So I've come back for another post, though not much to report today. Am so enjoying the fact that we have a long weekend. Thank you George and Abe.
Have taken the lovely weekend time to ensconce myself in an armchair that's older than my (almost!) three decades to reread my Lord of the Rings books. Oh, what a great world to fall into.
Finally got around to finishing baby B's blanket ... don't know why but the last bit of edging just took me forever to get to! looking at the time frame it took to make it doesn't reflect accurately the time I put into it! One month! Well, one month between the two days of actual knitting! Ah well. At any rate, it's all done, and I'm scheduled to meet the 1 1/2 month old B tomorrow!
Still working away on my dpns, but I haven't given them much time this week. There are just not enough hours in the day for me to do all the reading, watching and crafts that I want. And naptimes! And the gym! Sigh ...

The New Adventures of Blogging
Okay. I'm finally jumping on this bandwagon to see what all the blogging fuss is about. The ultimate question I suppose is, am I dilligent enough to return to this and continue posting? Only time will tell, I suppose.
After hanging on to the book way past it's library due date(oops!), finally finished Marv Levy's,
Where Else Would You Rather Be?. What can I say ... when you're born and bred in Bufffalo, you're either a football fan or you're not. Regardless, Marv rocks my world. He's a smart, funny, dude, passionate about his football. Gotta love it.
One of these days I will get around to finishing Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell. Enjoyable as it is, it's so long, and I only listen to it on the commute, and sometimes the iPod wins out for the journey. In the meantime, I listen merrily on, and my monthly Audible selections pile on my "to be heard" list. Oh well ... I guess I can never run out of things to do!
My knitting skills are progressing and I get bolder, as I've moved on to my first dpn project. After having successfully done the knitted flat fingerless mitts from Weekend Knitting, i'm going to give Voodoo a try. Nice, small projects (= instant gratification!). One can never have too many of these lovely, handy dandy wristwarmer/fingerless mitts/ whatever you want to call them.
Figuring out how to do links and stuff has now given me a headache so it's time to retire. If I'm motivated enough to return, I'll try posting pics next time. This could be fun. Hmm.
