Thank you again to everyone. It was great fun and the packages of yarn went out yesterday. Even though I value each and every opinion and suggestion offered… sometimes the internet Gods know all. *gigglesnort*

11. Jenni! ARRRGH! You’ve won the Yarn Pirate!

26. Awesome Mom! You’re going to be cruisin’ the KnitPicks Carribean.

62. Karen! You get the wonderful Wooly Wonka!

The Big PIMPin’ contest winner – Wow… this one turned out to be harder then I thought. I tried to bring mom into it and make her pick out of my finalists and she couldn’t. So, to make it fair, I had her pick her favorites out of all, I picked mine, threw you all into a bowl and voila! The winner is: kmkat.

(note to self, next time just give out an extra random prize because that was WAY too hard)

I’ve sent you all email, so you may have to check your spam folders.

This really was a lot of fun for me. Thank you all for participating. I wish I could have sent a skein of yarn to everyone. Are there any yarn retailers out there that want to pimp a new yarn? I only need 75 skeins. Come on… help some knitters out.

Wow!  You all are coming up with some great job options!  I’m working at responding to everyone and adding some great unknown to me blogs to bloglines.  Don’t forget, you have until this Saturday at 4 p.m Pacific to put in your suggestion.  Yes, you can enter more than once.  I kind of mentioned an extra prize at the bottom of the contest post.  There are some contenders, so I’m going to make it official… (drum roll please)

The Big PIMPin’ prize! 

The entry that makes me pee in my pants will win some Malabrigo Lace.  Yes, thats right.  Remember that little shopping spree I went on… well I’m going to give some of it up.   Two skeins of this lovely stuff.  Tailored to the winner’s color preferences.  (this picture is not the actual prize, it is just being used to show the colors I have)

So, what are you still doing here?  Go back to the other post and keep throwing ideas out there.

 I may or may not be using this post as a diversion for my lack of knitting progress.  Heck, my lack of doing anything creative.  I’d love to say “there’s a lot going on!  Busy, busy, busy!”  But really, I’m just plugging along with the medical stuff and in a generalized funk. (don’t even ask about my apparent lack of math and/or record keeping skills disaster)

 I’m thinking of forcing the old one to prep the vegetable bed so I can sit and play in the dirt this weekend.  Yes, you can plant one handed.  Yes, sometimes dirt does make it all better.

As does reading everyone’s wonderful suggestions.

Here’s the info.

Yeah.  I have nothing else, but this is a good P.S.A.  right?  I like my te-tas  and you should like yours too!  After you’re done, go to her post for today and let her know… you’ll be entered in a contest.
