Eat.Knit.Sleep

First off, let me give the boy credit. I could have gone to Rhinebeck if I wanted to, and he would have come and held my purse. (Maybe not held my purse, and maybe I didn't explain exactly that the little weekend would involve a festival of sheep and wool, but he offered to take me none the less). However, by the time I realized it was a possibility, I had no time to organize and that was fine.  He did promise to take me to Maryland Sheep and Wool, so I am theoretically saving my pennies now.

Now I haven't posted for over a week, so let me try to remember what has happened since then. C's mom has had eye problems since well before I met him, and about a week and a half ago she was hospitalized here.  It was a stressfull couple of days but she is fine. Last Sunday, I went with C and his sister to visit her. We had lunch here  and that was AWESOME. Then C and his sister spent some quality time with their mom, and I went shopping in SoHo. Now, there happens to be a nice shop in SoHo. Maybe you've heard of it . . . Purl.

I may have done some shopping there; I may have even purchased some yarn.
These lovelies are for my mom for her birthday. I got her into knitting socks but she won't splurge on the good stuff. If only I had that problem!

Don't let me convince you that I didn't get anything for me, either.  I also dipped into the Lorna's Laces pot, but not for sock yarn.

Here's my progress:

I have much more to tell including my Secret Pal gift which I have had for a while, Scoop du Jour, some socks for Socktoberfest and some other things but I'm sleepy, I've had some wine, and it is time for bed.

Goodnight.
