Well, It's Tuesday

Yesterday was a Monday in every sense of the word.  Work was unproductive, karate was difficult and it was about a hundred degrees at the gym, and I didn't get much knitting accomplished.  I am making progress on the second sleeve of the Zip Cardi - I'm actually on the home stretch - as I calculate, I have about 12 rows left!  Woo hoo.  After that, it's frogging Tivoli to re-do her with the proper gauge.  The good news on that is that I may be able to wear her by the weekend.  Keep your fingers crossed. 

I ordered the Lotus Blossom Shawl Pattern and let me tell you Dorothy (the designer) is just about the nicest lady ever.  She was out when I called and she called me right back.  She was very pleasant and told me I could call her any time I wanted if I had questions and she's help me through them.  Very cool.  She said she'd mail it out yesterday, so I'd guess I'll have the pattern by sometime next week - I'm not sure how long it takes to get mail from Canada.

I'm off to buy self-tanner over lunch in an attempt to hide the major bruises on my legs (kicking people in karate with my bony shins) and avoid blinding people with my overly bright white legs.  Do any of you have a tried and true product that you swear by?  In my experience, these things are kind of hit and miss.

I hope you have a great day and that today is better than yesterday.
