I made this shawl from yesterday's handspun.  It's Age of Brass and Steam and it's free on Ravelry. 

Yeah! 700 views!  Thanks guys.

I'm posting so late because I wanted to finish Secret first.  It's different from what I usually watch which is mostly romantic comedy.  It had some interesting camera shots.  I'm not sure if because the plot of the first episode revolves around a car but I feel like there are more than the usual amount of scenes shot through a window (not the whole scene but the beginning or end).  It also seemed like someone was trying to be a little artsy in some of the shots.  Something bad is going down so the scene is filmed in the dark reflective tiles of the ceiling so every thing looks upside down, that sort of thing.  The one thing I predicted did happen but I couldn't predict much.  The "naughty girls" said rock bottom was about episode 10 and I agree.   The show has a satisfactory (to me ending) but almost turns into a comedy for the last five minutes. I think I would recommend it.

Ok on to other things.  For about 14 years of marriage I have slept on the same side of the bed.  We rearranged the bedroom and I ended up on the other side of the bed.  You wouldn't think something like that would make a difference but it does.  It feels so weird.  I'm sure I'll get used to it but until then I don't think I sleep as well.  The kids got new shoes and my daughter got some pink zebra high tops.  She loves then so much she slept in them.  I have a cold starting.  My nose is beginning to look like Rudolph.  I feel like I spent the day yelling at my kids.  My son ruined a couple of ornaments because he wanted to see how they come apart and my daughter seems to suddenly get head achs or stomach achs whenever it's time to clean.  I got the storage room organized and I finished my husband's socks.  Ok well they aren't finished yet because I haven't woven in the ends yet but other than that they are finished, pictures to come later.  Now it's time to start on the test crochet. 

I think that's it for tonight.  I want to vacuum before it gets to late.  I hope I sleep better tonight.  

I spun this yarn in July of 2012.  Tomorrow I'll show you the Shawl I made from it. 

Yesterday I went to get the tire fixed.  I took my husband's sock to knit wile I waited.  The people came to inspect our apartment.  Technically we failed.  It was because the utility closet wasn't clear around the water heater.  The reason it was a mess in there was because every thing got thrown in since they were coming.  I will straighten it out tomorrow and they will inspect it again on Monday.  I know I'm weird but that stressed me out.  I ended up doing more or less nothing from then till today.  I did watch kdram and frog a sweater I have been meaning to frog for a wile.  The pieces are soaking and hanging in an attempt to get the wrinkles out. 

The drama I've been watching is called Secret.  It's different and I would call it a melodrama .  I would love to say all my feeling on it but I really don't want to spoil.  I started it yesterday and I'm on episode 9 now.  Basically it is the story of a woman in love and the bad choice she makes for that love and the fall out around it. The other girls in the Ravelrey group (I call them the "naughty girls" because some of them are about their biases) were call her a doormat and in need of a spine.  I disagree.  She is naive and made one critical bad choice but other than that she is doing the best she can in the situation she is in.  As a supplement to this story is the decent of a man from idealistic and noble to power hungry and malicious.  There is a scene that is very interesting where he is watching something unfold and his look of anger and madness as he is laughing and crying at the same time.  It was kind of creepy.  I cried so you might too.  If you are looking for this be careful because there is another show with the same name (I think it's Taiwanese) about music school or something. 

A wile back I made a purple sweater from a plus size crochet book I got for .25 at the library.  I had interesting bell sleeves but other than that it didn't have shaping as it had one button at the bust.  Because it was a cotton linen blend I threw it in the wash on cold and laid it flat to dry.  There was a mesh section on the sleeves and it stretched so the sleeves where very weird and big.  I've been meaning to frog it for a wile now but hadn't gotten around to it.  I signed up to test a shrug an it calls for the yarn that is in the sweater (well dk weight) and so I had motivation to frog it.  The designer has made a new stitch so this should be interesting.

As a side note to be clear, most of the pictures I am showing are older unless other wise noted.  I didn't know if that was clear.  Once I run out of old pictures I will put more in progress ones of what I'm working on right now.  I think that's it.  I'm writing so late I may not really have much to say tomorrow.  Sorry.
