I’ve been under the weather this week.  As a result,  I haven’t made much progress on the gown.   It’s looking very cute though… have a look.

I figure I'm about 1/3 done.

I like the leaves.  I think they’re really cute.

I always do at least one row in the morning.  The plain ones take about 15 minutes.  The ones with yo’s and sl 1, k2tog, passo’s take a little longer.  This morning, I wanted to knit another row.  It was either a post or knit another row.  Either way, I have to take a very quick shower or I’ll be late for work.

It’s been a strange week.  On Monday, I thought it was Tuesday, and so on and so forth.  So, today feels like Saturday and I can’t believe I’m at work…

I got to come home right after work on Monday, which was nice because Jacob had been home sick all day.  I suppose it was good timing – March Break.  Poor kid though.  We had a good time either way.  All week, I’ve been appologising for not taking the time off.  When I was a kid, both my parents were teachers.  I guess I just grew up assuming everyone’s parents were off during the Break and everyone did something fun.  I have guilt!!!

Jacob was sick again on Tuesday but felt much better than Monday.

Wednesday, I cancelled my plans after work, swung by home, picked up Jacob and we headed to Ottawa.  We hit the Chapter’s (my fave store in the whole world) and then had steaks at Montana’s.  We waited a long time for our food but, they have that craft paper on the tables and crayons in a glass so we played hangman until the food came.  My first word was Y-A-R-N.  I can’t believe he didn’t get it!!!  It was such a blast.

I still have guilt.  I wanted to do something more with him.  Maybe next year???

Tonight, I’m knitting.  Well, after running and driving all over the three counties anyway.  I’m committed to getting past the second pin-tuck this weekend!  After that, it’s a lot of repetition.  I have to remember to check the pattern either way so that I don’t miss any decrease rows.  I’ve done that a few times.  It worked out but, it scared me anyway.

The Break
