottom to make non slip then some beads and sequins and shes ready to keep her toesies warm too. Just a bootie patterns, 2 strands 8ply wool bigger needles and felt.

Scarf I was making for the spunks daughter, its in spotlight's Moda Vera, "Parade" in purple. Brins also got a small one from the left overs and a pink pluffy one too.
Brins was also lucky enuff I got myself lost in spotlight and bought some of the Moda Vera in "Piuma" and made her this.... modelled by the lovely Mr Jim. Brins is fully into pompoms atm and heck for ackrylic this is surprisly soft and I will be making some more to sell.

The spunk went to the V8 Supercars here in Perth on mothers day and got me a great showbag thingy from the coporate box he was lucky enuff to be in. Great new knitting bag it would be too, with a bucket hat with V8 supercars on it. Also these lovely flowers came my way, Orchids too, so nice.

Also this week Kmart had a heap of wool 100% here wool going on special.... very nice I must say considering I laybyed like3-4kgs hahaha. but I grabbed these balls and made a long skinny scarf for me or to sell. I cant decide atm. Its a mix of reds, oranges and pinks

This wool is what I picked up at the op shop the other week. 12 balls shepard 8ply orange 100% wool and this alpaca, in natural colours for the spunks house socks.

Will leave you now with a pic of my oldest Commonly known as the doughnut cause shes always 'round. Taken at a nightclub here last weekend. Pretty nice pic, shes sooo vain though hahaha


Ciao for now.

Cost her $1.00, she also bought a ball of Fiddlesticks "gelati" in pinks for $1.50. Ive taught her well I say. lol


Next we have Skyes side to side jacket made from the cursed lilac merino bambino and some lovely aqua bambino. 1 strand each.... 3 lamb buttons adorn this jacket.

Ok Im off to knit for a bit before the little cherub wakes for her feed.
Ciao all

ok tried this yesterday but.....

I used all my broadband allowance in one day on downloading podcasts and puter was hell slow after that hahaha.. seee I said I was addicted to em.

Ok I said I was going to do a "shazzy wazzy wooo" story. So I will start with that.... Yes Shazzy Wazzy Wooo is me. Nickname for like forever.

I was born in Camden NSW in 1966 and am the youngest of 5 kids, I have 2 older bros and sis's. I grew up in the suburb of Greenacre in Sydney and attended school there and travelled to Bankstown to go to highschool. I went to a all girls highschool and spent alot of my time hanging over the fence or the balcony looking at the boys playing footy on the oval.

I was not one of the popular kids, but I had heaps friends and sat on fence I guess. I also played up heaps in class, was obnoxious, the class clown sorta and drank, smoked and swore alot. Also wore my own style of clothing, a x between bogan, punk, hippy and whateva else I could find. Funny thing is I still wear my own type of clothing, which some days makes the spunk cringe... its normal to see me in a bright green velvet skirt with orange jumper and whateva else I can put with it, like pink shoes. oh hade hahahahaha. Serious its true though.
I failed knitting and sewing in primary school and after my teacher yanked it all away. I indulged at home with my nanna. I failed first year sewing at high school and chose to do cooking instead. And heck I can cook. BUT yanno I can knit and am a creative person. I try my hand at almost anything and normally get the knack of it before I decide its not me and go back to knitting.
My mother was a professional knitter, she supplied local people and shops with knitted goods and the hospital with booties for the premies. But that was it, she wasnt my kind of mother. So I lived with my nanna as much as possible. My nanna was a crocheter and heck she would make the most amazing blankets, small ones and some that would cover 2 king size beds. Her place was always overflowing with wool and I guess thats where I got my love for it. My mothers sister are all creative too, with either spinning, knitting, sewing or other crafts.
My first knitted item we wont discuss to say it was a tea cosy when I was 7 at school and pffft.
The first knitted item for a child of mine was a little jumper in yellow 4ply feathersoft stuff I knicked from my mother and needless to say you would have had to have broken Fionas arms to get it on her hahaha. But the stitches were even and it was ok for a first try. Over the years I made a few other things, mostly jumpers for my little man Snotty, where as I would then ship them off to mother to have them sewn and the neck done.. LOL I couldnt do that.
Then I stopped. I took it up again 6 years ago when Brins was born and she was such a good baby I was bored as shit hey. I had been a career woman and sitting at home again was hell. BUT hey I love knitting.

moving on .... Im rambling here.... I have been married 2 times, both to soldiers and no I didnt learn after the first one cause my ex introduced me to my 2nd hubby. This is my 3rd time to Perth, only this time Im staying. I have also lived in Victoria, Queensland, Sydney again and travelled over most of the country.
Thats enuff of the crap for now. I will put other things up as they need to be revealed. Or as people ask questions.

