We go back to school Monday and the kids show up on Tuesday. Monday is an in-service of some kind and a nice way that The District has of easing us back into a routine before the screaming hordes arrive the following day. It does lower the stress somewhat.
So what have I done?
Knit. Sleep. Read. Repeat.
Actually I finished something that has taken me three - that's THREE - years to complete, a really neat lace scarf that my mother provided me the yarn, pattern, and eventually, the needles to complete. This thing was a challenge. I restarted it at least a dozen times, gave up at least once until Addi created lace needles in the called for size seven and mom found them at her local yarn shop, and after a zillion lifelines and rips, rips, and more rips, I finally got into the rhythm of the thing and finished it.
And now I want to make one for myself.
Crazy.
But at least I accomplished something.
