I Really Did Not Want To....

Oh what a beautiful morning....

Seriously, the sun is out here in New England and it's a beautiful day.  Mind you, it's cold, very very cold, but it's New England. It's supposed to be cold in New England in January.



So I decided to brave the frigid temps and go shopping today cause it's supposed to snow tomorrow, but, avast, my plans were foiled because my car battery is dead.  My lovely neighbor came out to help me, but we couldn't get the poor car to start running.  Now I'm waiting for Triple-A to come bring me a new battery.

It's funny how things work out because to be honest, I didn't really want to go out in the cold today at all. I do love New England, but I really hate going outside when the temp is below freezing. (Yes, I am a wuss)

So what does that have to do with the price of tea in China when the lion on the savannah decides to lick it's paw?  Well, it's the Law of Attraction.  I did NOT want to go out in the cold and I have been putting off going to the store for a few days because of it.  Because I was thinking about it and really feeling that I would just do it tomorrow, when I finally did get around to it, of course, it couldn't happen because the universe knew that I wanted to stay home.

I know I sound like a complete and utter nutter, but seriously.  Have you ever been thinking or worrying about something so much that eventually it happens and you find yourself saying "I knew it!" Or have you ever had a time when you were so focused on something, something really good that you really wanted and made you feel good and then poof, it's yours? That's the Law of Attraction too.

We attract what we are think and feel.

I guess that means that today I should start thinking and feeling the weather to warm up a bit and the car to be fixed by simply a new battery.

Baby, it's cold outside!

Baby, it's COOOOLDD outside!!

No really, it's really cold out there. I don't know what's up with our weather, but it's only November and it's so cold that I don't want to leave the house.  I wanna stay inside where it's nice and warm.

Best part is I don't have to go out today because I work from home.  Bwhahaha.....I love that.

Today I've been spending some time figuring out a few things about the language of HTML.   What I've learned so far is I know jack about HTML except for how to identify it and how to shake my fist at it. I'm very good at shaking my fist at it.  (the cats stare and think I've lost my mind when I do this!)

The famous Odin stare (he does this daily)


See, I want to update and reformat my blog and website and make them really snazzy, but I need to learn a little more about HTML so they'll look good and not shi**y.  I should probably sign up for a class or something.  Maybe I'll go look into that later.  It's not like I don't have a million other things to do already like pet the cats, finish this blog, eat something, continue knitting G.'s Christmas present and what not..

I am totally having an ADD day, but I'm home, I'm warm, I'm working and I'm happy.  

Oh look...one of the cats just walked by!

Rainy Monday

Woke up to rain, pouring rain.  On days like this, I like to hole up in my house, make a big pot of soup or stew, bake bread and knit or read.

Today I choose knitting.  I started a scarf for my fiance with yarn that he picked out when he was here.  So far, I'm enjoying it. :)

Knitting is relaxing and it's so cool when you finish a project and give it to it's intended. People usually ask me where I bought the item, be it a hat or a scarf or anything really.  I get such delight from telling them that I made it.  Usually they are shocked, unless they know me and know that knitting is just another one of the things I do.

So here's a photo of the unfinished scarf:


I think everyone should knit! Think of all the people you could impress with your handmade gifts?  Heck, you could make your own stuff and impress them with that too.

Well, it's time for me to get back to working on my scarf.  :)  I hope everyone has a great afternoon.
