damn

i was so gonna take a million photos and post this week while dave is gone for a conference...and i had to catch the flu/cold/whatever it is that is going around. just imagine half sewn baby clothes for my friend kate, a half completed sweater pulled out of the UFO bag of shame, hogwarts socks more than half completed, and another pair for myself struggling to be more than just toes. i'm working on stuff i swear. i just have to get up the energy to get out of bed. oh and when i do they expect me in at work today. ugh. 2.5 hours till shift is too late to call in huh? damn.

photos soon i swear.
til then try to guess which sweater i'm working on :)
