Catch-up
Busy, busy, busy! School is work for the whole family! We are finding this out. And since the Boys are in two different schools, that makes even more work! Not to mention we are, what, a month into the new school year and we have had two notes from Big Boys teacher! That broken arm really set things back. He is not wanting to write. And he is not paying attention. I'm not sure how to fix that! I think he is bored. Baby Boy is doing great though! Although, I haved failed horribly with the potty training aspect. He just can't get it.
As far as me and the job interview. Well, he called me, told me I was his #1 choice but had to interview at least two more people. Then, he up and got sick! He has been out for almost two weeks! He doesn't know what this is doing to me! I did get an e-mail from him saturday night, letting me know he is hoping to be back this week sometime. He said the position had not been filled and said he is hoping I am still interested. YES! Hello!! Get your ass better and back to work! I will start tomorrow! Hey! I haven't worked this century! And not only do The Boys keep eating, they keep growing. They each needed new shoes in the last two weeks! Anyway, I am ranting. So, please keep you crossables crossed. I may need it!
Knitting? Right!
New hat for Hubby, loosely based on this pattern. I used two colors of Cascade 220 superwash. He asked for a hat that covered his ears and was "floppy". OK.
What else.
Mom asked for a pair of booties for a baby gift. Then a woman at her work saw them, so she needed a pair for her new grandbaby. I love these! They work up so quick! And they have that super cute factor! And, with leftovers!
Next.
GIANT socks for Hubby! Size 13! OUr anniversary is October 13. These will be his anniversary present. One done. I can make it! It is the swirl sock pattern. With ShelbyB's yarn in nasty Packer colors. The yarn is not nasty! The colors are, which I had her dye up just for Hubby! This shows how much I love this man to knit him socks for his size 13 feet in packer colors! FYI- did you know that the 7 year anniversary is wool? Hee! Hee! Wool socks! Maybe he will get me yarn?
Next. I have two other xmas knits going. I will show when more progress is made. I have one sock of each pair done. Its moving along
Juliet is ok. I am about half way through the garter stitch top. I am becoming increasingly bored. But I keep making myself go. After all the garter, I get to start the lace. I hope I will like this damn thing. But it is a bonus that I am using stash. I will show it when there is something more interesting to see.
That's all for now. And to drop a little note, I am creeping up on a little blog milestone. Who will leave the 300th comment? Not sure, but that person will get a prize!!!
