poopie wrists

it's official. my wrists are pretty much done with me. i'd like to say we've parted ways, but they're attached, so it's hard to say goodbye. they are on strike though. my right wrist has gotten to the super-painful-when-i-move-it-ever-so-slightly point and my left wrist is starting to catch up. this weekend, i could barely pick up the skillet from our stove when i was cooking (YES I WAS COOKING! to those of you who don't believe it... you know who you are).

unfortunately this means i will have to stop *GASP* knitting and crocheting for a while. this truly sucks because well, i'm all about that. and then i'm going to have to be more creative about what i put up in my blog, because that was what this blog is basically about. this super-sucks. i do have one more creation (a star afghan -- that was probably what put me into a wrist brace) to post because i was working on it before the right wrist gave out, but i think i'll have to spread out my posts so pics will be coming soon.

i had so many cool things i wanted to make, too! here is my partial list:

• little ugg -type booties for the baby
• a cool amigurumi cat for a swap partner (i've now had to back out of that personal swap and that makes me feel like poo.)
• a cupcake hat for the baby
• a sweet amigurumi bunny (yes, for the baby)
• a blossom dress for the baby (i've even ordered the yarn for this already!)
• a pair of blu jeans for the baby

most is for the baby, of course, as having a baby to knit for is so incredibly cool as my projects can be tiny and instantly gratifying. but alas, baby will come and have a limited set of knitted things and crocheted things all because mommy's wrists are going to fall off. so unfair.
