While in Hiding...
Jan. 3rd, 2009 06:12 pm...do as others do. I kind of feel like I'm hiding at home, but there's not anywhere else to be at the moment.
It's been rather boring here. I've settled into a comfortable pattern of get up, make food, read/knit/reconcile accounts/watch TV until it's late, and then go to bed. By making food, I mean actually cooking. In the past three days I've made two omelets, a steak, chicken and dressing, chicken noodle soup, sausage and cheese balls, and cookies (pre-made, I just baked 'em). The joy of cooking for six people is that they eat it all up.
I also finished Tim's mitts, knitting-wise. I still have to embroider the little Naruto sigils on them. But hey! Finished objects mean I get to start another project. I'm kind of stuck on it, honestly. I would love to knit a small but very pretty Christmas ornament, despite the fact that holidays have passed and we took down the tree today. However, I don't have the right size needles. I could do a belt, but I need more colors of yarn from my apartment (I'm going there tomorrow). Alternatively, I could just find a pattern that works with what I have with me, but then I'll be stuck with it until it's done, and wish I was doing what I originally intended. So...tomorrow things will get sorted.
P.S. I realized I never followed up on the finals business. To my shock, I got A's across the board. I now have a real shot at being a cum laude graduate.
See ya,
Greene
