Wasted

Over the last couple days, it has gradually become clear that I have wasted the last 6 years of my life.

wasted.  absolutely wasted.

Had I known that getting a PhD was not going to improve my prospects of employment, I wouldn't have done it.

I don't need a PhD to sweep floors or stock shelves, becuase that is what it looks like I'll be doing.

Go Cards!

I'm all for cheering the Cards.  This might be a little much though....

This would be the fountain at Missouri Botanical Garden.

Izzy's hat!

Izzy's hat!

It's done using an e-wrap stitch.  When you stretch it out, the hat is very loosely woven.

Apple Pie!

The best part about October is the warm sunny days.  Sunny days that are perfect for apple picking!  I managed to convince Adventure Buddy to come with me.  He's tall (great for reaching apples) and he's strong (great for carrying bags of said apples :D )  To thank him for carrying all the apples, I made an apple pie for him.

Rings of Apple

Apple Machine

It peels, it cores, it slices!

SOOOO much faster when you are doing pounds of apples

The apples don't seem to fit....

In the oven

mmmmm

Adventure Buddy has reported in.  The pie is yummy!

Knitted Hat!

I have finally learned how to knit.  I'm not using needles...I'm using a loom.  It's totally awesome and I pity anyone I know cause they are getting knitted gifts for Christmas.

My first hat!

It's made using a basic knit stitch.

Overlook at Night

In the Ozarks...night is really dark if there is no moon. I went on an adventure with Adventure Buddy on Friday. As he is tallish, my car is uncomfy for him after awhile so we have to stop every so often. So while he was stretching...I set up this shot. And by setting up I just aimed the camera.

This is the uncorrected/unprocessed image.

This is the image corrected for brightness and stuff. I like the upper right corner the best. That blue/purple/pink mishmash.
