Turning our Heels...

I haven't blogged in almost a week, and I haven't worked out in almost a week, I think I've been busy. Wednesday I had to take my Beetle to the shop and it is all broken, very expensively...that put a big fat damper on an otherwise good week. Then Thursday morning we locked the keys in the car while it was still running. All of this stress caused me to knit frantically during every free moment I had. This rush of knitting productivity got me passed the turning of my sock's heel. I have not worked on much of my homework which is a bit of a problem, but I can tell I've needed to knit because I know how much it calms me down. At this stress rate i will have the socks done by the end of next week!
I'm writing my family assessment now and hope to finish that up and get started on my reading for group and my online posting. Grad school is way more work than undergrad ever was, I know I was expecting that but somehow I am still a bit surprised. That and I really wasn't expecting my car to poop out on me. A 5 year old car should not have a clutch that just falls out, and a compressor that gives up. I guess thats the way life is, you do so well and then you're destined to hit a bump in the road. At least I have my knitting! (And a very sweet fiancee to keep me sane...)

Pictures!

Check out the Work in Progress section for pictures of all of my recent projects, finished and in the works. I am blocking Salt Peanuts and it looks so good! I can't wait to get it all seamed up, even though I'm dreading the actual seaming itself. I am going to try and post a picture of Floyd at the end of this post to see if it works. I'll post the rest of my pictures in the Works in Progress Section.
