Finished

I know I promised pictures, but the camera battery wasn't charged, and I wasn't waiting for it to do that.  I wanted to pop that bad boy in the mail.  As was expected, my Dish Rag Tag box showed up right when I was going to get the kids at school.  Typical!

I cast on as soon as I got home and whipped that rag out in about 2 hours.  Not bad!!  It came out good enough. 

My pretty package contained some lovely mini skeins for my blanket.  Clearly the tagger had been doing a little light internet stalking to pick something she knew I would love... It paid off and I love my yarnie goodness.  I want to hug my little babies.  They will get their pictures taken once the camera is back in commission.  (Waiting, it is good practice.)

The picture on the card was of rabbits... I am not sure if that was an accident or on purpose.  Either way it cracked me up. 

Now, my part of the game is over.  We are in the lead, but it is still any ones game.  So, we wait.

Great, just great

Great Googly Moogly... Dishrag Tag is starting. I am super excited about this. Teams are assigned, and my team is the only one that has even started posting in the forums. I am thinking we are very enthusiastic. This is so great. (I just realized that we can not see the other teams forums, so that we can strategize. Duh.)

As I was tooling through my teammates, I checked out their blogs to see what they were about and what not. They all seem totally cool. THEN...

I tooled by my blog just to see the public face. It occurred to me that the post that was fairly current was the one where I discuss the state of my underwear. GREAT, just freakin' great. Yeah, I finally get traffic on my blog and I am talking about my underwear falling apart.

So, now all of my teammates must think I am something. I am not even sure what sort of something they might think I am... I want to say, listen, I am not what ever bad thing you are thinking.

I am sort of just a Mom, apparently with bad underwear. I hold a post graduate degree, I used to have a real job and make money. Now I have a pretend job that doesn't pay well.

So, don't be sad about having the crazy one from IL on your team. I am ok, motivated, able to knit AND purl. I will finish my dishrag in one maybe two days, depending on the kids schedule. I live near a postal handling facility.
