sooo cold

I went to Chicago with DH last night, he had a meeting to attend and I tag along with my knitting gear, yup never leave home without one...

while waiting for him at Subway.. i knit my doily using sport weight yarn to knit into a baby/or lap blanket... it kind of fun ..keep increasing and knit knit knit..the subway supposed to close at 9 pm but at 7.50 they started sweeping the floor and packed things up ... i feel that they are hinting me to leave...lol...so i packed my stuff and got nowhere to go ... I loitered around the building and boy was it icy cold or what and the wind ...no kidding keep blowing...ahem i forgot Chicago is the WINDY city ...today i am home all day long and i feel chill all the time... believe it or not i had 3 pieces of clothing on(t-shirt,cardigan and fleece) and still feel chilly...wonder i am sick or ......Sigh.. nevertheless it was fun to accompany my DH though...we chat and eat on the way there and back...people drive **Craze** there for sure...one second of waiting they HONKED ...and honked...it kind of blown my mind away...

did you know they are some Asia country the road rages are out of control ...they will beat each other up ...they had ZERO tolerance !!!

what a bad day ..

I woke up abit groggy and soon enough at 11 plus i got this terrible migraine...must be the cheese and crackers.. and last night i ate little during supper, it amazing how your stomach could produce that much acidic to cause the imbalance of the body to have migraine, so i cooked lunch, ate it and head straight to bed... i woke up at 3 pm and took a shower ..oh no...the drain is clogged ! Sigh... I felt BULLY by a drain .. anyway sorry about my story ... i know this is a knitting website but i cannot do anything till my hubby come home today so we can start cracking my pics and post it here for all to see... it snowing ! so nice and cosy to watch them in a heated house with a cup of water..

i finally finished my Buttony Cardigan free pattern here http://www.ohmystars.net/craft/knitting/pbuttony.html.. i did mine in medium pink using red heart acrylic, alot of people did said that the more you wash that yarn..the softer it gets... so i will try it out...i planned to knit another one with Caron supersaver yarn. i will try to post the pic up this weekend...

wow the snow are really dense and lots of them are falling from the sky ...less than a minute the floor becomes a White Carpet...so cool !
