This pair just about did me in. I didn't want to knit the second sock, as the first was boring and gray. Very sad. I finished the second one today just in time to post as my March socks for the SAM5 Knit-Along. A bit of color was added to make them less depressing. A slipper sock knit with three strands to use up odd balls of yarn. Now in Christmas Box 08'.
Disappointment: DD #1 said she DID NOT want to go to CWU, where she was accepted. WWU had 9,500 freshman applicants, they accepted only 2,600 freshman for Fall 08. She was not one of the lucky few. She knows several other classmates that didn't make it in, but my sadness is that she wants to stay here and attend the local community college. Most think I'm crazy, how wonderful that she will save us money by not having to pay for room/board/meals. Only tuition. I'll get over it...I just want her to have the college experience that I didn't.
Enough said.
