I made this hat with some Easter Egg dyed yarn.  I tried to add less vinegar so it wouldn't be so neon and it turned pastel.  It was my first attempt at self striping and I think the repeats turned out short but ok.  The pattern was Spring Spirals Beanie by Tasha Walsh, it's free on Ravelry.  The fit of the hat feel weird to me but I don't know if it's me or the pattern.

The last two days have been weird.  My husband was home both days which is really unusual.  On Monday we watched some shows from the U.S. I knew that was going to throw off my schedule but I was not expecting Tuesday.  I get about sixish (more or less depending on how badly I'm sleeping) hours of sleep.  I know this is fine or even a lot for some people.  For me it's a little light.  I'm usually fine but about every two weeks or so I get, for lack of a better word, prickly.  I feel like yelling at people for just breathing near me. When this happens I say something like, "I know it's 8 o'clock but I'm going to bed now," and wake up the next morning fine.  This happened yesterday morning.   I got the kids off to school, which some days is smooth and yesterday was not, then I was just done.  I decided it was better to go back to bed then yell at my husband for nothing.  So my whole day was off and I got nothing but the most basic of chores done.  No WOW, no Kdrama, no podcasts not even regular TV.  I am glad to back to my regular routine today.  I even did my exercises, that I skipped on Monday, and everything. 

Today will be Kdrama day.  I'm going to watch more episodes of Flower Boy Ramen Shop.  I really want Yang Eun Bi to end up with Choi Kang Hyuk.  I'm so afraid they are going to end up being siblings or something.  It's the opposite of Your Beautiful. In that I wanted Go Mi Nam (or whatever name you call her) to be Hwang Tae Kyung's sister so she could be with Kang Shin Woo.  I didn't feel that way with Fabulous Boys.
If you like Your Beautiful I really recommend you see Fabulous Boys.

I'm going to spin today.  I did get pretty far on my husband's sock.  I think I'm almost done with the first one.  I really like this pattern and plan to make socks with this pattern for the whole family.  The only thing I don't like is since I'm magic looping it starts with a purl on each needle and I'm not a big fan of purling.  I did get one of the Shepherd's costumes done so I could show the pastors wife and see if that was what she was looking for.  She said it was fine so I'll make the other two that she gave me. 

I think that's it for today.  Sorry about skipping yesterday.  I feel like I'm back on track now so this should be good.
