I worked on my taxes last night. Mine and #1 Son’s. I don’t have all of the necessary stuff yet to complete mine, but I did have all of his. I don’t think he was too happy with the result. Alas, becoming a responsible, tax-paying citizen is tough.

In good news, today I received the info for my Sockapaloooza pal! I can’t wait to get started, and I already have some ideas. I know what color she likes, so now I just need to find yarn. Oh, gee, I have to go yarn shopping… 🙂 I already know what I think I’d like to get.

I’m almost done with the Vera socks. I have two pattern repeats and the ribbing left to do. I might be able to finish tonight, if I go home and actually knit!

When the Veras are done I have to start on a small project that I need to have finished in two weeks. There’s plenty of time! And then the next pair of socks is taking shape in my mind.

I’m really on a sock kick this year for some reason.

    • I am happy to engage in discussion with those who accept that technology and affluence are a net plus, but who worry about their troubling side effects. Spare me, however, the sensitive souls who deplore technological advance and economic growth over their cell phones on their way to the airport.
