last night i was babysitting joelle and caleb with my dad as my assistant. after they were both in bed, i fell asleep on the couch. this has happened the last two times i was on duty. actually, the first time i fell asleep with cabe in my arms. i think this's been happening due to the fact that my dad has control of the remote. last time he made me watch CFL football and a tv movie on the aborginal network of "The Lone Ranger". he's really huge into football. oh wow, it just dawned on me that i mananged to get through the whole queen's football season this year without being dragged to one of the games. i think he's finally caught on to the fact that I DIDN'T GO TO QUEEN'S and I'M NOT INTO FOOTBALL!!! anyways, i digress... last night it was news, news, news which was ok, but when i saw him change the channel to the aborginal network again i was out like a light. at one point i woke up with a start and said "dad, what time is it?" 10:30 "I have to go home!! I have to work tomorrow" Les, its saturday tomorrow "oh ok" then i rolled back over and fell asleep again.
when joy and tim returned home i was very groggy and not at my best. lets face it, i'm a bad napper. i tend to wake up angry. as i attempted to get up and fold the blanket, my family commented on the fact that i've lost weight. then tim said "you look very propotional". what a weird thing to say. i was too groggy at the time to question him on his choice of words. but let me tell you, any guys that may visit my blog - sometimes normal compliments are more appropriate. a classic "you look nice" or "you look good" is better than anything you can ab-lib.
today i went to the NeXt knitting group at Michelle's house. i stopped at s&r on the way to buy more wool but they were all out of my kind. ugh. so i thought i'd just do a filler project until my wool comes in. i bought some colourful wool and i started a scarf (that's the extent of my knitting ability). i think i might make a scarf for joelle (if her neck is big enough). so i got to Michelle's a half hour late (i should have aimed at 1:45) and with Melissa's help i started my new project. Joanna was teasing me that my scarves are really "fashion scarves" since they're so thin then don't provide any warmth. i guess that's true. she has a valid point there. although i prefer to think of them as "sweet november" scarves. i remember how charlize theron wore all these really thin scarves around here neck in that movie and she just looked so beautiful. i tried that once but i gag easily. i've realized the key is really thin scarves. ;)
one final comment before i go...
why is it because i'm single do people always try and set with guys i wouldn't be interested in?
