august eighteen

The light blue (with the tid bits of white) is my 58th square. (I mentioned yesterday that I thought it was my 57th square, but it's indeed my 58th square). And the 59th square is cast on. This blue yarn is a mini-skein hand dyed by Perfect Day Yarns. I have a few more mini-skeins by her that I plan to include in the blankie.

This morning, Sean broke my glasses. You see, if Sean wants me out of bed, he hands me my glasses. This morning he handed them to me. I put them back on my dresser. I must have dozed off, because the next thing I knew, Sean was trying to put on my glasses and snapped off the arm. I hope they can be fixed, they are my fave pair.

Today was a good mail day:

I received my order from Faery Fiber. My friend Tammy in Alberta (who spoiled me in a previous round of Secret Pal) dyes this yarn. It's yummy delicious. This is a DK yarn in The Boy Who Lived colorway.

I also ordered Sybil in sock weight.

And Molly.

And Vampire.

Today my sister watched Sean for a bit while I did some work for the shop. By the way, there are only 4 spots left in the September Sock Club. Four more, and that's it. August kits will be shipping in the next 48 hours, so stay tuned if you've ordered one!

I visited my sister's new house today, it's very lovely. I can't wait to see it all settled in and all unpacked.

This evening I dropped off the pre-registration forms for both Mack & Sean's swim classes. I'm hoping they get into the class of my choice (Saturday morning over Sunday morning, but I'll take either as long as I get into one day for both boys). It would be Mack from 8:30 am until 9 am and then Sean 9 am until 9:30 am. Jamie will stay with the boy who isn't in the water. I plan on doing both swimming lessons. Jamie doesn't really like going into the water. I'll find out either tomorrow or Wednesday if I got into the swim class of my choice for the boys. I'm very excited to see how much Sean has progressed over the summer and to get Mack into the pool. I'm also probably going to sign up for Aqua-Strollers but this time with Mack and my mom will watch Sean while I'm taking the class. It'll be good to help get rid of the "baby fat".

My A/C isn't working and it's deadly in my house. The guy is supposed to come tomorrow to take a look at what exactly we have for a quote for replacement. It's quite hot, and I hope that it's fixed soon. I hate the humidity, so this is just putting me into a foul mood. I've also showered three times today. Two of them were really cold showers. At times like this I wished I had a swimming pool.

Still watching Monk. I'm almost done Season 3. Onto Season 4. Can. we. say. addicted. to. a. good. show.? It's fucking great. I heart Monk. He is too funny.
