Austermann Peru for Joan

This photo is for Joan who is looking for some Austermann Peru yarn to finish off her Luna Moth shawl. I thought I had 5 different colors, but ended up finding 6 colors from 3 different boxes. Don't ask. I don't have a good yarn filing system. Very disorganized. I intend to get organized (yarn and everything else in the house) when we move into our new house. Yeah, that's the plan. ;-)

Anyhowz, I know it's hard to get a feel for the colors in the photo above as this is yet another of my ubiquitous crepuscular nocturnal shots. There are 3 blues, 1 green, and 1 grey. I could have sworn I had 8 of the grey, but I only saw 4 balls. Not sure where the other 4 went. Given away? In some other box? Of the green, I have less than 8 balls (sorry, I didn't really count them, I just noticed that there weren't 8... I think it was 6 balls), then I later recalled that I had used some for Sue's Chemo Cap. It was such a long time ago that I forgot that I had played with Peru.

And no, my not being able to keep track of my stash does not mean I have too much stash!!! Although I might have a very slight propensity to being OCD...

Ok, now that I've dug out the Austermann, I still need to go dig out the Debbie Bliss to take a closer look at what colors I have. Maybe I'll pick one for the Elann Shawl KAL...

I've been so out of it today. I kept thinking it was Monday and that I had to move the garbage cans out to the curb (because Tuesday is garbage pickup day).

I started watching Pride & Prejudice (Keira Knightly version). I'm not even halfway through the movie and I'm not really liking this version. I keep thinking back to the other Pride & Prejudice (Jennifer Ehle, Colin Firth) version. Well, I'll try to watch a little more this evening but am not feeling very hopeful.

This is not to say that I can't like two versions of the same movie. I like both Gwyneth Paltrow's Emma and Kate Beckinsale's Emma for different reasons (although I do have a predilection for the latter one just a wee bit more). Does anybody remember Kate when she was less famous? Like back when she was in Much Ado About Nothing? That was a fun little movie, and I loved Kenneth Branagh's soliloquy which appeared as though it was done in one continuous shot (much like they almost managed to do in U2's video for The Sweetest Thing).

Okeedokee, I'm gonna finish off my glass of wine while watching a little bit more of Pride & Prejudice...
