Father's Day

So, what to do when sick and you want to go to office and outside but you just can't? You finish making Father's day present! I can post about it even though its not Father's day yet cause my dad doesn't use computer and also, doesn't speak English either.

These socks were made out of 7 veljestä Raita yarn. Blue-ish grey-ish boy-ish. Perfect for daddy.

Dad also had been asking about my shodo work (japanese calligraphy) so I decided to include some of my "work" in package as well. The paper is "bamboo paper" so its very very thin and wrinkles up easily.

Shinpo - progress, development

And of course a nice card to finish the package. Now I will just wait until I am healthy enough to go to work and mail the package, yay!

And now its also snowing a lot outside. Sigh. Better to get healthy soon!

Note-to-self

Winter is coming. How do you know that? When you try to find a pair of wool socks. And while at it, I noticed that two pairs had holes in them, so I guess its time to start making new ones! Good thing I've been buying random yarns and theres this lovely petrol blue I just can't wait to be using on socks! Christmas is coming too so thats also another reason to start knitting ;)

Today would be pro-day at DigiExpo, was really looking forward to it, it was nice last time as well. I got to hug Ratchet, played God of War 3 for first time and got a Pikachu stuffed toy! But.. unfortunately I am now officially sick, so no DigiExpo's for me. Boo. Really hard to stay at home especially when I know that its also busy time at the office.

More napkins and cough medicine please.

Home

So its been already one week in new home, time goes really really fast. But during this week I've learned to like this apartment a lot and the location is just perfect. Even if its single room apartment, it still fits couch, bed, desk, three shelves, drawer, table, tv-set..

Work is more busy now but nothing special there. And now I feel like continuing some of my crochet pattern designs, its about damn time already!

Just a small update to let people know I am still alive and kicking, but will post soon when I have something else to tell.

Funeral

It was a long weekend but it feels like worst is over now. Mom's funeral.

It was great to have support from all the people there, friends and family.

Thank you for all.

Experiments

Now lets see how this thing starts out...

Storm

Yesterday I just heard balcony door slam open, I ran to see what was happening and the sky was just flashing with all the lightnings.

Awesome.




Also the main street was flooding with water. Cars pulled over to the pedestrians side cause it was just too difficult to drive on the road.


Mind your step!
