Good grief, this is a long week. Tough one, too. My bestest boss ever, K, told us he has found a new job, a good one for him, ED of an agency in the next county. While I am really happy for him, I am going to miss him tremendously. And I have no idea what the succession plan is. Makes it stressful. I hope that the big boss is making a great plan and lets us know what it is soon.
Today I decided to make a little photo book for K to commemorate his 30 years at the agency – an incredibly long time. I went through a ton of photos today, and found some good ones, but it makes me so sad. Not sure I will finish it. Funny thing was, after I had gotten a whole lot of old photos (pre-digital) I went down the hall and found a co-worker putting together a PowerPoint slide show of the same things! Great minds.
So I have not been in the craft room much this week. But I did finish a funny purple hat, and picked up the lace shawl I have been working on, on and off, for over a year. It is from Nancy Bush’s Estonian knitting and it is beautiful but not something easy to pick up and put down. I haven’t got much to go on it, so I decided I need to work on it and just finish it. Now I just have to figure out where I left off. 🙂 Friday is a “knitting day” at Mom’s, I think I will have to bring a different project to work on there, because I won’t be able to focus on the shawl. I can’t do ANYTHING but knit when I work on that – no chatting or watching TV. So I work on it evenings, and in the morning before work. But I can’t even finish a row in the morning, so it is slow going.
