Weekend the short version

Mostly I sat around not walking the stairs.  I walked 8 flights of stairs to feed my neighbor’s cat Saturday morning and then headed back to bed.  When I got out of bed at about 9 a.m. , I discovered that my left knee was causing me a great deal of pain.  So, I spent the rest of the weekend resting it.  At this point it feels much better, so hopefully that trend will continue.  We did take a quick trip out on Saturday afternoon and bought a couple of dresses.  I’m still really please with a second-hand store we found plus Target is always good for some deals.

Since I was mostly sitting around I started a new knitting project.  Not the blanket that I need to complete by Tuesday but a sweater for me.   Thursday night we drove to Michael’s to get yarn and Friday my dear hubby went back to buy a set of interchangeable circular needles for this and many future projects.  With a 50% off coupon the set was not a bad deal.  So now I’m several hours into a new project that is likely out of my skill range…but hey, I’m doing it anyway.  We have both grown acustom to my projects evolving after knitting and ripping out and re-knitting.  So much for completing projects for gifts.  If you don’t get a gift from us this year it’s because I am knitting for myself.  Sorry.
