Fun with little hair and other itchy things
If you know me in person you know that I don't have a lot of hair and cover my head with scarves and bandannas (sp?). I have PCOS and my mothers side of the family all have thin hair. So since I was 12 years old my hair has been falling out. My mom always let me do what I wanted with my hair being that she knew it wasn't going to be there forever.
So I like to have "colorful" hair (even if people only get to see the bangs) . I'm excited because I have a new color to try out tonight. Midnight purple! I'll post photos tonight if I can remember to charge my camera. Which means I have to remember where I left the charger ;o)
I swear my memorie is great with remembering conversations, but I can never remember where I put things!
Also my HIVES are back and I HATE that! See last year I started getting hives out of the blue just one day hives poped up on my hands and I had never had a hive before in my life. Well I had them all over my body for 5 months straight after that day! The Dr was no help cause they couldn't figure out what was causing them and they told me they would go away "someday". Well let me tell you I wanted to slap the Dr right then and there! So 3 months ago the hives just stoped dont know why but let me tell you I was soooo happy! Well that ended yesterday :o( yep they came back and I have them right now as I tell you about them. The crazy thing is that I will get one on a finger and it will drive me crazy for an hour then go away but then 2 more will show up on the other arm then those stop and then my neck will be covered! its like chasing your tail (if you were a dog) you never get to the end!
Ugh well enough griping about that, off to start dinner and then have fun with my little tuft of hair ;o)

Have a secret!
I’m working on a first birthday gift for a friends daughter and its cute I hope that she likes it as much as I’m liking them
Any way I’m making knitted and stuffed veggies! How cute is that?? Maybe I’m the only one that thinks its that cool I hope not.
I will post picks when I have them all done.
BTW the market bag is done and photos will be coming soon.

Hello world
Hello world,
So I thought I should start a little blog about my life as a knitter trying to make it in the world threw www.cozyknitsforyou.etsy.com
I learned how to knit from my mom when I was 8 years old but didn’t do anything more then the scarf I learned on. Then I picked it up again when I was 12, but quit after making a few sweaters for my stuffed bears. Then when I was 24 I picked up the needles for good this time and have been hooked ever since.
My knitting really took off when I became pregnant with my now 2 and a half year old daughter. She was born 8 week premature so I got really good a knitting tiny hats she was 3lbs 5ozs at birth and her head was the size of an orange.
But now she is a giant! she is over 3 feet tall and weighs 29 lbs so she didn’t stay small for long.
So being a stay at home mom in the beginning was tough with such a small and fragile life to look after that I would knit to distress. Now I knit to stay sane! She is such a hand full, completely fearless and stubborn are her top traits and oh what a fiery mix that can be!
So I like my little knitting projects because then tend to be quick and they mold to my will unlike the people in my life ;0)
