Away for the Weekend, early!

Yes, I'll be leaving the 'burg here in under 3 hours to head up to visit persephone100, a long-anticipated and hoped for visit now made exceedingly doable thanks to being back in western Virginia. I don't have a laptop and I'm not packing up my stuff (except my flash drive) so I probably won't post except once or twice while with Seph. But we'll be having a fabulous time!!!

In work news, I had training Monday and Tuesday evening and last night was my first proper 3-hour shift calling folks and doing an opinion survey on how lending institutions act. It's not exactly brainy work, but it is very close by, it's something I'm good at and it's an income of a sort. That's all I'm looking for at this juncture. Enough to pay for visiting my therapist and some spending money— I did order yarn for two projects that should have arrived by my return. I totally shifted my queue of projects all around, so now here's what I'll be making:
this cardigan, though I got all inspired by another knitter who also made a camisole so it's a twinset. That's what I'm going to endeavor to do. Different colors; I'll post when I get the yarn. And then this fabulous cardigan out of some kick-ass gradual and subtle variegated yarn.

But now I've got to run! I'll be packing an umbrella, my notebooks, and diet coke. :D If only the crazy mega-blustery wind would ease up! Sheesh.

The blue one is lovely :) Can't wait to see how yours turns out!

It really is! I'll be excited to start on it when I get back, though I think I'll start the cardigan and shell one first.

Say 'hi' to Persephone for me! Have a great weekend.

Have you ever considered knitting as a source of income? Giving classes, knitting to order, that sort of thing? You seem to be very good at it.

You know, I haven't. I did start to teach knitting at Portland Opera for free, but I've not thought about knitting for money. I don't know that people would pay what it would be worth, time-wise! But it's food for thought…
