If it weren't for my knitting, I might be in jail...

There have been some really challenging moments in this week, but it's over now and I have a glorious weekend off to recover and SLEEP. Dude, why can't you cash in on all those naps that were more for your parents than you?

In the midst of my 'stuff,' I've made some good progress on some knitting projects. I finished the first of three charts on the Serenitybaby blanket last night; this is the last time I'll be able to spread it all out flat because of how big it's getting. Exciting!

I'm also in the ribbed boarder that DOES NOT END on my TARDIS shawl; I'm at the point now where because of a) the weather and b) the project I'm itching to cast on that I just want this to be finished and in use.

I got most of my container boxes at one point or another this week, and I decided to display some of the lovely Mountain Colors mill ends I scored in Montana. So far the cat has only attacked them once...

One thing that really made a big impression of me when I was a kid, was a notebook where my mom had copied out and sometimes illustrated some of her favorite poems. I have been wanting to start one myself, and when I got my lovey leather dragon notebook I decided that the time had come. I've really enjoyed working on this--the smell of the leather, the feel of the handmade paper, and enjoying some of my favorite words. No wonder my kids think I'm bonkers...

So, that was this week. Oh, sleep, glorious sleep! I plan to spend some time with thee today!

Parting shot: Some guy made all these nerdy blocks for his son--dude, send me one or THOSE guys! This is totally the coolest thing I've seen all week!
