WIP it out and Poker

So, what else is new? I played poker again last night and was the first one out in the tourney. That was the first time I was the first one out. Oh well. Gave me plenty of time to work on my sock. So I knit and waited for others to get knocked out and eventually enough went out that we got a side table together. People hate seeing this:

Yeah, it's a little blurry, but you get the idea. I won the side table and knit the entire time. I've got a knickname now...I'm...yep, you guessed it...

THE KNITTER

Beware the knitter!

I also thought I would show you a picture of the camera-shy sweater. First, allow to me explain that the sweater is not this purple color as it appears in the picture. In reality, it's a deep navy blue. But you see, the sweater doesn't like to be photographed, and my camera doesn't like it much either. Anyways, here it is...


I thought that maybe if I stuck the sock in with it that it wouldn't be as camera shy. Yeah, you see how well that worked. You can see a little bit of pattern in there. It's the Cape Cod sweater from Lionbrand. I'm using Wool-Ease because it's machine washable and I had a ton lying around the house.

Today is the work picnic. I have my camera, ready to get incriminating pictures of my coworkers. I also get to go see when I can move into my new abode tonight. Hopefully tomorrow is the answer to that question. Or tonight, I'd even take tonight. I packed up almost all my yarn into a big storage bin (I was amazed it all fit in there) so it's ready to go. I also have all my video games and DVDs packed too. What, you mean I need to take clothing with me? I haven't packed that yet! I got the most important things packed...games and yarn! Food, you mean I should have food there too? I guess I should maybe pack some more this afternoon while my squash casserole bakes.

I suppose I should get a little work done since I'm leaving at noon to go cook a casserole and slice tomatoes for this picnic. Have a great weekend!

Knit on...

OK, I missed something somewhere. You're moving??? You're getting your own place? What gives?
