Sock

I finished the first sock for my sister's birthday in July. I've only been working on it since March. Urgh, it's been a horrible year for socks; since I now have to drive to work every day I've lost almost 10 hours a week in knitting time. It sucks.

I am going to have to hustle a bit to get this second sock done.

Current Weather
Partly cloudy 18C.

Update on Squish

Squish is not well. He's eating a special kidney cat food. Fortunately, he seems to like it; so far at least. Unfortunately, Mouse also seems to like it. I was worried he would refuse to eat it.

All of this means I'm very afraid that Squish is not much longer for this world. Kidney failure is not a good thing; it is a fatal condition. Must make sure I get plenty of Squish love while I still can. Loosing him is going to be devastating. He was my first pet that was my pet not the family pet. I'm also not sure how well Mouse will do once he's gone.

Knitting

Did some math on the new cotton sweater and I came up short. So, I went on a yarn hunt and miracle, of miracles; I found some! Same dye lot and everything. Sweet!

Current Weather
Mostly cloudy, 24C.

Hot, hot, hot. Actually it cooled off a bit today. We passed 30C several times in the past week. In June no less.
