Knitting Interrupted

Thank you all for your kind words about my sweater (and a few nice words about my butt). That sweater was like another child to me, and I'm grateful it was so well received.

I know I promised another FO last week. But unfortunately my potential FO still looks like this.



We decided to have a yard sale over the weekend. And then the Greatest conveniently went out of town. So I was left alone with the task of organizing it. The largest job by far was organizing the baby clothes.



I sorted them by size and gender. It was quite a job. I get tired just thinking about it. But the yard sale was a big success. We sold all the large baby items on Friday, and most of the baby clothes on Saturday.

I spent Sunday recovering from it all, the crazy shoppers, the mad organizing, the price haggling (who haggles when everything's been marked down to a quarter?) and the sunburn.

Oh, I'm sunburned.

It's a bad sunburn like I've never had, really painful. And to add insult to injury I've got the ugly white stripe where my sunglasses were. It's a hot look. I'm sure it will catch on soon. Pretty soon everyone will be sporting the red and white face. I'd show you pictures but I can't.

Today I took the children to a local fair. It was lots of fun and I'd love to show you pictures of that as well, but The Greatest is out of town (again) with the camera. So I am a photoless blog this week. He took the camera, the mp3 player, the DVD player from the car, and the cell phone. I hid my Palm otherwise I think he might have taken that with him as well. I'm going through gadget withdraw.

Atleast with him out of town I can get lots of knitting done. I hope to have many FOs soon. I've got three of my UFO August projects almost done. My fingers are flying without him to distract me.

I miss him.
