Useless SAL of July

So I got the random Google problem fixed. I had to make another new email (because letting me use an existing Google email would just be too easy), but I can get onto my blog again without a massive fight. So here's my SAL of July. I'll start posting progress on my shawl and Josh's socks and stuff as I get further along.

And in case you're wondering, that is in fact me with my future hubby in the engagement picture we got done right after we got engaged.

Google and it's Evils

So, I have a gmail account. Two actually. One is connected to my college. So I got myself an "I'm a college graduate now" email address. It's the second gmail. You know, for professionalism and stuff. So Google goes and updates it's stuff that it does and changes stuff around. And tells me I need to update the email I have or something. Every time I try and log into my blog here it says "You need to change stuff!!!!!!!" And so I did. And now I just have some weird temp account that I can never remember how to log into (and half the time it won't work anyway, just brings up that "UPDATE STUFF NOOOOOOWWWW!!!!" page again...). The most frustrating part of this whole thing is that I've tried over and over and over to put my new "grown up" email address as my primary email for the blog but even though everything is operated by Google I CAN'T MAKE A GMAIL MY PRIMARY EMAIL!!!! WHAT?! I have to update everything for Google and Google own't let me use their email. So yeah. That's why I haven't updated anything. I haven't actually been able to log in. Because Google is broken. And stupid.

Also, (and I hope this doesn't disqualify me from winning stuff) but I haven't actually added anything to my thing of stitches for the Totally Useless Stitch-along so I'm just going to re-use a picture.

I may not have used this one. I take more than one picture of them at a time sometimes.

May the 4th Be With You

First, my Useless SAL for May.

Alrighty, now that that's done, I need to tell you all that I have finally watched the entire Star Wars Saga! I'd never seen them. Just part of Episode I and all of Episode III. So on this Star Wars Day, May the 4th be with you, always! (even though I'm a Sith. :P)

Useless SAL of April

Here's my post for the month. A few new colors on the top from all my Bazaar knitting! Other than that I've got a Bridal shower on Sunday! I can't wait!!

Useless SAL and Whatever Else

It is March 4th and so it's time for the next Totally Useless Stitch-Along post! I've done quite a bit and my bottle is filling! It's actually kinda neat looking.

Much has been done, and I'll post about those later. No really! I will!

Which brings me to my next point: Y'all I. Am. Busy. Oh my goodness. This semester, combined with my job, combined with planning a wedding, combined with trying to figure out what to do with myself after graduation this May has left me quite literally ZERO extra hours for things. Any kinds of things. I mean, I only see my fiance for about an hour a day if I'm lucky. It's chaotic.

However, good things have come from it as well. I have applied for the apartment I want to move into after graduation. This is the same apartment that Josh will move into once we're married! So I'm going to be living in our home. It's actually pretty awesome. I've only applied though, not put down the deposit. But I really can't think of a reason I'd be denied. My worry-loving brain just makes me think I'll get denied for some reason.

My roommate (who is also a bridesmaid) and I have spring break starting a week from this Saturday! She's coming up home with me so that my mom, sister (Matron of Honor) and she can start really getting into the wedding thing! We're going dress shopping and doing all those fun things! And with as frazzled as I'm getting, bring on the spring break! Ugh!

There is a thing going on around campus called the "Harding Bazaar" where crafty people can buy a booth and sell their crafts! So of course I jumped on that, giving myself even more things to do...I've knitted two coffee mug cozies, I'm thinking of making a cowl, and I'm going to bring lots of patterns and books for people to look through so they can order things. I mean, that's how most stuff is done right? Made-to-order!

I'll post some pictures of things I've made sometime soon. When I can breathe. Ja ne!

Totally Useless SAL and Other Pictures

I almost forgot this. Hooray for Alyoops for posting hers in a timely manner to remind me!

I've got a lot more clippings in there this month, but not because I've been doing much more honestly....The pink and black is from a tank-top that I want to make, but I get bored with my creations easily. I'm odd.

Also, I've actually gotten some knitted things done. A pair of glittens in my Jayne Cobb yarn from my swap partner from a long time ago.

They have a few problems. Holes, random woven in bits sticking out, and the mitten bit is a little to small for my hand, but over all I'm soooo proud of these. They're my first go at multiple fingers and other complex things. Something odd happened though. Notice in the first picture how the hand sts stretch towards the thumb? Well (and this is the 2nd one made) somehow as I was going, the thumb ended up more...in the middle....or something. It's very strange. The other mitten is fine. Crazy stuff.

I finished a happy comfy cowl too! See my pretty buttons? They were on sale! And my nice cable? I've never done that before! It turned out pretty nice if you ask me! And I finally posted pictures! Go me!

Let's Just Pretend It's January 4th

I know I'm really really late with this, but it's the first time I've been back at school (where my bottle of strings is) so I just now got my picture! This is my January picture for Daffycat's Totally Useless Stitch-a-Long!

Sorry about the crazy-lateness! It'll be better from now on!
