U2

Today I'm working on a bunch of data changes for MGH.  So boring, which actually gets stressful because I have to try so hard to stay focused.  In October DH and I are going to see U2 up in Charlottesville, VA (we bought the tickets before the Raleigh show had been announced), and I find myself listening to them a lot lately.  Today it dawned on me what they sound like to me... a sunrise.  They have so many crescendos and the way the music flows is like the sun coming up over an East Coast beach and warming my face.  Maybe that's why I get such energy when I listen to them!

Update: pics of the baby sweater

Some knitting!

For Mother's Day I knit Mom two dishcloths.  I hope she actually uses them - she tends to tell me things are 'too pretty' to use, which drives me nuts.  For me that's the whole point of knitting - something pretty and unique to use!

Now for myself I finally finished my wrap around cardigan.  Not the greatest picture, but it has become one of my favorite sweaters.  And it's MACHINE WASHABLE!  Thank you Knit Picks!

I finished knitting the baby sweater for Traci's new little girl Louisa.  When I was waiting for this photo to upload I finally figured out what I was going to do for the button - I have a vintage looking clasp that would be gorgeous on it.  Now to sew it on and mail it up to them in NH!

And finally I started a pair of socks for Dad for Father's day.  Hopefully I can finish them in time... if not, oh well, he understands!  I love doing them both at the same time - no more 'onesockitis'!
