So I have had a interesting few days around here. The weather is trying its best to inflict its damage on us poor humans. I have been walking in the tunnels to get to and from work. It is a tad bit faster that way and definitely warmer (and at least no wind chill). My volleyball team won this week. (we were completely crushed last week. have no idea why. it seemed like we moved underwater while the other team wasn't so hindered) and Sue got to watch us play. Got some good/bad news at work. A co-worker is leaving and she is not allowed to be replaced (ah! great management system there) So what once was a team of 11 people, is now down to 7. Dan is getting her position, I am getting Dan's, and well I am also doing my stuff (minus my daily filing). SO everything is a bit off. And, to top it off, we are being moved back to 35. I feel like shouting MAKE UP YOUR MINDS! But perhaps they have none to make up. Got a package from my mother with my niece's latest picture in it. They grow up fast, but I do love how she looks so like me and my sister that it feels like she's a twin throwback.

Read the funniest thing today. Loved it!! So if I did not send you the blimp link be warned! too funny!

Knitting news: I finished the BACK of the koko kimono sweater for Jean's baby to be. Poor Jean was in a car accident right after I asked her if the color was ok. I am trying very hard to knit only good and happy thoughts into the baby sweater. I have knit a bit on the beaded purse, but will put it down tonite to get to Darci's purse. I will have access to a washer this weekend to full it and I want to make sure it is DONE. (if it doesn't get done, I'll try it at the laundrymat instead)

Other knit news (that might not seem like it at first): I bought tickets to goto FLORIDA with my mother to visit my grandfather. I also got a list of Local Yarn Shops to visit. Called my Aunt Gerri and asked her to check with my Uncle Tommy to see when I can see them when I am down there. And lastly, I got another email from Teva Durham today. I didn't know if she liked my work on the last design I knit for her, but she obviously liked it enough to ask me to knit another garment for her before March 1st. It makes me feel good to knit for her book, I hope she likes my work.
