After the Storm

I haven't been posting for a while, because I've been so distracted by, ya know, The Election. It was just so nervewracking and made it really hard to concentrate. Now that it is over, I hope we all can move on and come together as Americans. I try not to talk about politics here as I know not everyone reading this blog will agree with me. Let's just say that some of my viewpoints will surprise you. Eventually I'll be setting up another blog where I can be more free to discuss my viewpoints, and to provide a ready link to other blogs that I comment on. Actually, it's been in place for a while, but I just need to tinker around some with the look.

Lately I've been getting tons of spam comments and it is really irritating me. I'm going to start closing comments in a timely manner, and I need to find a way to do a mass comment closing on my previous posts as that's where the spammers (die, die, die spammers, DIEEEEEEE!!!!!!!) leave their droppings.

Yesterday I picked up the winter issue of Interweave Knits. This promises to be a really good issue as it looks like there will be quite a bit of classic sweater designs. Also, I picked up CastOn and it looks like they've gone through yet another makeover. We'll see how that pans out.

I've been playing around with Tungsten T5, which I treated myself to as an early gift. I have eKnitKard, but it's an old version as I downloaded the wrong one. I did get the correct version, but the Mac .sit package is corrupted, and I haven't gotten around to trying to unstuff the windows version (which is an .exe file). I was planning to go to my share directory via my PC at work and unstuff it on my laptop but I forgot to do so. Hopefully I'll have time to do it via Hubby's PC. Also waiting to hear back from Nancy on what her husband has to say about this issue. I do look forward to playing around with it.
