It’s Monday. But today is Valentine’s Day, and it was a free coffee day, so it’s a good day. I like Valentine’s Day. I don’t expect to have a lot of Valentines, and that’s OK. It gives me an excuse to go around smiling at people and eating chocolate. Not that I don’t do that anyway… but today I have a good excuse.

Not much accomplished over the weekend except a lot of knitting on my sock scarf. I’m about 1/2 way done. How do I know? Because I’ve used about 1/2 of my available yarn. I started at one toe, and I’ve turned the heel and gone up the leg and done the top ribbing, and just started down the other side. The instep and leg are worked in fishtail cables. I’ve been looking for an excuse to use that pattern and this looked like a reasonable one. I’ll post a pic soon.

I also managed to get “my stuff” cleaned out of the Outback, henceforth designated as “#1 Son’s Car” even though he can’t yet officially drive it without me. I promise to warn the greater Portland Metro area when that day arrives.
