bunrabWe haven't been up to much lately. The usual band rehearsals. Got the gutters cleaned. Got the lawn mowed. If it's not pouring rain, Friday a guy will come to clean up the pool, get it ready for summer. Also if it's not pouring rain, a couple of guys to move boxes from bedrooms to basement, so we can finish organizing bedrooms. If it is raining, however, as it is right now, then those will get put off.
And Thursday was our 21st anniversary. I had bought Spouse some CDs we both wanted and books for us both to read, for his birthday in April; he bought me some CDs we both wanted for our anniversary, along with the DVD of Serenity, which for some reason we didn't already have. Also, my new desktop computer arrived. I have been putting together the new computer desk, while spouse loads software onto the computer and hooks things up. Kit furniture is definitely my department.
And now, the latest pair of sox! Click on little pics to see big pics.

These are made with Sockotta cotton blend sock yarn, on #2 circular needles, and I did little rows of seed stitch along the leg to perk it up a bit. These took about 2 weeks of knitting in the car on the way to and from rehearsals and concerts, to finish. It's difficult to do larger projects in a moving car, both because of seat size and seat belt, and because stuff on straight needles is too easy to pull right off if the car goes over a bump, but socks are just right for car trips. Gotta watch more CSI at home to finish the larger things like Anita's poncho and Mary Grace's afghan.
Next post should be from new computer!!
