Dana… this is another post you should not read….thanks!

Ok… now that it’s safe…….

I have been knitting today on the gift project and on the Rogue sleeve.  I am having to be quite secretive about knitting on the gift, though.

(wow… look who’s gonna need a face lift????)

This is me, knitting on the couch, taking it easy, clearing off the Tivo.  See that little bulge under the red blanket that makes it look like I might be 5 mos. pregnant (ok, maybe a little low for "pregnant" but you get the idea) … that’s the gift knitting hiding below the blanket.  So the day has gone like this:

Dana leaves the room, I drop the Rogue sleeve and grab the gift project.

I hear Dana heading back towards the room, I drop the gift asap and grab Rogue.

This has made my knitting today a bit schizophrenic but so far I have succeeded in not performing the Rogue instructions on the gift knitting and vice versa.  So far… if I keep this up, however, it is bound to happen.

At the end of the day the Rogue sleeve is about half done and the gift’s piece #2 is a little more than half done.  I think I will have some alone time tomorrow to work on the gift some more.  As of this moment I think there is no way I will make it to church in the morning.  Even if I’m feeling a bit better the hacking cough will just distract everyone.  So… Dana and AG will go to church and I will rest on the couch.  And knit.  If I can keep from getting distracted I should make some good progress during those few hours.
