Yikes! I just realized that I haven't mentioned yarn or knitting kinda stuff since October. Wow. Can you tell that I've had other stuff going on? My interests are wide and varied and I seem to have the attention span of a flea lately.
There is a reason that the attention span is so tiny right now. Remember me telling you about the hubby losing his job? Well, another has come along. We're not thrilled about it, but we're going to have to take it. He has sent out a bazillion resumes and nobody is calling for interviews. I mean, Atlanta is a big place. Isn't there somebody hiring around here? So, the new job. It's in Raleigh, NC. He starts in December and will be there by himself for a good while.
See, we've got numerous things that have to be done to our house before we can sell it, we have rental property to deal with and the kids are still in school. The housing market still sucks so it looks like we'll end up losing money and then still not be able to get a loan for a new house in NC cause we won't have any cash to roll over into a new house. Sucks huh? On top of that, he's not going to be getting paid very much.
At this point, we're not even sure that we'll be able to survive even with the new job because of the moving issues! See, I told ya there was a lot on my mind right now!
However, this is a knitting blog and there should occasionally be knitting to look at right? Here's where the sweater stands at the moment:
I have finished the front and back and I've begun the first sleeve. I started that while on the school bus rides to and from the Ga Aquarium yesterday. The kids were so funny about it too. Is that hard? Why are you doing that? Do you take that everywhere you go? They were so fascinated that someone would be knitting on the bus.
