Big Doin’s On The Long Weekend

Progress was made in the studio – mostly yesterday – that is three and a third  shelving units put together by me.  ClosetMaid Cubeicals – great, easy and when I get the other six cubbie drawers I need, it will look much better.  That corner of the room is almost done – I think I may add some step down cubbies to the top but I’m not sure yet.  And I feel like I’m running out of room – and this room is at least twice as large as the craft room I occupied to capacity downstairs.   But – the yarn, it’s all there (except what’s in my ottoman in the living room) Hidden by the cubbie drawers, but they are STUFFED.  I did knit on the Canada sock – I’m through the heel and onward to the toe.  I did touch Ariann, if you look very closely, that’s her, residing in that heap in the right corner – she’s got her own basket next to a chair – place of honor to get working on her when I’m ready.  Oh, and I think I’m selling the Piano – it’s taking up valuable real estate in that room and let’s face it – it’s not getting any playage at all. 

It was a glorious 4 days off – Laurie and I started it off on Friday with a bead/yarn/lunch outting – but alas, no knitting!  So weird, but there were donuts.  Saturday was a friends birthday party.  Sunday I was honored to meet Wesley and shop with Laurie – Fossil bags on sale – need I say more????  Oh, and there was lunch too and visiting at Laurie’s house and knitting.  Sunday was for purchasing, lugging and assembling the shelves – DS2 moved all my yarn for me from downstairs – the knee’s were hurting from the kneeling and the assembling.  He’s a great mover – I think I’ll be employing him again.
