Sooo...today is the first day of obligation--both required meetings were more than an hour shorter than previous years. This is a good sign.

Now, what I really want to write about--the minutia of everyday life.

( The Weekend )

Tomorrow I will work. Now, it's off to the post office to mail the wretched "work I didn't want to do," pick up some groceries, and home to puppies and kitties and the rest of my morning tea. Don't ask.

--I don't remember meeting her. My first memory of her is in our house, going to the porch with my husband for a long talk.

Now, on holidays, secular and sacred, when she is not there I feel her absence.

Happy birthday, dear one. See you in 10 days.

--Well, looks like the socks are for me. The Sensational Socks book requires more math than I like, but seems to work. Yay!

--Ping is doing his summer hair loss, which is a bit...disturbing. Semi-naked pug! (Feels just a little creepy to pick him up since the hair loss is mostly lower half. Weird.)

--Am going to try to talk the fighters into going to Pax without me. I love the event, but every little penny counts right now. A bit over a grand on the Neon last month, and now the Century has to go in (inspection, tires, oil change, strange rattle...). And then there's the dentist, the taxes....

--It was a blessing to go to the calling hours and have the family so...Welsh. I felt right at home. The Browns are more woven into the fabric of our histories than we sometimes realize, but seeing Mark, Debbie, and Arwen brought it all home. However, where the hell does Marcello get off looking so young???!!!!!

some really yummy sock weight/finger weight merino, alpaca, or silk (or blended in any combination), in cool jewel tones of any intensity, enough to make socks or mitts...

I'm just sayin'...

Oh, yeah, and size 0 dps...
