Its all true, the boogie girl is real, and you've found her. She knits, sews, spins, does pottery and writes it all down in this blog.

Packed and ready to go
I'll be without my trusty internet connection over the weekend. Don't cry for me. I know its a sad and tearful problem but I'll be ok. I won't be able to have my Sunday morning coffee while catching up on blogs. I'm changing the subject before I get teary. I need to remind myself I will still have the computer with me so I won't feel so lost, but I have a feeling it will mostly be used as a DVD player for M's cartoons.
I snapped a picture of a few of the projects I had planned to bring with me. Highland Triangle and V's sweater are staying home. Kate was shy and didn't want to be photographed. 
I looked at this picture a few minutes ago and I removed a few of the items. All are to be used for socks. Really, even if I had a whole weekend to sit on my butt and knit, I'm not getting all that done or even started. I am a bit delusional, but its a happy kind of crazy. For those curious about the secret projects. Here's the yarn. I'm bringing these with me to have secret knitting time on them.
The red/pink yarn is a new acquisition. That's for me hopefully. Notice my lovely invention to the left of the picture. 2 pencil erasers and a piece of esprit holding them together to keep bamboo points safe. I'll do anything to make my needles happy. I might actually go out and buy myself a decent looking set of point holder/protectors if I don't think I'd rather have yarn. 
I leave with a quickly snapped photo of a rare moment in our household. The oldest dog is not biting M and M is not biting her. They have rare moments of getting along and not torturing one another. Have a great, sunny weekend.
