I’ve been back from Chicago for about 5 weeks now. It’s been a period of adjustment but I’m enjoying this experience so far.
Here’s what’s been going on:
This is the mileage I got on my first tank of diesel with the new car! I’m very impressed.
I took a corespinning workshop at the Twist Festival and all I want to do is spin now.
I started a pair of socks for Steve. I used 2.25 mm needles at first but they were too tight. I switched to 2.75 mm needles and I hated how loose the stitches were. Now I’m using 2.5 mm needles and although I’m not a fan, they will do. One sock down, one to go.
Jacob had a show at a bar in Downtown Ottawa – which was awesome as usual. I’m always so proud of him when he’s up there.
I stumbled on this project: No. 41.
Go read about it. It’s really cool. Love the bag.
Spent the day in Gatineau Park on Saturday at the MacKenzie King Estate. Funny how these amazing places are all around us, yet we don’t know they’re there.
I’ve gone a little crazy this week. I found out I can’t carry any of my time off over to next year. So, I’m off this week, took an extra week at the beginning of November and another week at the end of November. I booked a weekend yoga retreat for two weeks from now that I’m super-excited about. It’s so close – only a few hours’ drive near Kingston on Wolf Island. Yesterday, I booked an apartment for five nights in NYC for the beginning of November. I might get to finally see the leaves in Central Park!
I’ve got a lot of adventure coming up. It’s awesome!
