Wed, 25 February 2009 ![]() I’m officially half done with the bar exam. I am in the proverbial belly of the beast as we speak with one day down and one to go (practicing attorneys for a certain number of years only have to take the first day and the third day, and don’t have to sit for the multi-state day) I put the books down for a moment and did a podcast in which I talk about my germ-phobia, pressure cooker chicken soup and many other things. My succulent yarn pick for the moment is Fiesta Ballet which is soft and shiny and actually surprisingly dense. I’m knitting a chevron scarf with two colors of it as we speak… um no, I”m studying for the bar still, right??? Last week I was able to finish the epic peach shawl from Victorian Lace today. I still haven’t blocked it but I’m wearing it into the bar examination to symbolize to myself what consistent work can accomplish. Actually I am wearing the watch from my parents, the bracelet that the boyfriend gave me, the necklace that one of my favorite colleagues brought back for me when she and her family went to Hawaii, and socks that I knit from yarn that Allen from Numma Numma sent me when I, ahem, ceased to work at my old job last year. Here’s hoping that all that support from my little fan club and some old fashioned studying will be enough to make it so I never have to study for another bar again! Actually I’m studying, typing here and eating pretty poor chinese take-out at this very second. As for the website www.yarndyenasty.com, it is expecting a serious face lift, actually its going to be more like an overhaul! I’m so excited. Please, I’m excited about anything that isn’t studying for the bar, and being able to do things without feeling like I should be studying instead.

Sat, 17 January 2009 Again we lead off with Sheep in the Morning from TV's kyle. It's from the podsafe music network and can be easily downloaded from iTunes. Find the shownotes on my Ravelry podcast group, not so cryptically called - The Crafty Woman Podcast.My New Years resolution is to get these out weekly, so keep me on schedule and crack the whip if you notice me slacking off.
