I guess I didn't have the laptop for a while, and have been crazy busy, but I have not blogged for a long long time. But in the meantime, I did get a year older, and now am "older" than our Administrative Services Director (who claims she is 32).
But I have knitted...
This is my latest baby blanket. I did finish three blankets as well for the Purdue grad students (as commissioned by P), and am looking at what next. I bought a sock book and another toy book, but I think I have made enough toys for A & J so far.
What else have I been doing? I bought the Martha Stewart cookie book, and have made one yummy creation so far. I will make another kind tomorrow, and bring it to the women in student affairs book club. We read full frontal feminism, and I am excited to discuss. It's interesting to see what younger feminists are writing.
I will stop now, and watch the daily show. Soon I will get better at this whole thing...

it's been a while
So, here I am in Oshkosh, WI, relaxing in my hotel room after an exhausting but fun OPE. It has been a week and a half of interviews -- both student and professional staffs. But now I have a little time to enjoy my hotel room and relax. I can't believe it's only two weeks until the big day, and I feel a bit old. Hopefully soon that will pass...
At least I have been able to visit my favorite coffee shop and get the wonderful chocolate from hughes' -- I can't get enough of that! I didn't do any outlet shopping this year, but I don't really need anything. One of the crazy things that happened is that my former boss (and now friend) and I were talking about a colleague, and she CALLED while we were at dinner! How strange the world is...
I am on blanket number two of the three commissioned blankets for purdue grad students -- the spring green is gorgeous. I start on the sunshine one soon. So my knitting world has been mainly baby blankets, but I will find something new to do soon.
Enough of blathering for tonight -- I must sleep.
