Why it’s good for KNITTING, of course. All that time in the waiting rooms, very good for knitting. I got most of the back of the Debbie Bliss Bolero Jacket done, almost at the point of casting off for the armholes. (By the way—they were a bunch of routine follow-ups to my annual physical. I’m fine.)
I left from the hospital to go to Winchester for the annual Dessert Extravaganza, which I’ve helped to run for the past 5 years. Hopefully this was my last hurrah, because hopefully, The Son will do the graduation thing sometime in the next year. I met him for some shopping and the obligatory Buffalo Wild Wings run. I then entrenched myself in the Hampton Inn to put together raffle baskets (about 25 of them) and cut polarfleece scarves with the rotary cutter on the cutting mat. I watched the Olympic opening ceremony—loved the floating acrobats and the torch lighting. And of course the fireworks. I always love fireworks. AND I discovered a new treat—the newly introduced Michelob Ultra Amber.
Drove back in the beginnings of the snowstorm, and when I went to bed last night I figured that the weather dudes got it wrong again—we only had a couple of inches. But when I woke up this morning, it had REALLY, REALLY SNOWED!!!! And then I discovered that the electricity was REALLY, REALLY OFF!!!!. It apparently went off about 5:30 this morning, and stayed that way until about 2 in the afternoon. But hey—I got most of my article written. Pencils and paper, and luckily we have one of those old fashioned rotary pencil sharpeners. Guess I need to do that more often—back to the basics.
And then, because I was such a good girl, I allowed myself some knitting time tonight. Finished the back and cast on the left side. Gotta love it!!!!
