LOL ... I don't have that kind of skill! This is pretty uneven but I'm hoping when I wash it it'll even out a bit! Not bad for first knitted thing in ~10 years.
Sounds impressive to me!

Nearly done four weeks of fun triathlon training. Really really really did not want to run tonight (and when I say run I mean shuffle/ jog at walking pace while trying not to trip over my dog), but I did it. And Beth just counted me through the stretches in her sleep. She's hit a post leaving job, home, family, friends and country wall today and is super tired, but still smiling :)

American celebration successful! We've eaten our weight in tacos, now ready to go home, get legally married, and twiddle my thumbs for two months while I wait for FLR(M).

Anyone else struggling a bit today? Honestly, I feel spoiled, because I just got a whole week with my husband...and I figured I'd be distracted because of the eclipse, but it just seems to be underlining the fact that I'll be doing yet another thing solo.

Totally get that but try not to let it spoil the eclipse for you. Chin up! :D
