August FO's and a bit of OT News!

Laura J · 2005-08-30T20:10:37+00:00

As some of you may know, I've been sick for the past couple of months and haven't been able to knit. So my list of FO's is pretty paltry. However one of my WIP is quite impressive, if I may say so myself ;)FO's (for July and August):two crochet squares1 mittenWIP:the other mittenone offspring :)Hee hee, told you it was impressive! And now you know why I told you all not to worry about the fact that I was sick. You'd think that after all we had been through (14 months and 2 miscarriages) to get a healthy pregnancy I might have been let off easily in the morning sickness department but, of course, life doesn't work that way! I am still on medication to control the pukies but at least I can actually get up for a little while at a time. It makes me sad, though, that picking up the needles makes me want to barf, especially given that knitting (and chatting with all of you!) has been such a comfort to me over the past year.Anyway, just thought it was time to finally share our news. Turns out I am due just a couple of weeks before Noreen's DD!LauraJ

*tsk* You *lost* 20 lbs?!?!? Hardly fair, Ranee! I'm just kidding... I'm jealous! ;o) When I was pregnant I *gained* 35 lbs and only 8 lbs 7 oz was baby. No wonder everyone thought I was having twins! LOL

Peace! Gemini

I was sicker than a dog during my first trimester too. My aunt suggested that I suck on peppermint candy... so I got some candy canes and would suck on a piece or two when I felt nauseous and it really did help... not completely, but it did help a lot. ;o)

Peace! Gemini

Ah yes, I have eaten my fair share of Peppomint Lifesavers. And those sour Altoids work too. I need to have those with me whenever I leave the house - I'm terrified of getting sick out in public.

Thanks for your congrats, Gemini, and great to see you posting again!
