Down the street:

Its looks pretty calm, doesn't it?

Earlier today, someone rear ended us. Note this is her car.

The nice officer who took our statement.

Notice that smile? The I'm holding the sock for the Crazy Lady, because she's having a bad day.

We're okay, a bit stiff. It could have been worse. A lot worse.

Wake Up

There was a lightening strike so close to the house, the kitchen window rattled and the smell of ozone hung in the air for a minute. Thunder rumbled for a full 30 seconds.

Man, I love fall!

3/5th's

Today's sunrise is a lovely golden pink color. It hardly makes up for the temporal distortion I'm feeling, but it does help. Yesterday I kept thinking it was Wednesday, believe me, I knew it was only Tuesday but kept thinking it anyway. We get home and it pops into my head, I'm glad Thursday is over. WTF? It really doesn't help I haven't gone to bed before 2100 the past two nights.

I've been studying for the certification, but seriously, I haven't worked tech support in over five years. They should spend the money on someone who will use it. Anyway, by the end of the day I couldn't concentrate at all, the words kept blurring together.

At break today, I grabbed my knitting and cup then walked across the building to go hang out with a friend. I get there, pull out the knitting and realized I needed to measure for the heel. Yip, no measuring tape. Gathered up my stuff, filled the cup in the break room and knitted at my desk.

I'm half way through the heel flap and quite frankly I'm bored of all my projects. It must be the winter blahs heading in early. Stupid global climate change.

Down the street, it was almost a stormy evening.

The body of Grilltech's sweater.

The frosty morning leaves.

I didn't have a supervisor out there with me, so one had to be blurry.
