I know I need to get off my lazy butt and take photos of my current projects–I’ll use the excuse of rainy weather coupled with laziness, however. It has been rainy here in Virginia all week–Tuesday morning on Election Day, I stood in line for 2 hours in the rain waiting to vote. My fellow voters and I were all prepared–we had umbrellas–but the rain that started that morning has continued throughout the rest of the week.
Today I had more car trouble, missed work, had to take the car back to Sears, and it’s “fixed” again. They fiddled with the battery (apparently it wasn’t connected properly?!) and all–cross your fingers!–is well again.
Now, a knitting meme, seen over at knitv:
