Missing Them

I miss my students. Mid-year Regents exams began last Tuesday and the kids only came in to take the few exams they had to take. I saw a few of my juniors on the days of the English Regents (nope, not a typo, days as in two) but that was it. Classes resume on Thursday and I hope that my kids, both Knitters and Scholars, come to visit. Knitting club will not resume until the 13th due to the club fair next Tuesday. I may just have to run an abbreviated club on the 8th just to get my one-on-one kid fix in. The building is so empty this week that we could actually hear the squirrels making more squirrels on top of my air conditioner. Kind of freaky, actually.

On the personal knitting front, I am booking on Sis's hat and am still on target to finish it by the weekend. The sock has been ripped and restarted twice and will be ripped and restarted again once I get the book I ordered today. The yarn is screaming to be made in to Mermaid socks but I first had to buy the book with the pattern in it. In the meantime I have started a Booga Bag with the Noro Kureyon that my Sock-ret pal gave me.

So much for my pledge of keeping new projects to a minimum.

sheesh, don't they know that all the experts say it's a bad idea to have an affair with a co-worker? Oh wait..they haven't been hired yet!

Squirrel sex. You know, you could probably tape it and sell it for lots of money somewhere on the internets...

Did you wind up with enough needles? Do you need more?
