Stupid weather...

I can't go to the streetfest today because it's too hot and humid, and my mom can't take the weather. I don't blame her, but it's such a bummer, because I have money to spend, and my sister really wanted to go to the streetfest.

I'm also angry because my dad was bothering me when I was working on the first gauntlet. First, he distracted me by asking in the bag on the table full of stuff from the dentist was mine. Then, when I was so upset about a mistake in my gauntlet, he said, "Sobbing won't help!" Uh, dad, you don't even knit, so shut up!

Glad that's outta my system :)

A rather cool day :)

Why was today a cool day? I'll make a list...

  1. Even though I hate going to the dentist, it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. I had a fascinating conversation with the man sitting next to me in the waiting room. Normally I'm not that talkative, but we both had something in common - a fear of going to the dentist. And he made me laugh a little.
  2. The hygienist who cleaned my teeth is so cool.
  3. I heard 'Here Comes The Sun' on the radio as I waited for the hygienist to come back into the room.
  4. We went to a store called JYSK, where my parents bought me a knitting bag that can double as a beach bag.
  5. We went to Len's Mill Store, where my parents got me a pair of metal yarn needles. I needed a shorter needle for weaving in unruly ends. We also got two Butterfinger bars - one for my dad, one for me.
  6. We went out for lunch.
  7. I started knitting a pair of gauntlets.
