Not Really a Lot Going On

I've been having pretty intense cravings for Skittles lately. Not sure why. Actually, that's not true. They are a coping mechanism for me.
They are a big help at work:


They also help me knit:


I'm currently working on a project for a co-worker. I was putting it off for a while. It will be a baby blanket. I am knitting squares with different patterns. When I have enough squares, I will crochet them together. I was putting it off because I don't really like this co-worker. Someone suggested to me that since I knit "pretty good", I should knit something for the baby. I resent those kind of statements or suggestions. It takes a lot out of me to knit for someone else. I'm more of a selfish knitter. I changed my mind because of the new life that will enter our world. While I'm working on this little project, I'm just trying to put all my good feelings into it and wish the baby strength and love.

Last week, I contacted the Cash for Gold people. Today in my mail box, there was that postage paid envelope they tell you about on their ads.


The way I see it, I don't really have anything to lose. Those items are a symbol of something that has been. I do not want to go back to that point in my life. This seems the healthiest way to be rid of those symbols.

So I found those items and tucked them into that envelope.


Tomorrow I will wish them on their merry way:


I will let you know what happens.
I'm off to surf the web. I hope you all had a great St. Paddy's day if you celebrate. If not, then I hope you enjoyed the weather. See you later.
