Woo hoo, the sun is shining! Of course its also 20 degrees, but the sun is shining. It has been so grey and dark lately that I turn on every light in my office in order to not get depressed.
Lindsey had violin lessons last evening as opposed to tonight. Tonight she has a swim meet. Usually, I knit while she is having her lessons. I didn't knit last evening. I frogged. I frogged Zachariah mitten (note, I said mitten not mittens . . . almost had it finished but can't find the pattern, duh and only had one done). I frogged my sampler scarf. It seemed the best thing to do since I didn't like it. It is a beautiful color and yarn (Knitpicks Andean Silk in Cranberry) but not enough really to do a scarf. I can do a pair of fetchings and considering the fact that my office is usually around 64 degrees when I arrive in the morning, it would be a good thing . . . I do have a space heater but as soon as I turn it off the temp starts plummeting. Or maybe I'll make a cowl.
A friend pointed out the cloths by Kris Patay at KrisKnits. Seriously, you all should check out her stuff and her blog. She is an incredible artist. I think I am going to make her heart cloth for valentine's day for Sarah and Kyle.
The swim season for Lindsey is winding down. I can hardly wait. They have a meet tonight and one on Saturday and two next week. That is it until the Sectionals which start on February 14. Now, she has spent months swimming. Months. Most times, it was two hours a day for six days a week. Over Christmas break, they swam four hours a day, every day, except for Christmas and New Year and on Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve, they only swam two hours. And so, what is her concern, part of her hopes that she doesn't make sectionals because Andrew invited her to his school's winter formal and it is on February 14. She is one of the top swimmers on her team and she is an idiot.
