Joo

Purin yhden puseron alun, kun en sittenkään tykännyt. Malli sinänsä kiva ja lankakin, mutta ei niin ei. On se kumma, miten joskus lanka ja ohje yhdistyvät kuin itsestään, joskus langan pitää marinoitua vuosia ja joskus ohjekin odottelee sitä oikeaa prinssiä kauan ja hartaasti. Tähän olisi loistava kuva Panopticonin uudessa neulesarjiskirjassa "It itches", mutten oikein viitsi skannailla kun ne tekijänoikeudet.... Kuitenkin, kuvassa neulojatar seisoo kaupassa ihanan, täyden lankahyllyseinän edessä ja yksi kerä on tipahtanut lattialle. Se suloinen, pieni kerä kuiskaa vienolla äänellä:"Mama?". Oli naurussa pitelemistä uusintavalvonnassa...

Kuten tunnettua, tykkään listoista. Vaikeina tai kiireisinä aikoina listat ja työjärjestykset eri asioille pitävät minut hengissä. Se on sitten eri asia miten noita työjärjestyksiä noudatetaan... Ennen vanhaan hyvin, nykyään ei oikein jaksa. Tämän listan tekemistä olen suunnitellut jo pitkään.

Lihavoi ne kohdat, joita olet jo tehnyt.
Kursivoi ne, mitä haluaisit tehdä.
Kirjoita perusfontilla ne, mitä et ole koskaan tehnyt tai et haluakaan tehdä.
