This is the title.

I have been pretty craptastic about posting lately.

Yup, still apologizing and still sucking at it.

Okay, had to get that off my chest.

Anyway, camera is still back ordered so I don't look like a loon... yet.

But I did get this over the weekend.

And she's pretty and she's shiny and yes true to form I've already taken one of my knees out with her.

See, there's this little thing called clip-less pedals, which is more of a misnomer than anything because you clip your shoes into the pedals. And I took out my knee trying to unclip while I was trying to stop and yes, also true to form it was very unladylike and involved plenty of swearing. (Don't worry my knee is fine now, just a little banged up.)

I ordered her last week and Isaac and I picked her up Friday and spent three hours while I got fitted and everything adjusted properly for her. And then Saturday we went riding, and even though we only did 8 miles (I blame the bike seat wholly) and I was rather clumsy (what's new) it was really exhilarating being back on a bike again.

I've been knitting plenty lately. See below.

These are cowls, knit out of mohair and I love them but they take a damn long time to knit. Currently they're folded in half which is why they look kinda funny.

And I've recently bought this:

Which I will be knitting into these. (Even though I don't really relish knitting socks.)

And I am so looking forward to knitting rainbow colored socks.

So that's about it for me. It's really quite boring around here but still really good.

Talk to you soon, er, maybe I should stop making promises. :)

And then there was this

This sloth kind of feels like you should update your blog more frequently.

Very funny.

Hi

Um, yeah.

I've been gone a while.

Yes I know this might be an understatement.

I didn't mean to stay away this long but, well, I did. Again, I feel like I always have to say nothings wrong, because normally that's not what my silence means. It just means I'm too busy, uninspired, or sick. It's been a mix of that.

Isaac and I finally did our taxes last week. We've been putting it off because normally we owe and so we dread it. But this year? This year we're getting money back. I am so excited about this. Although I'm pretty sure it has a lot to do with the amazing amount of money we spent moving 3,000 miles, twice.

And? I'm finally going to get my precious.

I honestly don't think I can tell you how excited I am. There are no words. But if you see me clutching something that looks like this and laughing like I've lost a few bolts just know. MY SHIP HAS COME IN FOLKS, MY SHIP HAS COME IN. Yes the caps are necessary.

I just have to wait, until our return comes in. In May. The good thing about age is that times goes fast. No I did not say I'm old.What are you implying?

Also I've been nursing a killer cold. Like I've lost at least half of my voice and I've been sleeping like a zombie. Which is saying something because I sleep like I'm dead anyhow. But the waking dead now? I mean I don't even remember my husband trying to wake me up this morning after my three alarms went off and I keep my phone across the room (alarm clock) I don't even remember getting up to get it or turning off three alarms.

But this Sunday Isaac and I drove down to Cape May and walked the beach which was great. It was sort of warm and very sunny and I'm just so glad that by moving we didn't have to give up the beach. I would have severely missed that so I'm very glad that I didn't have to give it up.

And then today my bosses boss took me and my coworkers (this includes my boss and one other coworker, we're a team of three) out to lunch today which was really sweet of her. It was her and my boss' way of thanking me and my coworker for the work we've put in lately. (Before I joined the team I am on it was my boss and my coworker (the word coworker is starting to look funny) so he considers all three of us a team and that he's not really our boss, even though we give him the respect of being so. But yes we pull pranks on him, though it's all out of respect... Um, yeah.) Even though my coworker has put in more work (she pretty much kicks ass) than me but she's salary and I'm not so I don't really have a choice. But anyways, that's neither here or there. There have been changes in our department lately and on top of training me it's been a lot and we've handled it well, so yeah. Lunch. A really nice lunch too.

I can't think of anything else right now so here's to not staying away so long next time? Have a good evening.
