Taking a break between tanks of Roundup, letting my hands rest. One more tank to do, then I'm done with this round. And I can spend the afternoon in the truck watering flowerbeds and knitting.

New Boss came in after all, but he says he'll only be in until 10 or so. **crosses fingers** Boss-free time = more time to knit, and to do HSA things on the work computer & printer.

For the doubtful, no, I didn't make it to bed before 11. Did manage to be in bed by 11:30 though. Ended up staying up to do secretarial things, so it was kinda necessary.

classics_cat, I think I've found the perfect pattern for the last of the Zephyr yarn. What do you think of this? Wanna do a knit-along with me? I like the look of it enough I may make it twice--got a couple of other yarns I may try it in, too. In fact, I brought yarn and pattern with me today for water-truck knitting. Doubt I'd have it done in time to wear for the weekend, but it's certainly fun to think about.

Started swatching the tree cable for T's kilt hose, and am half afraid I'll need to re-work the tree to make it fit. It's a much larger pattern than I anticipated. *sigh* Quality time at the drawing board. All else fails, I start going through my collection of cable patterns, and find something bold and funky for his hose.

You **really** need to try this pattern--it's a fast fast fast knit. I started it between noon and noon-thirty, and am 2" from done with the body of the thing. And the I-cord ties would be les than an hour.

**wicked grin** I really want to wear this tonight.
