The Vest is a blockin’ and The House is a rockin’ !!!
When all had given up hope that The Vest would ever be finished, the day has arrived! I won’t post a pic until the Boar can model it for us. This was a project that sat in my knitting bag for two years. There it sat, completely finished except for the seaming of the buttonbands! And there I sat, completely ignoring it.
I have made such a friggin big deal about this vest that you may be expecting to see some knitting miracle, something so spectacular it could only be a mirage. Don’t get your hopes up — it is simply a stockinette stitch vest.
The thought consuming my brain today is that I am leaving tomorrow!! hip-hip-hooray! Join in, won’t you while I chant the B-52’s song:
I got me a car
It’s as big as a whale and
We’re About to Set Sail!
We’re heading down the Jersey Turnpike
Looking for the Sheep Festival!
And what a weekend I am leaving behind. Among the many things to get done:
- Saturday
- drive daughter #1 to SAT’s
- drive daughter #2 for eye exam
- drive 1 & 2 to barn
- pick up 1 & 2 from barn
- drive #1 to movies to meet up with friends
- pick up from movies
- feed yourselves & dogs
- Sunday
- back to barn
- pick up from barn
- make sure #2 helps out in packing up trunk containing horse related horse show items for away show next week
- feed yourselves & dogs
- straighten house before Mom gets home
they can do it!!! they are all fully-functioning human beings — I refuse to believe otherwise.
