So we all rolled over and one fell off.....

Well my husband started his new job today. As I drove him to the airport the weather was nice and pleasant. On the drive home we encountered nothing but thunder storms. It was outside exactly how I felt inside, which was weird. I'm sure the kids will keep me more than busy though. Hopefully I'll have time to knit! I do have moral support from my friends. Although far away it does mean a lot to me that they are there... oh how I long for the days I can come and meet for coffee, sweets and knitting too.

Ok, sorry I haven't gotten my digi-cam fixed and there is no photography in my blog. I'm going to have to break down and buy a new one. I have no clue what's wrong with the damn thing. It takes pics but when I connect it to the computer the computer won't read it. *shrug*

I'm still on the same sock I was working on a few days ago... I'd put a pic up but well.. you understand. :( If you want to see the link to where I got the pattern off knitty go here.

Time for CSI and sock! I'm almost done with it. A few more foot inches and the toe decreases finshed with a little kitchner.

Ok so there I was wearing only one argyle sock....

HA! right!

Today has been a no knit day for me even though tonight was knit group at BAM. I just didn't feel like making the trek through the construction detour. I guess I'm kinda bummed knowing my husband will leave here in two days to do training for his new job. His schedule has been changed twice. He was supposed to have left yesterday, first change he was supposed to have left tomorrow... change two has him leaving thursday. After that I won't see him for a month. At least thats what they said. He's going to school in Italy and before he goes to Abu Dhabi he's flying home to get his tools. *shrug* Even though he'll be gone a considerable amout of time I feel that this new job will be good for the family.

Currently we are living in Ohio. This isn't quite exactly where we want to end up. After we both were completely out of the service we decided to go back to Ohio(where I grew up) to spend time with family. The more we stay here though the more unhappy I am and am reminded as to why I ran off screaming to join the Army in the first place. This city has a way of dragging you down. Making you feel like youre in a pit of despair that there is no escape from. Luckily for me I know better. I've seen the beautiful mountain sunsets, smelled the fresh(er) air and fondled the silk roving at Table Rock Llamas yarn store. So we've(mainly me) decided to move our butts back to Colorado. I think though we should wait till the begining of next year. I still haven't broken the news to my family yet. I'm kinda nervous to. I'm in my 30's and still feel like child sometimes. Oh well.. I know I'll find a way to turn it into a positive for them.

I think I'll go and do a few rounds on the sock I'm doing now and find something on the tube. Yahoo is being exceptionally crappy today.. whats up with that? I posted a messaged to a group hours ago and it still hasn't gone through.

Take 2

Ok, I've tried blogging before. After a few(ok only one) attempts at figuring out my orginal blog's pass word I gave up and created a new blog. Sorry no pictures to add at this time. But currently I'm working on a pair of socks. I got the pattern off the Knitty website. It's called Broadripple. This will be the second pair of socks I've done from this pattern. Hopefully I'll have my camera working soon so I can snap a few shots of them. Ok its 2am.. time to hit the hay.
