Re-reading my last post made me realise that I didn’t quite emphasize the hard work enough. Theatre is in now way all galas and famous people. I just had a good September. Now I’m working Monday to Friday, 9-5 in retail (albeit in a bookstore) and then going to rehearsals (and soon shows) from 6pm – 11pm-ish. It’s going to be later than 11pm after the show opens, it’s a 2 hour 40 minute show (with 15 minute intermission) that starts at 8pm. Late nights, early mornings. But I enjoy it.

We had our first snow of the year today. I’m wondering if I should put down the jacket for a bit and finish thrummed mitten #2. I’ve had one done since about January. I ran out of roving, but the lovely people at Fleece Artist sent me more. Of course, by that time I had lost interest. Actually, I think I was slaving on mum’s birthday stole. And then work got crazier and suddenly it was summer, and who needs thrummed mittens in the summer?

I think I may do that, it would serve a few purposes:
a) that’d be one more UFO gone. I haven’t had a FO since…. my last Jaywalker, so May-ish.
b) I’d be done by the time I need them
c) one less ball out of stuff in the stash
d) I’d turn any leftover yarn into Christmas ornaments! The copy of Handknit Holidays I ordered from work came in today, and I’m all inspired.
