Your Brain is Blue |
Of all the brain types, yours is the most mellow. You tend to be in a meditative state most of the time. You don't try to think away your troubles. Your thoughts are realistic, fresh, and honest. You truly see things as how they are. You tend to spend a lot of time thinking about your friends, your surroundings, and your life. |

Me?
I'm not so sure about this one, especially the "mellow" part...

Holiday Knitting...or how I won't be done in time
Here I sat thinking I was soooo on top of all the holiday knitting and then it happens...I remember someone I forgot. ARG! On top of that, I'd put some things out of my head that need to be washed and blocked before they can be given and that hasn't happened yet, either. What was I thinking? Where did I think this time was going to come from? How did I think woolen things would dry in just a day in an Oregon winter? Good grief! I should have it all knit, but the things that have to be mailed aren't making it out of here until next week.
That's not the only way the mail has jinxed me this year, either. Maybe the reason I'm behind is also because the things I ordered online either showed up late or haven't shown up at all yet. That could definitely be part of it! I know one person is getting something totally unexpected, because something I ordered still isn't here...let's just say that I'm much faster at knitting socks than I used to be, but I can't knit them if the yarn isn't here yet! In the past, I've been a heavy holiday internet shopper...can't stand the bustle of the walk-in stores during the holidays. I've always had great luck with it, even ordering at the last minute. I think someone or millions of someones, to be more correct, have caught on to my plan and are using it themselves. :} Lesson learned...order in October! :)
Dog content: Not much, which is really a good thing. It means no dramas and everyone is getting along fine. Can't wait to get a treadmill in January! It should help run off some of the stored energy that happens in rainy weather. Until then, we take soggy walks and wipe off bellies. Ethan is back to the very loving, sweet red boy he was as a puppy, though he still greatly dislikes dogs outside his pack...boys, what can you do? Libby, the queen of manipulation, has pretty much guaranteed her position as bed dog for life, so she's happy. And Savannah, just like all little sisters, enjoys thoroughly annoying her older "siblings" in any way she can. Man, that girl can bark, too! But she's also "dangerously cute", as her grammas say, and she's very cuddly when she can manage to sit still. A very loyal girl, for sure!
I hope to get some project pics and some puppy pics over the long holiday weekend...probably figuring I'll have more time than I really will again with Friday being Hubby's birthday...but I'll try!