Now for some knitting content.... Yanno I though this year I had been really lazy in some aspects concerning my knitting. I didnt feel like I have really accomplished much at all. So I sat and wrote it all down...
This is what I have knitted so far this year....
for Brin...
school cardi,
denim jacket thingy
jumper in red strippy yarn
hand warmers
scarf/neck warmer
a beanie and hand warmer in school colours (made yesterday)
lace edged hat
for Skye...
side to side jacket
cardi in fairisle stuff
2 hats
various...
square to finish blankie
1 sock for me (im gunna finish them this weekend maybe)
scarf in ostrich and flirt yarn
scarf for spunks daughter (not finished but will be today)

So Im happy with that small lot.. considering I have also finished sewing and putting together things I started last year too.
Things I plan on doing in the next 3 months include...
*Finshing Brins mystery jumper.
*Making some more clothes for skye including the jumper I have in my head atm and the hat I said I would make today lol
*Finishing my lone sock
*Finishing sewing up brins monkey(yes yes Im lazy)
*Making heaps hats and scarves to sell at markets (I need to destash somewhat and make money to buy more wool)
*Make me a jumper or cardi in some lovely soft mohairy stuff I bought last year from Ozyarn.
*Make some socks for brins and skye.
*Make the spunk and me matching socks with a harley logo on em (dreaming here)
*Make me a black beanie to wear under my helmet.
*Finish my olympic scarf to wear on bike

Sounds like alot to do, but Im gunna do it and heaps more lol.

Things that have happened this week include.... Brins being home from school. First week back from hols and she has a cold, damn that ex lol. Its his fault I say he had her the weekend. Im not feeling the best, think I am getting it now.
Havent seen spunk since Monday and am having withdrawals from him (hopefully will see tonight or tomorrow).
Finally got my ponds fixed after a suprise rent inspection last week, where I lost the plot and flipped my little lid. I have the aircon man coming today too. Amazing what can happen when you threaten to sue and call the media. haha.
Tomorrow I go to get the xray and ultrasound on my hip. Im hoping Ive just pulled a huge muscle or something cause I wanna go riding Friday with my man, and Im NOT missing it hey. I will have to be dying to get me off that bike. Im willing to cut down my riding now that winter is coming anyway, but I will NOT stop riding altogether, Sorry Doc.

Ok Im going to have a nice HOT shower and get in my daggy warm clothes cause its bloody freezing here atm
Enjoy ur day and come back again ya'll hear now
ciao

Monday, May 01, 2006

Just a quick....

one to let you know Im still alive...

firstly I have a pain sooo huge I wanna cry in my hip. (the pain not the crying lol). Ive been having pins and needles in my left hip for a few months now and esp at night I find it really shitty to get comfy. A few weeks ago it got painful and the spunk assured me the docs was where I needed to be, so I did and now I have to go have a xray and ultrasound on my hip on Thursday. He thinks it may be Bursitis or something like that. Google it if you wanna read more.
Im feeling like a bloody old woman now *sob*. Hence why no blogging has been done. I cant sit still for longer than a few mins at a time. Sooooooo instead I have found podcasts..... Oh my golly Im addicted hey. Does anyone else listen to podcasts?????? there are a few good knitting ones around and a few good comedy ones....

heres a link to some;
Cast on hosted by Brenda Dayne.. life and knitting
KnitCast hosted by Marie Irshad..life and knitting with interviews with knitting celebs
Secret Knitting hosted by Daniela.. This podcast you knit items along with Daniela as she tells you the pattern and what to do.... was kewl. I made a flower
AussieKnit hosted by Kate in Brisvegas
Chub Creek Hosted by Gary and Dave.... This is a comedy pod I think... quite funny and Dave can be found sometimes doing little knitting skits at Cast on.


Knitting wise, I made the heff a little side to side jacket. Im just finishing a scarf for the spunks daughter who asked me to make her a soft fluffy purple scarf... should be finished tonight. I wanna make a few hats to sell at the markets in 2 weeks and some more scarves.

Does anyone have a basic pattern to make a hat using feathers for a baby.??????.. or 46cm heffer head lol. I cant seem to get it right... it keeps growing at me. I would appreaciate it. I dont really fancy buying a pattern so a freebie would be great. Im trying to stashbust atm, and found some pink crap I wanna make the heff some hats etc with.

ok i be back lata and when I do Im going to give you the "Shazzy Wazzy Woooo" story

ciao

Tuesday, April 18, 2006

its finished... its finished....

Im doing a little dance here. Brins jacket is done, completed, finished. Heck Im in love with it too. Finished it on the weekend and besides the fact I didnt block but will when I wash it etc,
I think its lovely... (collar up view)
(proper view). Pic looks a little squiff, but its just the angle its taken on.

The spunk says Im clever ooooo, isnt that sweet.
AND I have enuff of the wool left over to make her a matching hat, when I get the chance. Meanwhile Ive been slowly doing some rows on the heffs little lacy jumper. Only a few rows since last entry.

Pics of the heff taken on Friday or was it Thursday, who knows lol. She was filling her little face with a bickie. Sheesh can that girl make a mess haha

Hope everyone had a great long weekend. We did, didnt go out riding but enjoyed the weekend at home with the spunks daughter. Its been a cold brrr few days ova here in the west. So sitting around snuggled up, with me knitting away was just what was needed.

School hols are on us and I am not gunna enjoy this, I can tell you. Already day 1 and Im outta pocket a few $$$ mmm. but we have hit the library and so shes got some vids, dvds and books to occupy her brain tomorrow.

Also to those remotely interested, smell has made her mummy a button to share. Shes gunna eventually redo my whole blog template for me but this is a start. Feel free to take from here just save to ur puter. I will get it permantly on the side bar when time permits....

Ok enuff dribble. as you can see this place is a bore.

Ciao for now
