Still here . . .
Really, I am. But, man, oh man . . . this cold or whatever has kicked my sizable tail, let me tell you. I still have a sore throat - comes and goes as I cough or sleep or talk or whatever. There doesn’t seem to be a rhyme or reason for it. I’ll be glad when that is over.
And, the coughing . . . don’t even get me started on the coughing. Really, please don’t - because once I get started coughing, it’s hard to stop. And, the after effects . . . well, let’s not go there. Like I said - I’ll be glad when it is all over. I’ve missed several hours at work this week. It was a holiday today (Alaska Day) so the office was closed and I slept in. How nice is that!
I promised I would tell you about the Big Sock in my next post, so here you go.
Alaska has the Big Sock! Yup, we sure do. Last Saturday I met some of the local knitters from ravelry and we added some rows to the sock - then we measured it against our height - if this thing is going to be 9 feet or better before the heel is turned, it still has a way to go, but it is getting there.
And, tomorrow? I have a surprise planned for you all . . . the Sock is going to the Funky Monkey coffee shop for a few hours . . . and I am going to take the computer again . . . didn’t have a wireless hookup last weekend, but should tomorrow. I hope to do a bit of live blogging! So, check back and if you have questions or what not, comment on the entry and we will try to accommodate with answers.
See, I aim to please
