Adventures in housewifery- that's a real word. I looked it up. The baby has precariously placed a mug on a stepping stool near the dog bowl so that she can push it over onto an unsuspecting, eating dog. I see she just missed her chance.
The kitchen smells like vinegar sheep, and cherry Kool-Aid. This will teach me to buy superwash wool in the future. Ugh.
I'm dying yarn. I do it every once in a while just to see what will happen. This is my 7th attempt. Some turn out better than others. I'm making a baby sweater out of one of my creations. I gave one ball away on a yarn swap. I redyed one today because it didn't please me the first time. The new one today . . . well I'm just not sure how that's going to turn out.
I read that white wool makes bright colors and grey/light brown wool will make deeper jewel tones. I bought this wool yarn the other day in light brown imagining a deep/rich wine color with shades of ruby and deep pink intermixed. What I think I'll end up with is a molten mess of mauve. Not to worry I can always redye.
I washed the dishes today, which was about as far as my housewifery went.
I should have folded and put the laundry away, put in another load, vacuumed and organized one of the many projects I have to organize. Pooh.
I didn't even get up til noon. I blame the cold and flu meds.
