diamond patterned afghan

I made K an afghan back a few years ago, with his favorite color green + variegated brown. The old thing has finally reached the point of "no repair" – I didn’t even dare to wash it for fear that it would fall apart. So, today I started taking apart the old afghan, and using the yarn to make a new afghan. I couldn’t find the pattern that I used for his old one, so I rooted around until I found a similar one.

And, you may ask me – what are you making him a new afghan for? Well, I’m just that kind of wife.

Or I don’t like sharing my blankets with anyone.

You’ve known me long enough – what do YOU think my motives are?

Anyway – C was home sick from school today, and I spent my entire day sitting on the bed, watching Law & Order: Criminal Intent, and taking apart his afghan and crocheting the new one.

Have to see p-doc (ha ha, no pun intended) Wednesday, because every night since I started the Trazodone, when I cough at night, I wet myself, and this is the FIRST time anything like this has happened. And, too, it is very embarrassing for a 39 year old woman to piss the bed.

I think it’s gonna be an early night. I have eaten NOTHING all day (except my iced tea), and I’m still not hungry, so gonna get as many miles of this mood as I can.

Tattoo is healing well. It is to the itching stage, and old ink is coming off to make way for the new ink. (That sounds really retarded, but I don’t know any other way to say it.) Was determined that the Jergen’s lotion that I am using to keep the tattoo moisturized is the culprit in giving me the red dots, just an allergic reaction.
