Progress on the "Don't Cage Me In" socks.  The colors aren't my first choice but it looks like it's turning out well.  I added five stitches so it will go over my heel.  I usually only add four but the pattern is in multiples of five.  It think it will be o.k., I'll keep you updated. I also started a pair of plain self striping socks so I would have waiting room knitting. My daughter likes it and wants them.  I told her no but it won't bee to long before her feet are as big as mine and then I think she'll steal my socks.  It seems like I always have quite a bit of yarn left over so maybe after I finish mine I can make her some short ones.  I'll have see when we get to that point. I did ask for self striping sock yarn for Christmas so this could be fun.

I've been listening to a lot of kpop lately.  I listen to it when I'm writing my story and yesterday I ended up watching lots with my daughter and critiquing the videos. She enjoyed the time we spent together but I'm afraid I'm overdosing on kpop. I'll have to listen to something else to even it out.  We have been enjoying Modern Farmer and are waiting for the next episode.  

I'm still working on NaNoWriMo.  I'm up to 13,396 words at last count.  It's 21 pages.  I don't think I've written over a 10 page paper.  Of course talking takes up room so that's part of it. It doesn't even have a title yet. It is taking up most of my time so posts will probably be sporadic.  This is an interesting experiment.

Parent teacher conferences went well.  The weather is getting colder but it is November. I think that's it.  I'll see you next time and hopefully there won't be so many days in between.

This was another "Oh no! I'm broke and there is a birthday coming up." The girl this was for had a life size baby doll (it was weighted and everything) and I though she would like this.  The flowers all have pins so she could put them on wherever she wanted.  I did all these things in one day.

I'm up to 400 views!  I think it's people from Malaysia since I have a lot of views from there.  I wish I could say something wonderful about the country but I really don't know much about it.  I can locate it on a map which is more than some people I know.

I did enjoy watching Flower Boy Ramen Shop.  I love Lee Ki Woo's character.  For me he saved the show.  I would put the show higher on my list except for those horrid first episodes.  I found out that the new movie that TOP is in will be playing about three hours from me.  It's only playing in about 7 places in the U.S.  I'll have to wait for it to show up on Good Drama or Hulu or something.  TOP also released a new song.  I saw the video and it is kind of disjointed and surreal.  It was so weird and not what I was expecting I couldn't hear the song.  I listened to the song without the video and I liked it better.  It's not as catchy and a SHINee or Super Junior song but I don't hate it.  There are some YouTubers that go by the name Eat Your Kimchi.  They did a backstage interview with SHINee that is only 2 minutes and very superficial but what is more interesting is the explanation of what they had to go through to get the interview. 

Today I plan to play WOW.  I realized that my level 90 can work on achievements so that is what I plan to do with her.  I'm still lagging but when I'm leveling it's not too bad.  Maybe I can get some of my lower toons leveled up. 

I split my time, yesterday, between spinning and working on the sock for my husband.  The sock was big so I had to rip it out and start again but I like the pattern.  My elbows are still a little sore so I'm trying to take it easy.  The other thing I need to do is some sewing.  So many projects so little time. lol

Here is a shawl that I made for one of my sisters.  This is the Eva's Shawl pattern (free on Ravelry).  I have made this pattern many times and really like it. 

Yesterday was Kdrama day.  I finally finished the last two episodes of "Shut up and lets go" (or "Shut up Flower Boy Band").  It's about a group of high school boys in a band and how they deal with loss, love, music, and just growing up. Of course there is a love triangle (I have not seen a Kdrama that doesn't have one).  A coming of age/ slice of life story.  When I saw the first episode I hated those bratty boys but the rule of Kdrama is you need to watch three episodes before you decide.  I will warn you the second episode throws you a serious curve ball. By the end of the series I got a little weepy.  I'm not sure it will make it into my top 3 but it was better than the first episode made it seem. 

My husband has watched Kdrama with me before, in fact he is the one who picked "Boys Over Flowers," but we hadn't see any in a wile and even though we are kind of in the middle of "Faith" I wanted to see something else.  So I had heard that "I hear your voice" was good so I wanted to try it.  We sat down to watch and it felt like we were thrown into the middle of the story, which happens sometimes and you pick up the pieces of the story as you go along.  It was harder than usual to understand and my husband kept saying it wasn't making sense and he didn't understand why people liked it.  There were flashbacks which was weird and so I planed to ask my Kdrama group on Ravelry if it was a second part to something else.  Finally were almost done with the episode and my husband makes the comment "this seems like the last episode" I told him to check and sure enough Hulu had played the last episode not the first.  I was so frustrated.  I'll watch it some time but it is now at the bottom of my list. 

Next Kdrama day I will either go back to "Running Man" or finish up some other series I was in the middle of.  Today is a WOW day.  It's also a cleaning day because I spent two hours on the phone with my sister and didn't get anything done.  It's not her fault, If I had said I needed to get off the phone she would have understood.  I just have a lot to make up for today now.

I got one ball finished in the granny baby blanket.  I also got the colors set up to make the monsters for my daughters class.  Being a WOW day I won't get much done but it's ready if I get around to it.

I found a Kpop song by that I think may help me work out once the weather gets to cold to go outside. It's "Bar Bar Bar" by Crayon Pop.  I don't like the song particularly but they do a lot of jumping in that three minute song so I can't see how if I follow their moves I won't lose a little weight.  I told my plan to my family and my husband watched the video like it was a train wreck an d basically said "if it gets stuck in my head you are in trouble." My daughter said if I did that I had to keep the blinds closed.  Thanks for your confidence in me kid.  Can you tell my family loves me? :)
