Scarf Love

I'm becoming a girlie in my old age.  It seems that I missed out on all the frilly, flowery, pink girlie goodness in my younger years and I'm making up for it now.  Head bands...head bands with flowers....chunky rhinestone pins...hats...  Yeah, I'm doing it up right.
Today, I'm partaking in a little bit 'o scarf love.  Since I started knitting last year I've been in love with all things scarf.  After all, if you're a novice knitter there's not much you can screw up in a scarf.  It's just...knit, knit, knit, knit, knit....next row, repeat.  Until today I haven't been brave enough to wear one of those gorgeous scaves in an accessory capacity; they've mostly been used in a cold-Nebraska-winter utilitarian fashion.  I got some lovely scarves for Christmas from my cousins.  Noticing that my black sweater, black pants outfit was lacking in color and, well, character this morning, I boldly tied one of the beauties around my neck and jaunted out the door.

I had a spectacular day.  I wrote a poem for an advertisement at work!  Yes!  Me!  A poem!  And it was a little bit of allright! (Backstory....my horoscope said that I should avoid written communication today...if I was a teacher, I should stick to some audio-visual aides and if I was a writer, I should stick to graphs and charts.  Ha!  In your face stars of "fate"!)  I also completely rearranged my kids rooms during my 10 minute afternoon break.  Okay, it was in my head; but, I have it all planned out.
The day was full of stunning clarity.  Ever have one of those moments when a light bulb flickers to life in your brain and suddenly you realize you've been going about things all wrong?  Totally me today!  I had quite a few of those good old, "I shoulda had a V-8" moments complete with face-palm jestures.  Perhaps 36 is the age of enlightenment?
I may be quirky, but I'm owing it to my scarf, which shall from this day hence be known as my Lucky Scarf.  I plan on testing it out at the bar this weekend.  No, no.  I'm just joking.  I'm going to be a good mommy this weekend.  Good mommy in the sense that I won't be trolling the bars with Lucky.  :)
Could it be that some celestial energy has been woven in to it's strands?

Could it have been blessed along the way by a luck pixie who happily sprinkled it with her magic dust?

I know I've been horribly neglectful of my little blog lately.  I have been in a whirlwind lately getting ready for Valentine's day and then family came for my birthday.  I have lots of catching up to do and lots to share!  But, that will have to wait for another day.  For it's off to bed for me now.  I have a big day with one of my besties planned.  A little decompression/retail therapy is just what is needed by both of us so we are off to far away lands where Michael's and Hobby Lobby and Whole Foods can be found and conquered.
I wonder?  Should I wear my scarf?
