Help me pick new glasses
September 30th, 2009I went to the eye doctor today for my checkup and to get new frames. I have always had very unique frames, but I wanted to go with a little something different this time. So, Matt, the very nice lady at the eye Dr’s office, and I spent quite a while whittling down the never ending selection. I have come up with two options, and the eye Dr. was nice enough to let me take them home and get some opinions.
So here is where I need your help… I will post photos of both options below ,and it would be very helpful if you could give me your honest opinion on which frame is the best.

I had a once in life time experience when it come to knitting. I started a scarf for my husband a year & 1/2 ago using gorgeous bamboo yarn I got from Unwind Yarn Shop. I made the mistake of letting my non-knitting husband pick out the pattern so it turned out to be a little more complicated that I intended. It requires my undivided attention so I haven’t worked on it much. Sunday night I picked the scarf back up and after doing some math realized I would not have enough yarn to finish.
Mission Accomplished

Very Exciting News: I have finished my first hand knitted wool sweater. I started this in February, and I just finished sewing up the sleeves at 9:30pm this evening. I still need to take the time to block it, but it is totally wearable at this moment. For all you non-knitters, blocking is dousing a completed project in water and pinning it out into the final shape you want. This helps to work out uneven stitches, ensure proper length and width, and generally improves the final look of your project.
And now for some actual information on healthcare

Poor puppies
September 12th, 2009
At the Richmond Fall Festival today, which was awesome, I saw a couple walking two adorable pit bull puppies and couldn’t resist going over to say hello. I know you shouldn’t just walk up to strange dogs and start petting them so I asked the owners if it was okay and was met with a response that nearly sent me through the roof. The couple informed me that they did not want many people petting or touching the dogs because they were training them to be their guard dogs when they got older.
