Mending Monday, A-Z


(Stu)diously I’m trying to research and follow gentle treatments for UTIs. It seems to be working. I’m still tired. But the pain is less. I didn’t bike, piano or diamond painting today. I did manage half a row of knitting. But even that was too much. A lot of naps.

But we did get our new sofa delivered and set up. I didn’t take pictures. With the furries we covered it up immediately. But it is nice for extra seating and even sleeping.

Between my daughter, Heather, who gifted us a nice amount for Christmas, my brother and son for putting it together, I feel so fortunate. 

Now I need to get past unwell and back to energy.


(R)eviewing the creative week.

Yay! I’m more than halfway finished. The sea is done. Into the sky.
Birthday socks. The Fleegle Heel increases are nearly finished. There’s a chance I could finish these this weekend.

I’ve finally added vocal warmups to my music time. And as of today I actually accompanied myself to Somewhere Over the Rainbow, and God Bless The Child. True my voice was weak as my concentration was on playing. But I take the win that I sang the words. That’s one more line to keep track of.

I seem to only have a half hour on the piano. I’m working increasing my time. I think I’ll try a few quarter hours in the evening.

This is working on the exercise bike. Increasing time or mileage in one sitting. But then grab a ride here and there helps.

And now the daily walks around the yard with Milo, I’m feeling healthier.

Eventually Meandered


Evidently, I am behind on my muddling meander of the alphabet. For instance, I’ve gone rogue in hushed tones. I just thought how easy it must be to keep caught up and doing it legally. Must I remind everyone how busy three furry new friends muddle our senses and mess up our sleep?

Well, there you have it. I think I’m up to date. Sorry for the lack of creativity. Happy A-Zing, everyone. Check out the real site at AtoZChallenge.com.


Yay, Z!

I don’t know why this was a tough month. The challenge was extra challenging.

You would think the alphabet could be easy. It’s not been that hard in the past.

But so had Camp NaNo. You want to know how far I got on that goal? Zero. Zip.

Yep, once again editing, writing, and my podcast and piano goals got nothing but yawns. Yippee!

But… Yarn got a lot of attention. Many socks nearly jumped off the needles. I seem to have a lot of zest for knitting.

Oh, well. Zippity Do Dah!

Linda’s Stream of Consciousness Saturday

Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is “show.” Use it as a noun or a verb. Have fun!

Plus, I think I am on the letter

#AtoZChallenge 2024 letter X

It seems obvious:

Where’s the show?

X marks the spot.

So, I guess it’s a creek of Consciousness. I should at least show I have a mind to follow. 

Still, nothing is coming up.

This xes out the whole process. Sorry. No show today.😥

Viewing Shogun all day today was a valiant effort. We binged all ten episodes. So soon after reading (listening) the book, it was interesting to see how well it was interpreted. Now, on Monday, I should receive the older version with Richard Chamberlain. I advise if you can, to read the actual book first. I did in the 80s. But I wish I had read it more recently. But my vision isn’t good enough for the printed volume.

Meanwhile, I have a bunch of socks nearly finished. My hands have been hurting with the weather changes. So not a lot of progress on any of the projects. But here ya go:

Still working the arch.
Getting ready to do cuff and cast-off.
Another cuff and cast-off.
I’m trying to make sure the ukulele strap is extra long because of the curling of Tunisian Crochet.
Almost finished with the bottom fourth. Didn’t even work on it for two days. I miss when I don’t get to play with my diamond painting.

Now off to recorders and ukulele.


And

#AtoZChallenge 2024 letter U

Ugh! Unfinished Month with uncomfortable letters to use unabated unhelped, unusual in an upside down universe!

A to Z Challenge S,T


#AtoZChallenge 2024 letter S
And
#AtoZChallenge 2024 letter T

Straight up, I’m trying to catch up. Still, this causes stress.

Story is ‘Socks’ is my favorite ‘S’ word. Stitches, tidal pools, stars and star fish.

Tuesdays and trying. Striving to be better, smarter. Singing in trios, or solos, spending time with my friends.

Show tunes, swimming, trays full of drills, reading Shogun.

Streaming thoughts. So many things unsaid, the train skipped the tracks.


#AtoZChallenge 2024 letter Q
#AtoZChallenge 2024 letter R

I don’t know if I’m behind or how I got there but I’m seeing others beyond R and I’m barely think of Q. 

For some reason I feel like streaming. No plan or plot is showing up. I feel like the queen of lazy. No rhyme or reason.

Since I’m tired I’m in a quandary both mind and body wants to quit. Be quiet. And seeing no rescue in sight, I’ll go with the Monday que: what’s being made?

I’m calling this one, Shooting the Curl. Still working on this bottom section. Lots of black and dark drills make it tough. But tomorrow lighter colors promise an easier paint.
Nearly finished. Heel done. Just ankle and cuff left.
Decrease of heel but nearly finished.

Finishing arch heading towards the heel.

Watermelon yarn caked and ready to start a new pair.
A new challenge. How to repair a heel.

And

Another challenge:

Figure out how to make these fit better. Tinking for start.
A zombie needs assembly. Thanks, Yve.
And a Christmas gift in April (my favorite kind!) Thanks again, Yve!❤️ Aren’t they cute!

Time for Duolingo then 🎵🎶

Finishing Friday


#AtoZChallenge 2024 letter P
Didn’t get enough time yesterday so Pictures will lend a weight.
Almost finished with the bottom of what I’m calling, “Shooting the Curl.” Yes. Another beach diamond painting.
My mixed slipper socks are at the increases for the Fleegle Heel. I like the arch ribbing I learned on the no-show sneaker sock.
I seem obsessed with Sudoku. I’m already on 35 of the new book.
Said new book.
I’m finally on the decrease part of the Fleegle Heel of the cotton socks. These I’m testing the elastic thread to strengthen the heel. That thread is hard to work with.
These are slower but turning out nice.
My daughter is making a pair out of this yarn. It made me so excited I had to find this watermelon yarn. With seeds built in! I have to wait for the fine needles to be free. But I can’t wait to start!
I found Kindle books for my Ukulele and
For my recorders. Just for something new to fiddle around with.

None of my music pursuits are quiet.  But I need to get busy on them. So I have to quit writing.

And oops! There’s
