Yesterday Mr. Aitch and I were reviewing the leftovers in the fridge and decided to cook and eat the last two hot dogs and two hamburgers for dinner.  To make the meal healthier we also had baby carrots and white zin.  Yes, wine is a health food in my book.

By the end of the evening, my toes were like little sausages.  I try not to consume much sodium but could not pass up the hot dog.  As I was knitting on the button band on the eyelet sweater, my feet felt funny.  They were swollen and my toes looked like little sausages.

Today I’m drinking a lot of water to help flush out the sodium and will be eating a bit healthier, too.

Progress on the eyelet sweater:  It’s almost finished!  I have the button band finished on the right side and have the left side yet to do.  Graft the underarm stitches, weave in the ends,  sew on the yet-to-find buttons and block.  Yay!  Then I can start on the second one hoping it won’t take near as long since I made all the corrections on this one.

As soon as I type out the chicken scratch pattern, I will post it.
