Aaargh!
Today be Talk Like A Pirate Day!
And I was too busy nurrrrrrsin' to talk to anyone like a pirate. Curses! Perhaps I will go to Starrrbucks and talk to the barrrrista after dinnerrrr!
So I picked up a stalled project, the Kauni autumn leaves sweater, and started knitting on it again, and now it has consumed what was left of my life outside taking care of Jamie. Angus also likes this sweater. He was kind enough to bite the end off one of the needles, leading me to think maybe I need to shed my Addi Natura habit for a Knitpicks one. Also, he carried my unfinished sweater down the hallway one night and left it outside the bedroom door -- with the balls of yarn in the living room, a trail of green down the hall.
Anyway, it's been going along swimmingly. The only disappointment is that fuel prices, airfares and the general economy have added up to "no Rhinebeck" this year. Sigh. We're thinking of taking a long weekend in Wisconsin or something, just to see pretty leaves, which is where I will be showing off my completed sweater, I hope. It's good to have goals.
Another goal is to start saving up now for Maryland Sheep and Wool -- grin.
