10.10.10

Komolyan, egy ilyen dátum mellett nem lehet elmenni :) 2010. 10. 10. Rosszul indult nap után nagy lelkizés, megfejelve egy kis vásárlással délután - valami tényleg lehet a levegőben, mert vettem egy vállpánt nélküli miniruhát, ami még sosem forult elő az elmúlt 29 évben. Meg balerina-cipőt is hozzá, mivel csak sportos cipőim vannak. És még tetszenek is :D Tegnap is vettem pár holmit, bár nem (csak) ruhákat, hanem paplant meg hizatot is, úgyhogy a számlámra rá sem merek nézni, szegény totálisan anorexiás ez után a hétvégi fogyókúra után...

Seriously, how could a date like this go unnoticed? :D 10th of the 10th month of the 2010th year. Wow.
Today started badly, followed with a hefty discussion, topped off with shopping in the afternoon - something must be in the air as i bought a strapless minidress - something i never did in the last 29 years. Plus balerina-shoes to go woth it as i only own sporty shoes. And strangely, i like them :) I bought couple things yesterday too tho not only clothes but duvet and cover too so my poor bank account must be totally anorexic after this weight-loss diet....

Wardobe finished - Szekrény befejezve

Wardrobe in making - Ruhásszekrény, készülőfélben

Birthday presents - Szülinapi ajándékok

I dont know what's the costum in England but in Hungary we say birthdays are valid plus and minus 8 days from the real date - meaning birthday wishes and presents can be 8 days early or late and are considered being right on time. Well, seven days, but royalmail needed the last three :D
A "bigbottle" of Soak to wash all my handknits with it, and a pair of fancy rosewood needles, only 6 inches long, but hopefully i will use them to make scarfs this autumn as much as i use my symphony woods for shawls :)

Friday off - Szabadpéntek

Two days of holiday and actually done some knitting... first off, i finished this scarf yesterday. A bit short but run out of yarn, but the recipient liked it a lot :) (yeayy, knitting for someone else is goood :D)
The usual after-finish dilemma kicked in today: i picked up some long-going projects, some new yarn, had a cup of tea, then after a bit of an argument with myself i decided to do two things side-by-side. So i will rip back the "Lush and lacy" cardi i started in last december and was laying around for months, in a half-sewed half-screwed state, excuse my french. It was too big as i discovered, plus i messed up not just the sewing but the neck-band too. :P Plus there were 3 more balls left, (hopefully) enough for the hoodie and full-lenght sleeves of the Central Park Hoodie i really wanted to do for ages. Couldn't visualize it from this yarn but i'm giving it a go anyways, better then leave the yarn laying around.The paralell project will be another Swallowtail, with the same yarn - Easyknits skinny semi-solid - just different colour, this time Plum Jam. Just to be true to myself i messed this one up too, even before getting out any needles. I've wound up the yarn onto the yarn winder's base so i couldnt pull the ball of. Had to undo it by hand and wind back to the swift. Well done :P

Ahh and as i had a birthday couple days ago, i was thinking on baking a cake for myself... better skip that right now, dont want to burn down the kitchen :D

Friday out - Pénteki zizi

Getting asked for id 4 days before your 29th birthday in an over-18's pub is not a bad thing :D
