Another heatwave today - it

Another heatwave today - it reached 42C locally, I am told. No knitting was done, I just laid around being hot all day, until the most welcome cool southerly wind came in at around 4.30pm.
Even Twinky was hot.

Usually she isn't particularly fond of water. She is laying there between a frozen bottle of water and her food bowl, and has let me stroke her with my fingers dipped in cold water. In fact, she didn't like it when I stopped, so I just kept going until she got up and shook herself off like a dog. :)
The next pattern has been announced for the six sox knitalong, but I can't get to the pattern yet. However they are called the "Pink Bead Socks".
Despite my abundant yarn stash, I have no pink sock yarn. Well, thats a partial lie. I have some Lorna's Laces in Old Rose, but that is earmarked for the Breast Cancer Awareness Socks. So I have to get some pink sock yarn. And presumably, some pink beads.
Any suggestions?

She looks miserably hot. Poor baby. It's so strange to think of it hot somewhere when it's so cold here in Germany.

Donna, was it you who emailed me about the bead socks? I've sent several emails with attqach,ents of teh pattern this morning and certainly there was Donna among them.

If you want it,give me another email and I'll send it again.

Someone was very quick to send me a copy so I've been returning the favour all morning.

And I can't find that kitting calendar anywhere ovr this side of Sydney!:-( One woman tried to sell me a flat one that you hang up, but I wasn't interested in any of the patterns. Then she tried to tell me I didn't know what I was talking about.
