It's been a week

Not a week since I posted; I know it's been longer than that. More like, "How've you been?"

"It's been a week."

The gloves class was fabulous, but it was awfully hard to be up so early. Saturday after class we went to go visit my grandfather in the hospital for his annual we-think-it's-pancreatitis-but-we-don't-really-know-what's-happening visit. My mom went again on Monday but I needed to stay at school. Thuesday and Wednesday must have been days we tried to recover, and Thursday was back at the hospital. Friday I had dinner with an old friend, her husband and her two charming children. Anyone have a chart for a firetruck sweater? Saturday was back in the hospital and Sunday was catching up for the store. Thankfully, my grandfather went home yesterday, so that's a big stress that's been removed.

Hopefully I'll have my camera back soon and I can update some photos. Here's the status of some projects:

• Sanquhar gloves: thumb and index finger "complete", working on middle finger. I'll finish the tips when all the fingers are done to tr to get the best fit.
• Rowan sweater: back and front are complete, one sleeve is about half finished. I really want to wear this, so I've been trying to make some progress.
• Rogue: Did I mention that I'm starting Rogue? After a couple of false starts because I wasn't reading the directions (twisted it, didn't start the cable after the turning row, made it skew when I knitted up the hem...) it's going well now. I'm at the waist.
• Socks for mom: Knit in class to complete the leg. Spent two days looking for the missing dpn, found it in the other socks I've been working on.
