Knit Diva

Me and my obsession has come a long way since last couple of years... I definitely still consider myself a beginner and always looking to improve my obsession. I think it is my "CALGON"... It takes me away from my busy life with a wonderful husband and 8yo twin boys... YIKES!!! I never understood how addicting yarn could be until I started knitting.. I have crochet for some time on and off but I never felt attached to it as I do with knitting...

Saturday was ME Day!!!!!

Hubby and the boys went racing for the day... I had the WHOLE day to myself!!!! I really needed a day to myself... In my past post, you know how my couple of months have been.... I would have went yarn shopping but I swore to myself that I needed to finish my Zephyr Glee tee before I started looking for other projects...


So what was a girl to do all by herself.... (My next BEST thing!!!!) Clothes shopping!!!! Hubby and everyone close to me is quite sick of looking at my clothes that are showing sides of me that I would rather not show the whole world...LOL!!! Crack kills ya know... ROFL!!!! In the past year or so, I have lost a total of 60lbs. I thought to myself that I couldn't keep blaming my extra weight on having twins anymore since they are 7 yo....hehe


The past couple of months my husband has been sneaky!!! He has been throwing away underwear that I wore when I was pregnant with the boys.... I know that is embarrassing...LOL!!!! Every time we would go to the store he would say, "GO BUY SOME UNDERWEAR THAT FIT!!!!!" Of course, what women would not take the offer to go buy some under garments...hehe I would have to go home and throw away how many ever pieces that I bought from my drawers....ROFL!!


(Anyway, enough on the underwear escapade!)


I went clothes shopping to about 6 different store Saturday to find that I am really not happy with the fashion designers..... I am OK with the 80's retro look!!!! I am not OK with the shorts!!!! I can't tell you how many shorts I tried on but it was A LOT!!!!! The fashion this year is SUPER LOW or BOY SHORTS!!!! I do have to admit that I do have a little junk in the trunk that I am OK with and I wouldn't change it... The super low shorts are so short that it hits your pelvic bone... (How is that suppose to be enjoyable???) I have a backside so I would have to get a size bigger to fit the bootie and then they wouldn't fit in the waist... GRRRRR!!!! I like my shorts to hit my hips but not 2 inches below my hips...


Boy shorts are cute but I would like to have a little more variety.... I did find a couple of shorts at the Local Old Navy!!!! Thanks Old Navy for thinking of me!!! I like the retro 80's cotton short dresses like this but the leggings that are back in are not for me...

Well, enough on my ranting... I didn't break the bank or anything but I did come out of the day feeling refreshed and with some cute outfits... It felt kind of nice to spend some ME time!!!! I haven't had that for some time and it was nice... After I came home from shopping I sat my but on my fav chair and watched 2 movies and knitted... It was surreal and I enjoyed every minute of it... I think all of us are entitled to a day of ME TIME!!!! Ü Pictures coming your way...
