What's knitting today?

I'm leaving tomorrow for a mini vacation - 96 miles away. I'm going to my bestfriend's house five days! Staying there is like staying a a posh hotel - very cool. And, she has A/C!

Wednesday night, we are doing to Sterling Heights to hear Michael McDonald in concert! Woo-hoo. What a voice. We are leaving early Wednesday morning so we can take our time and shop along the way. I'm hoping to find some fiber and fabric stores!

My friends birthday was August 3rd and we haven't gotten together to celebrate yet so we will while I'm there. I'm knitting her a scarf to go with her new, ivory wool winter coat. It's almost finished - just a few more rows. I think I might add some beaded trim -" 'cause she'd like that, ya' know?" I'll go look later this afternoon and see what I can find.

I've been sewing a lot lately. I'm into making nightgowns and skirts. The nightgowns because I just love loungewear, and the skirts are in anticipation of a job I would love get - I DESPERATELY WANT THIS JOB. I interviewed for it on August 3 for 2.5 hours and I think it went really well. I checked with them again vi email on August 17th and received an email back saying "no progress", and no decision yet. "Don't they know I'm dieing to know?" I'm hoping my skirt sewing will generate some good karma.

gotta fly, it's time to stash (I mean dash) ..........................

.....Don't bother me.....I'm in a SNIT.
