Humble Grumble

Sometimes you think you've done everything right:
you've measured, researched, pondered, conferred,
and you still end up creating a hot pink muumuu
big enough to clothe an entire herd of matronly
elephants.

And sometimes that's just the way it goes,
and there's not a damn thing to be done about it.

  2. Are we speaking metaphorically, or are you a knitter?

  3. At least you have enough fabric (or whatever) to try again- using what you know now.

    Now, if I can get the image of muumuu-clad elephants out of my head... pink no less.

  4. Hmm, is this a literal hot pink muumuu? I hope not. Sounds like you need a nice long bath, preferably with a candle.

  5. Sounds good to me! And I love pink--hot or otherwise.
