MY BELLY BUTTON LOOKS LIKE A CARROT!

MY belly button - looking rather like a carrot

I started the Goddessknits Anniversary KAL today and after puzzling about how to cast on decided to try the Belly Button Cast On, as found here. The theory is that the solidity of the heavier yarn supports the first bit of the round where there are just nine stitches and too many needles. It seems to work - I'll let you know!

JUST A BIT OF FUN FOR TODAY

Blue:

calm and controlled. Also very sweet and get along with others well. Sometimes others do not understand why you are so nice and think you have a hidden agenda. If you do...thats to bad, but if you don't you have nothing to worry about!

Well, the calm and controlled would be nice!

OUT OF CONTROL

I am totally out of control! This happens to me occasionally but I can never see rhyme nor reason why. Today I have eaten at least 5 packets of crisps - I don't like crisps, I'm not hungry. I have also eaten the remains of a jar of drinking chocolate. Why? Who the hell knows. It's like I go on self destruct and, even though as I'm shovelling stuff down my throat I'm disgusted with myself, I seem powerless to stop it. At least when I had bulimia I threw it all up again - now it just sits inside and festers.

I've been thinking about writing (as opposed to doing it, which means that we'll be short of cash again this month!). I have the witches book all researched and ready to go, and the memoir, and thoughts about something else.

The memoir will have to be shelved, given the re-estrangement from my daughter. Not the happy ending I had hoped for. The witches don't do it for me at the moment. The other idea - ach, can't be bothered.

Life is shit sometimes.
