More CIC socks, more house prep, great yarn sale
8 pairs of socks for CIC are done. More to go.
I just ordered 10 skeins of Lamb's Pride Worsted in Cherry Swirl from Diane at Pollywogs Yarn & Fiber. She posted a sale (WHAT a sale!) for the LPW and LPW superwash on Knitswap and I couldn't resist - warm wooly socks for moi, warm wooly socks for CIC, and some holiday gifts. Didn't want to spend the $ at this slow time of year, butcha gotta take advantage of the really good bargains when they come along!
Today, I spread out 8 bags of mulch in the front beds after I weeded them, and primed part of the back porch railing, amongst 2 loads laundry and various small loads of handwashing and the usual household chores. It's 8 pm and time to sit and knit socks.
More painting tomorrow. I've painted enough houses (how many times over?!) and apartments for 4 people - seems to be my lot in life!
