my morning so far

Moomin's breakfast.
My coffee and graham crackers.
Moomin's lunch.
Stuff Moomin into clothes.
Stuff laundry into washer.
Harangue Moomin into putting his pjs away, hang up bathrobe, eat all of sandwich today, turn in homework. Cuddle him. Listen to his Thing of the day which is Mt. Everest. Look for Everest book. Fail to find it.
Stuff Moomin and Rook out the door.
Look for staples to staple magazines. Nope.
Shelf where staples last were. Full of junk.
File papers
Sort through shelf of borrowed books and books to go Out
Put away books
Put away more books
Put away cowboy pistols
Put away bits of legos and stuff
Do some dishes
Clear off table
Wipe sticky table. throw away sticky papers.
Put all the crayons and pencils from the table into separate places.
Jo's books. Squid's books. Garnet's books. A video from Barak. Hmm.
Pick up dishes from all over the house. And soda cans.
Sneeze a lot.
Collect clothes in a bag to take to knitting party (swap meet, too?) And books.
Hang up everyone's jackets. Put more mystery laundry in hamper.
Make grocery list.
Resolve to buy yarn today, and knitting needles.
Put away food from the morning. Consider food situation.
Add more things to grocery list.

I fucking refuse to go buy staples when the house is so full of crap and I know I have at least 3 boxes of them hidden somewhere.

Knitting has become majorly cool here for no discernable reason. There are smart knitting groups like book groups and glossy magazine articles listing famous people who knit .. no one would be seen dead doing tapestry any more.

It will be the best trend ever! I want to knit covers for all the things in my house, separately. And then a cover for the things that are alike. Finally a huge snood for the entire house.

I learned to knit about a year and a half ago, and I really enjoy it. I was shocked at how easily I picked it up, given that I have always thought of myself as bad at arts-and-crafts. Probably my proudest accomplishment: a felted tea cosy. Looks really snazzy.

I don't get how people can do it without paying attention... Though I did master the granny square years ago. Knitting seems harder.
