I'm so frustrated by the lack of comprehensive info about PCOS. There aren't experienced docs near me, so I have to rely on the internet. I may have endometriosis as well. HELP.

This is a perfect excuse for a PCOS round-up post!

Time for a giveaway, no? 

So I hit some really cool milestones in the past few weeks. Here on tumblr and on Etsy as well and I figure, lets celebrate with a giveaway! 

What’s in it? 

One of my Japanese knot bags for on the go knitting or crocheting 

It’s fully reversible, 100% cotton, with a sturdy bottom and… it’s Avengers themed! 

2 balls of Knit Picks Galileo in Quartz 

sport weight, 50% merino, 50% bamboo, 131 yrds

and I’ll throw in some stickers and some other goodies too :) 

How to enter? 

Must be following me! It is a follower giveaway, after all! If you want to start following me, that’s cool too. My blog is about 80% my own projects, and yarn is a dominant theme… :) 

reblog = 1 entry 

like = 1 entry 

please do NOT tag this post as a giveaway. Tumblr has a tendency to take those posts down. It also draws attention to giveaway blogs that skew the numbers.

must be OK with giving me your address so I can send you the goods (international is totally OK and pls be over the age of 18) 

this giveaway is in no way associated with tumblr 

I will pick a name via random number generator on August 31st 2016 at 11:59pm PST 

Any questions, feel free to hit up my inbox. 

And if you dont want to wait, or want to purchase a bag of your own, you can find all the styles in my etsy shop: www.kaynoxx.com 

Good luck!! 

So the Russian ambassador to Turkey was just assassinated in Ankara, and Turkey is in NATO, which means other NATO members must come to its aid in the event of a shooting war, and the U.S. is ~a month from swearing in an unintelligent, uninformed, pro-Russian, ham-fisted asshat as president, so I’m pretty sure this is how WWIII starts.

If it’s not something like hives, or new clothes/soap/etc... it could be your circulation.  I've had this happen after taking a long break from exercise in general. I looked it up after, and it has something to do with the capillaries in your legs expanding and the nerves sending signals to your brain that makes it feel like they're itching. Mine always went away after a few days of regular working out, though..

So I ran a mile on the treadmill in first time since I don't know how long. Now I remember why I don't like doing it. I get so itchy!! My thighs and stomach get unbearably itchy and it really keeps me from wanting to go any further. Any ideas as to what's causing it?

That’s very odd, I have never heard of that happening before. Anybody know?

Lets have sex and watch lotr.

ladies, if a guy ever sends you an unwarranted dick pic, reply with this image
