Reevaluating

my current knitting projects. I've been reading a lot lately. Blame the Kindle Fire I got for Christmas! And since I still haven't discovered a way to read and knit at the same time, well knitting is suffering. And no, I won't turn to audio books. I've tried them and they bug the crap out of me. Thanks, but I prefer the voices in my head ;)

The Spring Socks- are going to be frogged and I think they shall become socks for the kiddo. She's totally into the colors now, so I think she would love them. But I have no plans to actually cast on for these any time soon.

The White Witch Mitts- Frankly, I'm not even sure where I am at in the pattern it's been that long since I even looked at them. The color work just takes too much concentration and is too messy to take with me anywhere.

Isabel's scarf- This is my "Go To" project when I find myself sitting on the couch watching silly TV shows. Which isn't often enough anymore to make the scarf any farther along than maybe 1/2 way. The unfortunate consequence of knitting while watching TV is I get involved in what I am watching, mess up and end up ripping back to where I was before I started knitting that day, lol. One step forward, two steps back.

Crazy Quilt Blanket- Haven't knit a single square in ages. I have several balls of yarn meant solely for the blanket, just can't be bothered to cast on and get things moving.

So all in all, there is NO KNITTING going on in my house. Or at least not enough to really make a difference.

Snow Day!

Well, not really. I'm off work today anyway and the kiddo was going to stay home sick, sooooo. But the unofficial measurement this morning in our area was 9" of snow. And it's really windy, so it's blowing around a lot as well. The forecast claims we will get more during the day, but honestly, I think it has mostly passed us by. We will see, they are saying another 6" is heading our way. Denver on the other hand, got dumped on! They expect to be close to 18" when it's all said and done!

Fired manager update: Of course she's telling anyone who will listen that she was fired because of a miscommunication and 3 sick days. She's leaving out 2/3 of the info, because of course this makes her look more like a victim than the truth! Why oh why, can't people take responsibility for their own actions anymore?? Most logical people will realize that large corporations don't willy nilly fire people. Most are so afraid of wrongful termination suits that it takes a lot to get fired these days, even though most states offer At Will employment. Of course, most of her friends aren't real logical, lol. And she's not telling anyone that she's only the 2nd employee our boss has fired in 5 years!
