Quick update while filling the truck
Aka--a good excuse to sit in the AC while putting gas in the truck.
Redneck airconditioning: holding the water hose over your own head before putting it on the tree.
Don't laugh, it helps. It's too hot to care how I look today. Definitely too hot to worry about "looking professional".
I haven't managed as much knitting as I'd wanted to today; I ended up pulling weeds in a couple of shrub beds in between moving the hose. Three truckloads id weeds later, I'm mostly done, and knitting again. I'm about halfway through the burdock motif on the foot of the sock, so about 2/3 of the way to the heel. If I finish these soon, I have an excuse to start another pair of something *grin* I've actually been contemplating a pair of dress socks for Byron....black and carcoal grey, just enough contrast to see the pattern, but very subtle. We'll see. That idea would involve buying sock yarn, which I really can't justify doing right now. Gotta use up what I have first--more knititng, what a hardship!
Truck's done filling, so I'm off again. Yes, you knew that. I said it anyway.
