Lost...One knit along...

Oh where, Oh where has the Madli-Along gone. I finally bought the yarn, set aside the time and started the Madli. Had problems casting on...Frogged. Cast on again. Frogged. Finally figured out the knitted Cast-on (Yeah Gwen). Started knitting. Lost a stitch in the melee. Decided to go to bed and start again tomorrow(what would be today). Couldn't figure out what I had done. Frogged. Cast-on and knit again. realized I was doing the chart upside down...:-( Frogged yet again. Cast-on and started working chart from the right end and now my little "Nupps" (great idea to give such a cute name for knitting 7 stitches into one and then purling 7 stitches into one?!? What torture!) aren't lining up the way they should. One nupp really looks bad, the other 6+ look okay. Two line up exactly and should be one off. One is like two stitches off in the middle of no-man's land. Obviously did something in the first line that messed up the second, but somehow still ended up with the correct # of stitches. Just when the frustration is just about to kill me and I was going to post my frustration, the Madli-Along has disappeared. UGHHHHHHH!!!!!! So you, my friends and family are hearing my frustration. Can I say it again...UGHHHHH!!!! Did I mention that this is only the swatch... I was trying to see if I was a big enough girl to cast on the real thing. Apparently I still need some more practice... I'm done for the evening because I can't stand the thought of frogging again tonight and I haven't decided if since this is the swatch, I can live with the misaligned nupps or not. I think the real thing is going to have a "life" line every other line...

So I ask you, friends, romans, family, strangers who luck upon my blog...Should I frog again or go blindly onward???
