How My Socks are Like Sally Field, or An Interruption of Revision

I interrupt the revision of "Shattered" for some knitting news:  the Sockapaloooza socks have arrived in Germany, and Sabine reports that she likes them.  She really likes them!  She hasn’t yet had a chance to try them on, so keep your fingers (or toes) crossed for a good fit.  Knitting socks for a perfect stranger was possibly one of the most nervewracking activities of my recent life.

Today is my last day of school.  I told my sister this morning that I was going to keep working until I was done, whether it’s six p.m. or midnight.  I’m picking up moving boxes via Freecycle at 12:30, then I’m hunkering down in my office until everything is finished.  What’s everything?  Here’s the list:

  • Finish revision of "Shatter"
  • Finish revision of "Bracelets"
  • Grade last three student portfolios
  • Submit grades
  • Work for Taos Summer Writers’ Conference
  • Register for classes

I’m having a moving sale (they’re not called tag sales in NM, I was informed) on Saturday, then my UNM crew is coming over on Saturday night for a send off.  Tomorrow I’ll be gathering everything that I don’t plan to move and putting a price tag on it.  So if you’re in the Albuquerque area, come by between 9 and 3 and get a piece of me!  Leave a comment with your e-mail if you need directions.

Ok, back to work…

  1. Good luck with the sale and the impending move! I am right behind ya!
    Sorry I won’t come by to buy you stuff – I am trying to get rid of mine. (and we aren’t allowed to do moving/garage/tag sales in our condo area)

  2. Congrats on finishing the semester! I’m so bummed that I can’t come to your garage sale. I love garage sales! But thanks for keeping the dishes for me. I’ll totally use them.
