sassy update, oh snap!

OMG..I'm running late but needed to put this out on the blogosphere!

Sassypants Knitter has 36 subscribers!!??!!! OMGAWD..holy shitballs!!! I've recorded the 2nd episode, Holy Bedazzled Hotcakes, and will be uploading it tomorrow as soon as I get all of the notes written for it. But seriously, OMG..had no idea that people would listen to me and like my ramblings and blatherings?!!

Other than that: I'm working a LOT. The downside to being therapeutically gifted is that it's just you, no one else can do the work..just you...and that can be overwhelming.

Luckily, I'm seeking solace in knitting. kaykaycutiepie's turtles are coming together nicely. I frogged the sock I blogged about earlier, hence naming it the "Cheap Ass Sock" and have casted on Flying Arrows. It's in Magic Loop, cuff down, and right now, I'm just starting. If you hear cussing and swearing it's just me...I'm working my skills up for Sock Warz V, where defeat is imminent but I want to put up a good fight at least.

Okay, a bit late I know but here are the things I am thankful for, catching up from the last time I posted:

• Jazzercise (hello, wats better than dancing)
• Time with AwesomeTash & BabyBro this weekend
• The gift of a very patient Super C
• My work..still astounds me that I do what I do....
• My Mama and Papa...they are just awesome

Okay that's all for Tuesday, hustlin'-fru, out!

A sassy start!

Well before Turkey Day,
please enjoy my first ever podcast.

I'm going to tackle posting it to itunes tomorrow!

A very special day, indeed!

Today, BayBay kitty turns 8 years old! This fuzzy wonder girl had no idea the amount of joy she brought into our lives when she joined our family! We adore her, she is our angel, our miracle kitty who's a fuzzy fighter!
Today, BabyBro turns 26! I remember when he was born in Macon, GA. I cannot tell you how proud I am of the man he has become! To say I am proud of him is an understatement!

uh hmmm..

I should be getting ready to go to work...beh! I'd rather blog instead!

Okay so what can I tell you about this week:

• BabyBro and AwesomeTash are in town, en route to their move up North. I get to see them tomorrow!
• Work continues to be plentiful and fulfilling.
• I am working on the podcast. I have gotten wonderful help from Gnat and have an idea of cost of hosting the show and have been pestering Cooter (who, by the way, shall now be known as SuperC) to help me play w/ recording software.
• Entertaining the idea of logos. You can hit SassyPants Knitter to see what I have in mind. Mind you, it's a rough draft but it may be what I go with in the mean time.
• Also, back from last November, I shall list one thing I am grateful for each day of the month. So here it goes:

1. My improving health
2. My ever-patient, loving husband
3. JiJi Toonsie running up and down the halls in the morning
4. BayBay kitty fussing at me when I come home
5. Internet access at home

I encourage you to take some time and list what you are grateful for this month!
Fru-out!

Hello Monday or no rest for the wicked...

A quick note before I hit the ground running!

• Jazzercise this AM was awesome.
• I've downloaded Audacity which is supposed to be a user friendly way to create and edit podcasts.
• Gnat from Barknknit has been awesome in helping me find a place to host my podcast goodness.
• Now I just have to talk Cooterroo into letting me use one of his old gaming headsets...we are going ghetto here, bebehs!
• Had a wonderful weekend filled with knitting and rest, knitting and rest.
• Now I am off to watch some miracles!
  

Sass & Knit by SillyFru

Ladies and Gents, I present, "Sass & Knit by SillyFru"...the name of my first EVER podcast..that I haven't even made yet...

but I'm gonna do it..and it's gonna be...wait for it...legendary!

Holiday shopping commence-a-con

I hope everyone is recovering from Halloween Goodness. I, for one, enjoyed a day of knitting and reading and relaxing and ....holiday shopping!

Yes, I'm one of those people who try to get things done b/c I don't like crowds and would rather get friendly w/ the UPS guy instead of the Rent-a-cop at the Mall.

Probably the kewlest thing I discovered yesterday is that you can download a shit ton of yarn pron-knit related podcasts through iTunes for free. I blame this really on barknknit I was listening to her podcast and thinking..."hey..I could do that..I want to do a podcast". So I'm doing research right now to see if that's even possible. Think of a podcast from me as an audio version of my blog, if you will. You'd just get to hear my voice and my silly ramblings about all things important to me.

Speaking of me, here's something that I'm working on:

My first ever toe-up socks using the Magic Loop method. hello, it's hella easy?!! Next attempt will be of two socks at once on one circular needle! Yes, I am that much of a knitting badazz ninja.

I've also been working on KayKay's turtles. I've made two..and since it takes no time to crank them out..I'm gonna aim for two a week until the shower and just see what she wants to do with them. I am playing with different color combos and they are mindless, tiny, and cute.
