I'm back

   I'm back online with my compute working fully using ubuntu. I've a lot to learn but simple stuff seems pretty easy. I'm so glad to have a fully working computer again, being offline sucks.

  You'd think I'd of gotten loads of knitting, spinning and weaving done while I had the free time while my computer was down but the truth is I got less done than I normally do. A little weaving, I made my mom a bookmark for Mothering Sunday. I've not got any spinning done at all though, or carding.

   The only knitting I've managed to get done was the clothespin peg bag that I had decided to give up on. I frogged it back to the reverse stocking stitch and have knitted a few rows on it. I'm thinking of doing slip stitch colours.

  Thats all for now, I'll try and get back into the swing of blogging over the week. Hope you all have a great day, take care folks.

Bye bye Mr sunshine

   Well that nice sunny weather didn't last long. Rained over night and this morning it was pretty chilly, probably felt colder than it really was. I might need the heating on tonight, haven't had it on for a couple of days now. Trying to cut down my usage to make up for the heavy use at the early start of winter.

  My internet connection has been fixed, it kept cutting off yesterday while they fixed a fault in my area. I'm hoping this will improve the speed, I don't like 2mb when I pay for 10mb. How did we cope when we only had phone lines to connect?

  The socks coming along slowly, I wasn't in the mood yesterday but did manage to do a bit. I'll get more done today,if I remember rightly I think it takes me about two weeks to finish a pair of socks. I really like the colours in the yarn I'm using, greens, browns and teal with blue aswell. Looks better than it sounds.

Have a great day folks, take care.
