I am SO groggy this morning. The birds started up at 4 am. I closed the window but it didn't help much. I put a pillow over my head and that was a bit better, but I have lots on my mind and I didn't get much more sleep, or at least not restful sleep. Ah well. I'll be awake for sure when I run.
Friday afternoon four of us went up to spend the weekend in a condo at Birch Bay. The weather was sunny, but really not all that warm. There was a little yarn shop and Monika and I spent some time poking around there. Tink got some great walks and we cooked a couple of really good meals. The condo itself was pretty bare bones, a family's weekend retreat that was put up for auction at a fund raiser I attended a few months ago. But it was out of town and that's all that really mattered. I got a little knitting done and I picked out a pattern for the sock yarn I got from my latest YarnBox. I thought this, Venomous Tentacula, would be perfect. Plus it has beads! I haven't knit anything with beads for ages and ages. But first I have to finish my Iwi and it is going slow. I'll have to pick up the pace. I wish it was bus knitting but it's too fiddly with the lace and the splitty yarn and the small needles.
I am super busy at work - going from hardly anything going on to super busy. Crazy. I have a busy week ahead of me and then Saturday morning I'm catching the plane to Nashville. It leaves at 6:30!! And I'm going to be taking the shuttle to the airport and you know that means I'll be picked up in the middle of the night. Maybe I can sleep on the plane but I won't count on it.
And now .... six weeks to Paris! Six weeks!!!! So I'm glad I'm busy.
