Jever have one of those

really crap knitting days?
It felt like I worked on the second Endpaper Mitt for hours today and not many inches were added. I have had to frog back the Jollyfish hat because I screwed up the intarsia in the round directions. Just not productive. I did read most of the new Tamar Myers book though, As The World Churns. Her books are so much fun, and quick. I like them like I like Janet Evanovich. Tim had a really crap day at work, I thought I was better from my earlier fibromyalgia bout, but tonight I ache again. I feel like gravity has changes, like the air is pressing in on me as if one of the kids is leaning on me. But - The kids are all safe (one had a band trip pretty far away today) and I don't hear them actually hurting each other down there. They keep coming to my room with various pieces of recycling and wood bits and asking if they can use it. They are making a fort in the livingroom. I do not want to look. But they're quiet, and the Yankees are Playing the Red Sox (on in my room). It has the potential to either make Tim feel better or further confirm today's thought that the world is not a happy place.

Ramblings.

I had a near disaster that just became fixed a few minutes ago! I thought I had lost the bag that had my one complete Endpaper Mitt and about 1/3 finished second one. Luckily it was on my dresser, but it's one of those think back to where I took it with me last times. On Sunday it went with me to Cub Scouts. On Monday I took it when I took the kids skating. Before I had to get too heated about the loss I did lay my hands on it. I only had to sweat a little. In the mean time I worked on one of the squares for the Inga Bag that I'm teaching tomorrow. I'm not a great lover of crochet, but I can do it and like it. It's not that big of a challenge for me.
Speaking of losing things... I lost my debit card last week, one son lost his phone. I got my new card yesterday, but it's such a pain when these stupid things we rely on are gone. We did end up finding both items, but not until after I had already reported my card lost.
And last night, as I said, I went skating with the kids, and by the time we were done my fibromyalgia hit really hard and fast. I had to call my husband to come finish what I was doing so I could get home. I was curled up in bed all night. Today was my little one's birthday, so I had to get balloons, and gift wrap, lots of running that I HAD to do. I am trying to baby myself tonight, and for the next few days. I have to do this class tomorrow, and that will be fine, but I'm not going to do a lot more.
Nice to talk to my younger sis lately. She has her IM open all day when she works, so she's available a lot. She and my older sister are coming down Mother's Day weekend and we're going on our yearly trip- this time to Longwood gardens, and to the folk festival at Fonthill/Mercer Museum. We are going to have a great time.
