She takes a bow

Thank you all very much for you comments and compliments yesterday. Yes, it is a magnificent shawl, and it was fun to do. I did end up going and seeing the show yesterday. I forgot to take pictures, which is annoying. There were some lovely shawls there. There was a wrap by Evelyn Clark, who wrote the Flower Basket Shawl that has been popular on the blogs. She also writes some patterns for Fiber Trends. That was fun to see. There was a stunning woven wrap (#17 for those of you who are local) that I just loved. Very, very cool.

In other news, Shana has finished her Vogue Cabled Cardigan. It is so nice. I can’t wait for mine to be done!

Healthwise, I am doing better. Although, I’m still so tired I’ve been taking long naps. Those naps have been accompanied by nightmares. I’m getting quite sick of it. Two days ago, for example, I dreamt that I left Nate because I found out he was sneaking our 3 year old off to the orthodontist, and I didn’t notice ’til she came home with headgear. How random is that? And why would I find it divorce worthy? I woke up spittin’ mad, and my day just wasn’t the same after that. This has got to stop.

Of course today, after the nightmare that I won’t go into involving many dead birds, I dreamt that Stephanie called to tell me she was coming to Seattle on her book tour, and wanted to hang out. I even got to talk to Joe. The only bad part about that one was waking up. No, I’m not obsessed with Stephanie. Remember the orthodontist? My dreams are wack.

    a couple of years ago I got really sick and was on anitbiotics.I had db pneumonia.anyway after the meds kicked in I did get better but I had really bad dreams and I was not fit to look at for about 3 months after I was sick.Maybe the medication you are taking doesn’t agree with you.Hope you get back to your old self soon ;0)

    Yes, your shawl IS magnificent!
    We have a family story that we like to haul out every so often….I was sick and on medication, when one night I woke up and sat up in bed and realized that my husband was a yellow inflatable rubber raft!!! Still can’t explain that one! Hope you are better soon!

    Well thank you. I wish I could blame my nightmares on medication, but I’m not taking anything, and I haven’t taken anything. So it’s just my brain.

    That shawl is a magnificent piece of work, Laura!

    I think we’re all obsessed with Stephanie! Please take care of yourself. I wonder if some of the sleepiness is due to the time change? I still feel as if my body is out of sorts, and I wasn’t sick. Dare I ask about Cable 8?
