to get ready for the big event.

Oh, my gosh!! I am death on both ears and so full of laughter that I just had to blog about it.

Beatiful long hair on all 6 of them.

Music is running( as in my time- but different tunes) Hairspray, makeup-

changing outfit --- again for the ....nth time. Eating pizza, drinking coke and jamming.

changing music, checking the cell....

Meanwhile my boys( the brothers) are glacing at them, secret looks , obviously showing no interest for them, but still get a glims in to the secret girl life.

Here they are so young, inocent and beatiful and full of exitement for the evening..

Who will they meet, who will they dance with, will the right person be there etc, etc....

Ann- sofia, Karoline, Josefine, Mette, Stine and Amalie.

Seems like a couple of years ago since they was in kindergarden. Mine is the one far left.

And wupti they´re gone- I will pick two of them up at 1.30 am tonight.

Hopefully after a great evening.

I will get ready for an hour in front of tv with my knitting before I ´ll drive to the airport to pick up my boy friend. Tudeluuuuu

A Coffee Cosy

A coffe cosy was born today.

A hole at the top.

A button to finish it up.

It is made as a small hat realy .

Yarn is Sarek ( Norwegian) and i love the colour theme in it.

A another one is on its way, tiny different though.

She`s crazy

I am have been sick- not that bad, but bad enough not to be able to get to work.

Monday I struggled all day with nausea and headache. Did my job, but boy I thought it never end.

When I could let my self fall on the sofa I was exhausted.

Called in sick tuesday- in the believe that I would get better for wednesday.

I guess I am the bigges fool of them all. My BF told me I know what´s good for everybody else exept for myself.

I hate being sick. Can´t stand it really. Wednesday came and my way of testing if I would be able to be in the same room with a bunch of thirdgraders (.... yeahh...noisy as h.......and full of energy.. ) - I had to test my self with cleaning both my bathrooms.

Nope!!!! did not work at all.

Dizzy as after a ride in a merry-go-round .

Nothing else to do but to realize that I was actually sick and face the fact that I had to be off work that day too . The same for thursday.

Today, thursday I feel much better , but still a bit dizzy .

But I will go to work tomorrow, get some air, meet some people and be happy.

If I have the "swine flue" I don´t really know.

So many people in Norway has been sick- ( I ´ve been there alot) , not so much though in Denmark, but not all of us get really badly sick. Only people with other illness´to combine with the flue.

I thank my normaly good helth for that and keep drinking my "TRAN" every morning.

It is Fish-liver oil . One tbl.spoon along with the rest of the vitamins I eat.

One spoon full a day keeps the doctor away- Hurray!!

Coffee bean mittens:

Had some yarn laying around :-) called at me to be knitted.

Great with a stash, hah!

These are my own pattern and a made up pattern with eyelets along the way.

Ment to look like straw swinging in the wind ( or it could look like a trea???)

Would you like a glas of milk?

Can you believe that this is made out of milk ? Something is added to the milk so that the fibers can be pulled out and wupti---- one have some fiber that can be spinned and made to yarn.

It is increadiably soft. Has a shiny look to it as silk, kind of cotton like-

Have not knitted anything in it yet- so I have no idea how it will feel like.

I hope not to much like cotton.

Anyway! this jeans blue is for a shawl with a edging of light greay.

Hi,hi,, cant wait to start.

Last temptations is a variety of 10 balls of norwegian yarn, ment for socks and leg warmers.

Oh- shooot! I forgot that there`s only 24 hr. a day!!! Man!!!

Ups!

And then came the Mags I´ve been waiting for.

In the mail today was a order from Anglofilia and yummies from Interweave knits:

Holiday gifts,Knitscene and Weekend.

I´ve been reading them along with a cup of tea and never mind the rain outside! Who cares? I don´t ! Don´t have to be outside more today and can fully enjoy my afternoon, evening and the noodles my youngest and I made. I am off to finish my SJ mittens.

K.M.

Since I am not allowing my self to buy yarn at the moment- I buy knitting magazines.

On that early fall- morning last week- we went to Sweeden to shop big- all groceries - half price.

Also I had to peek and see if I could find knitting m. to inspire me.

I peeked . I found. I am inspired.

Especially Filati handknitting and Knitter had a lot of great cardigans and sweathers .

Meanwhile I knit Spilly Janes Mitts.

I do fight a little with the yarn :-(

I am not pleased with the outcome- but will not let my self rip it.

I made place for thumb and I am about to finish first one.

I like the pattern twists, and I have to find a more pleasable yarn to knit with.

A early morning moment.

This is a late fall early morning moment.

Mr. winter knocked on the door at nights and this morning was cold and "fresh".

Leaves in the staircase-

Flower "left overs " standig there so brave until it bends over and surender to the winter.

It´s all so romantic and poetic- I wish I could write poems about it.

But then again- I can knit poetry--he,he...

All this so tender and fine. Had a couple of snow showers during the week I had in Norway.

Reminding me of what I left behind all those years ago .

Back in Denmark it is fall in Dk- standard: rain, fog, rain, fog and so on.

If only..........!
