Y3: Self-Imposed Year of Projects - Update #39

Happy Sunday :)

Today marks the last day of Husband's paternity leave from work. He goes back tomorrow...and I might be okay with it. Maybe. We'll see.

Anyway, we're not here to talk about that...it's Sunday and that means it's time for my Year of Projects update :)

I'm ready to start the heel flap on the first of Snape's Stockings...not that I've started it but I'm at that point. That's always helpful. It means I worked a few rounds here and there this past week :) 

And then....well, I went and started a new project. Oops. I suppose it's because I need to make two more of the Sacrificial Goats so, you know, I should get going...and luckily, they're fairly quick projects and I can do it all in parts...but they're still going to take a little while. Sooooo....yeah. 



Anyway, moving on...remaining lists (hahahahahahahahaha!)........

  2. Normalcy will come again. It may not be the same as before Stormageddon made his entrance, but it will come back. So glad to hear you got a little crafting time this week. Hopefully, you will get a wee more each day, just to help you with stress relief.

  6. I hope you have a good week and can combine knitting with baby care and all the other million things you probably have calling your name. In my day there was no "paternity" leave but just as well as males back then were just another baby to take care of...it would have been like having twins! LOL! I hope they've changed by now! enjoy your children and relax as much as possible.
