I'm supposed to be putting up my pears (I decided to dry them, right?), making plum jam, and doing something with all those impossible almonds from my almond tree. Instead, I dream of more knitting while driving the kids everywhere, trying to decide how often to cross the cable on those leg warmers...
Speaking of leg warmers, I can't even get knitting out of my mind while exercising. I've got plans for a series of ballet knitting patterns. Mostly the classics, not something crazy and new. But today in ballet I stared at the teacher's sweater trying to decide if I'd rather do a provisional cast-on with a folded hem, or a tiny bit of ribbing on the bottom edge when I designed the sweater. I completely missed the combination she was teaching...
Last night I made some progress on the Radiating Star Blanket while watching the Presidential debates. There is no better description of how I feel about it than this Non Sequitur comic by Wiley Miller. If only...
But all in all it was still a good day. The fall leaves have been amazing, and it snowed last night! I got to dance, have lunch with my 3rd grader, have dinner with my sister and her kids, and now listen to my children chattering while they're supposed to be asleep. And my hubby will be home from his trip tomorrow!
