Water truck, round two

Filling again. Ate my lunch, puttered online a bit, and plan to dash out to the car for my purse socks after I type this, since I finished the first orange alpaca sock (and forgot to bring yarn for the second). I probably won't get much time to knit this afternoon, since I have a meeting at 1:30 with my supervisor and a civil engineer to look at an erosion problem on the jogging trail, and another meeting at 2:30 with Maintenance Director and the landscape subcontractor for the parking garage, about the dead trees the subcontractor doesn't want to replace.

I plan to spend tomorrow knitting at my government job in the water truck, avoiding the surplus auction. And I get to leave an hour early, since I stayed late for that nonsense last night.

Other knitting news: I did accomplish one thing knitting-wise last night. I finally remembered to have By put a turtleneck on and then try on the black sweater I'm knitting for him, to make sure the armholes were the right depth (before I get the sleeves done and sewn in). It fit ok, so I'm back on track to getting that done. And he likes it. Once that's done, I need to pull out the Lopi sweater I'm doing for myself and finish it, probably a solid weekend's worth of knitting. Then The Sweater--I'd really like to finish that before it gets cold enough to wear it.
