It looks like a little volcano or something doesn't it?  This is my second stripy hat.  It's actually finished but I didn't take a picture of it yet.  Today I don't know what I'll get done but I'll try to work on my husband's sweater.

Listening to podcasts yesterday was interesting.  Kimberly (The Giving Flower) went to a German wool fest. It was interesting and makes me wish I could go to one. So many pretty colors and it looked like fun. Sadly I'm trying not to buy yarn I don't need.  Right now I have the yarn for My husbands sweater, the ice cream pillow and the shawl for my secret sister so I don't "need" more.  Amy Beth (The Fat Squirrel Speaks) was funny but I don't remember anything specific.  The rest of the time I listed to Knit 1 Heat Too.

I'm not trying to be mean but the music teacher is not getting on my good side.  I'm sure she is nice in real life but the notes she sends home are worded badly to me. She has a big project for the kids to do for their final grade.  The paper that was sent home about it explained that there was a big project coming and that the parents can help but not do it for the kids.  That's fine but does she have to add that they need to spend more than five minutes on it?  I think she could have worded it better. The kids are supposed to build an instrument and present it to the class.  I hope she sends home more instructions on how the presentation should be made (she was vague in the note).  It actually sounds like a fun project but I just get this weird vibe from her notes.

The weather has been slowly warming up (it's in the 40's not the 20's) but I haven't been sleeping well.  Today it's a bit overcast so I just want to crawl in bed and go back to sleep.  I have to leave in about an hour to take my son to an appointment so that is not a good idea.  I'm just whining now so I'll stop and  see you next time.
