Posted on Written by

In case you happen to know how to knit and you have a daughter who wants to dress like Stephanie from Lazytown, do I have the answer for you: the Hallowig!

(I don’t know what’s going on with me: now I’m interested in learning to knit. Right. As soon as I master cooking, Latin, meditation, watercolor sketching, and waking up in the morning early enough to do morning pages. Then I’ll be all over the knitting. Sheesh.)

In case the news doesn’t depress you enough, here are some tales guaranteed to take the curl out of your hair. I did pretty well: I’d heard of at least 20 of these, but they haven’t appeared anywhere enough in the mass media. And I’m quite sure Fox News hasn’t carried one of them.

To do list

Here is a list of things I want to do or already do do every day:

  • Meditate for 15 to 30 minutes.
  • Do active meditation/self-hypnosis on one issue in particular: writing, weight, etc. 15-20 minutes.
  • Exercise for 30-60 minutes.
  • Spend some time alone with Darin.
  • Read a book.
  • Play with kids.
  • Write for 2-3 hours.
  • Cook dinner.
  • Write NKA entry.
  • Clean kitchen.
  • Tidy house.
  • Do a load of laundry.
  • Read favorite blogs.

I think it’s pretty obvious something is going to have to go. This makes me tired just writing it, let alone figuring out how to fit it all into my day.
