In Which an Awful Truth Emerges...

For nine months of the year I have no life. Not just the usual teachers have no life, but I was thinking about it the other day, and even if I lived near somewhere to go shopping, and if I had a car, I pretty much don't have time to go shopping during term. So, with a weekend off I'm hoping to get a few things done. Basically, I finished one of the fine gauge dishcloths I'm slowly working on,

and I turned the heel on my second Time Traveler sock; now I can zoom down the foot and get these DONE! Double bonus; Stash Dash AND my floors are super cold!

Oh yeah, I had to pull out a few rows on my mystic spiral sock because I thought I was done with the short rows, and the more I looked at it, the more I was convinced that I was a row off. So, I went back, fixed it, and am now set to zoom on towards the heel. Picture next week hopefully!

I made kettle corn for the first time following here; using coconut oil is a nice touch, though my regular oil worked well too. I'm wondering now if using the raw Zambian sugar will make any difference...

That's basically it for this week! I'm hoping to get some solid relaxing/knitting time in this weekend; I'm pushing really hard to be all/mostly caught up on marking so I can actually chill. Boy do I need it!

Happy winter solstice!
