Weather and yarn stuff

We did get some heavy rain and some rumbles of thunder overnight, but no leaking! Yay! And it was the kind of thunderstorm that you just snuggle down into the covers a bit more and drift back into sleep. :-)

It looks like it's going to be a fairly cloudy day today, so I don't think I'll be working on anything ::mumble mumble mumble:: (secrecy required here--someone reads this IJ that mustn't know! hehehehe!) that requires good daylight.

Should probably do this morning: wash dishes.

Would like to do today: play "Disney Fairies: TinkerBell". I bet Fairy Mary is not going to be happy with me--I didn't play yesterday at all, so I didn't accomplish anything. No darts for me?

I must not start another knitting or crochet project until I finish something I'm working on now!!

I have three dishcloths moving along nicely. I have the super-secret project I need to start Real Soon Now (I don't consider this starting something new--this is an already-begun-in-my-head project; Scott Cunningham said that you've already started doing a spell when you've begun thinking about it and planning it out in your head). I have that crocheted bathmat I need to finish. I am not in a hurry to finish the knitted Mango Scarf. That's something to work on while Cat'r reads to me. I don't need it until autumn. I'd like to finish the Baby Banana amigurumi at some point.

Other UFO's: knitted mixed-media summer shawl; little pale-blue knitted fuzzy keyhole scarf; loom-knitted rib-knit warm yellow scarf; green-and-white Beth's Little Star afghan.

I have lots of yarn packaged up with labels as to what it's intended for. At some point I want to make a Jayne hat for Cat'r! hehehe He said he'll wear it if I make it!

BUT: after I finish Mama's two washcloths and ::mumble mumble mumble::, I want to get started on a hat-scarf set for charity. It'll be for winter, for Solomon's Porch. I have the yarn here and want to get started. I just don't know if I'm going to knit a hat in the round or crochet. For a guy I'm going to use one strand of black worsted weight yarn and one strand of army green WW yarn held together--homemade camo. Should be nice and warm!

So: lots of WIMs (works in mind), WIPs (works in progress), etc. Yeah: WIPs sounds *much* better than UFOs (unfinished objects)! :-)

I'm sure I'll knit or crochet on something today--I have the urge!
