indulgences

I'm sick. S has been sick. We've been stuck in the house for days with all this rain. So last night I indulged myself by curling up on the sofa with the tv, some banana pudding, my second crinkle sleeve, and the telephone. I knitted and called in votes for American Idol for hours.

I fell asleep with only the sleeve cap left to go.

Oooh those sleeves are so pretty. I love the stitch pattern.

Who did you vote for (love the way the sleeve is turning out)? Hopefully, Taylor (my fav) and Elliot.

Feel better soon--can't wait to how the sweater comes together. Even in pieces, it's gorgeous!

Feel better, Alison.

Sorry you're sick, but your crinkle looks great! I must have one! And the Cotton Glace comes in such great colors too.

But who did you vote for? I am pretty disappointed with this year in general ... I don't really care for any of the remaining Idols.

Go Elliott!

Feel better, and here's hoping you see some sunshine soon.

I love that crinkle pattern.

Love the stitch pattern -- the sleeves look great! I'm sorry you're sick, hoping that passes quickly!

I've lost interest since Chris left. but I think Elliot is a sweetie and Taylor sure looks like a good time. Love your blog. nancy

Feel better soon!

Feel better!

Who were you voting for?

Loved Taylor last night.

Hope Elliot isn't out tonight.

I hope it comes down to Taylor and Elliott. I liked Chris the best.

Spongebob Lego is finally on the Lego Canada website! The boys already are asking when I can order them some!

If Taylor Hicks wins, I will be disappointed in America's judgement, and probably questioning American Idol's credibility. I agree that he has some talent, but IMO he is an entertainer and better suited for my hometown of Las Vegas than to be an "American Idol".
I voted for Katharine :)

Rest up & feel better! I wish we had more rain over here! We could certainly use it.

Ugh, I was sick this past week too so I can feel your pain. It was so bad for me on monday, I couldn't even knit:( I hope you & S are feeling better:)

Posted by: beth at May 18, 2006 6:37 PM

oh...that's is so gorgeous. I'm trying to find out from English website, if I can just order that pattern with out the whole catalog.
Get well soon.
I've heard about all your rain, I trust your home isn't in the flooded zone.
