It's not been a conductive time to work on my knitting lately. The heat and humidity have been playing hell on my Fibromyalgia. While the higher dose on my baclofen has been helping more with my pain, my concentration is shot, plus the humidity makes even thinking about using yarn a joke. Right now it's 7:45AM, already 70F with 88% humidity, and a high of 90F forecast...ugh!
Of course this isn't just affecting my pursuits of washcloth making. I also missed the last weekend of the RenFaire in Ohio. Woke up with a killer headache, plus severe nausea that didn't even go away with a surprise iced coffee from Mr. Concerned. Not even him offering to complete my outfit was enough to get me to go unfortunately. (Hopefully by next year I can sew us clothes!) And my sleep is also suffering. I always feel like I'm sticking to the sheets...if only I could afford to condition my air.
For now, until it cools off, I'm staring forlornly at my small skein of blue cotton yarn, and the one multicolored skein of surprisingly soft acrylic I got last week that I think will make a lovely simple scarf, although I should probably get a few more of the same lot. But the weather calls for it not getting under 80 until this weekend, with a lot of rain showers. Which will be good for Tim's tomatoes, but not soon enough for me!
Addendum: I didn't even realize it's been since the 8th that I started this blog. It only felt like a few days ago all this weather crud started...ahh the joys of brain fog.
