for about the billionth (give or take a few million) time that most of the time, more is not better. As in: see how busy I am? See how efficiently I keep everything going smoothly (uh-huh, right) and just how well I manage to be all things to all people? See? All this is leading up to my feelings of frustration of not getting everything on my to do list accomplished last weekend. Never mind that I started said list about three months ago and for every cross off, another three things are added. All I can say about this impossible list is that everything on it seemed like such a good idea at the time.
As for knitting projects, all is finished on the Drop Stitch Shawl, except for blocking, which is (0f course) at or near the top of The List. Mirrorsocks are presently in time out. I’m stuck somehow on the gusset, it’s obvious that I’m screwing it up somehow but heck if I know how. It’s just wonky looking and I’m torn between forging ahead with the pattern, no matter what or frogging and giving it another go. Maybe I’ll flip a coin.
Here’s a new pic of the Papoose, we had a wonderful visit over the weekend, just can’t get enough Susannah love! She’s so proud of those new teeth!
Others have been here before me, and I walk in their footsteps. The books I have read were composed by generations of fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, teachers and disciples. I am the sum total of their experiences, their quests. And so are you. Elie Wiesel
